Michael B. Jordan Enjoys Filming Shirtless Scenes: ‘We’re Gonna Milk This’

Updated

Michael B. Jordan enjoys filming shirtless scenes — and the sentiment has Us feeling grateful.

The 36-year-old actor told The Hollywood Reporter in an interview published on Monday, July 17, that he doesn’t mind flashing his abs on the big screen. “We’re only going to be at this age once, to be physical and take my shirt off,” he explained. 

“I’m in my physical prime right now in this moment,” Jordan continued. “So, I have been like, ‘Yeah, we’re gonna milk this.” 

Jordan admitted, however, that providing Us with eye candy isn’t his only priority: “Lately, I’ve started to really think about and daydream about the future and what roles and what direction I want to go in, so there have been moments where I want to throw on a suit rather than a tank top.”

“[I’ve thought] maybe [I should] go for a shirt over a fitted tank, you know what I mean? My team and I have done a really great job at strategically figuring out when is good to be [People’s Sexiest Man Alive] or when it’s really cool to just chill and put on some sweats and a T-shirt,” Jordan told THR.

It’s out there,’” Jordan told ET Canada at the Creed III premiere. “My business all out in the streets — literally.”
