Alexander Skarsgård is addressing comments he made about his sexuality while promoting his new BDSM film, Pillion. Skarsgård, 49, was asked at the 2025 Zurich Film Festival what he brought from his own life to the upcoming film, which follows timid Colin (Henry Melling) as he meets confident biker Ray (Skarsgård), who initiates him into a submissive relationship. "I mean, I do have a kid, but what I've done in the past, who I've been with, men, women...," Skarsgård explained at the time.
