Don Jon - Joseph Gordon Said Doing Nudity "Would Be Distracting"

Our ardent passion for Joseph Gordon-Levitt has dimmed-not completely, however the wattage is certainly lower. Within an interview about his new movie, Don Jon, the writer, director, star says he didn't get naked for the part because “it could you need to be distracting.”

Sorry, JGL, don’t desire to ruin your Godfather moment!

“It’s really not the idea of the movie,” he tells Q Syndicate. “This is simply not a movie of brutal realism; it’s a comedy and it’s a tale. It’s type of a parable, so there would really be no reason to possess any nudity.”

How come showing male nudity in an enchanting comedy considered “brutal realism”? Did you involve some horrible accident with a thresher once you were a youngster? You’ve
clearly been hitting the weights, Joseph Gordon-Levitt-don’t deprive us of the fruit of one's labor.

The “perfect man” (as Buzzfeed crowned him) spoke about various things, too:

You use the term “faggot” at one point in the film, and although it feels appropriate to the type, was there ever a discussion or any hesitation to employ a word that lots of in the gay community find offensive?

As if you said, that character would say that at that time. It’s at an instant when he’s type of feeling threatened. His buddy just said that there is a hotter girl at the club than his girl, therefore for the reason that moment of insecurity he uses that word. I believe that’s usually where that type of hateful language originates from: out of people’s insecurity.

With Don Jon as well as your new beefy body, are you currently prepared for the excess attention you can find from the gay community?

(Laughs) I hadn’t considered it. My body’s nothing like that anymore. I was training each day to play that character, but bodybuilding isn’t really my thing. I’ve lost the majority of the weight.

There’s been talk of you starring in a remake of Guys and Dolls with Channing Tatum. Should we be prepared to see you inside it?

It’s one possibility. Chan and I like the thought of performing a musical together, and we’re focusing on making that happen. We don’t know just how it'll happen or what it’ll be or just how long it’ll take, but we’re determined to accomplish it.

Sigh, could it be a great deal to require a steam-room scene with Sky Masterson and Nathan Detroit?
