In an appearance on The Graham Norton Show, actor Chris Pine discussed social media’s obsession with his full frontal scene in the upcoming Outlaw King. The scene has gotten more attention than the film itself, with our own Rachel Leishman conducting a peenstaking painstaking look at the cultural significance of the scene.
“There’s a scene in the film where I bare the full Monty and, yeah, that seemed to get a lot of attention,” Pine said, while fellow guest Sally Field interjected with “well, yeah!” to audience laughter. Rami Malek, who was also on the couch, had questions about what a “full monty” entails, which Norton joked was both the front and the back. Pine followed up by calling it, “Different strokes for different folks, as it were.”
