Schwarzenegger 'embarassed' by nude scenes

Arnold Schwarzenegger finds nude scenes "embarrassing".

The 67-year-old actor - who had to strip off for his latest movie 'Terminator Genisys' - has admitted, despite his worries, he enjoys the risque scenes.

He said: "[Nude scenes] are embarrassing, but fun. It leads to funny conversations and funny dialogue and great humour and everything like that.

"It's inevitable, you have to do it because it's what the movie shows, and there are certain times you can cover things up, and there are certain times you don’t and you can’t. So what? I don’t think there's anyone here that has anything to hide."

Arnold's co-star Emilia Clarke instantly quipped back: "Well, I had a few things I tried to hide!

"Naked in a harness was fun – doing stunts, that was good."

The film's director Alan Taylor also revealed it wasn't just the actors stripping off on set.

Speaking at a press conference to promote the film, he added to PEOPLE magazine: "We had a wonderful AD named Phil Patterson who would always get half-naked whenever there was a nude scene.

"She'd wander around looking beautiful and then there was Phil, not looking quite good. A team player."
