Alexander Skarsgård’s Wicker costume has woven its way into his heart.
Well, specifically, two pieces of it.
Indeed, the Swedish actor praised the fake nipples included with his full-body basket-like suit for his character of the Wicker Husband in the fantasy comedy.
“The suit, like I said, was exquisite,” Skarsgård shared during a recent appearance on The Graham Norton Show. “The best part of the whole suit were the nipples.”
“They were extraordinary,” he continued. “It’s the craftsmanship.”
To further highlight his special costume accessory, Skarsgård pointed to his costar Olivia Colman, who plays his on-screen wife Fisherwoman.
“You saw it,” he told Colman. “You felt them. You squeezed them.”
But the Pillion actor brought up the fake nipples for a reason, joking that he felt a connection between the prop and host Graham Norton.
“Every day when I was wearing them,” Skarsgård recalled, “putting them on—you screw them on—I was thinking of you, Graham.”
“For some very, very bizarre reason,” he continued, “and I have them here today, and I want to give them to you.”
