It’s official: the gays have forgiven Alexander Skarsgård for that bait-and-switch gay sex moment in True Blood. Either that, or they’re unaware of it, because after his appearance at Cannes, he’s back to being a gay icon. All it took was a cheeky leather look, and all was absolved.

Promoting his new movie Pillion, which is being described as a “kinky gay BDSM movie,” Say no more!
Skarsgard took to the runway wearing tight leather pants and a tee depicting a Tom of Finland-style boot-licking scene. Needless to say, the gays were hot, bothered, and deeply ready for this look.
Now I know what you’re thinking: is this queerbaiting? If it is, it’s far from the first time Skarsgård has participated in the pastime. Back in the True Blood days, Skarsgård filmed several gay sex scenes, vers queen that he is. But in terms of his own sexuality, we’re saddened to report that he still identifies as straight.
Obviously this shrewd publicity move is working, because now everyone is interested in seeing Pillion. Does it involve more of these cute leather looks? Are we gonna get a glimpse of that tush? Stay tuned for updates on this very important beat.
