Christopher Abbott says his nudity in Catch-22 is "justified"

Christopher Abbott’s Star-Making Vehicle

It's probably the only reason to watch.

Is male nudity ever not justified?

He's been my crush since Girls so I guess I have to check this out now just to see his butt. Horrible reviews, though.

He's aged since girls. Still looks good though. Why did he really leave the show?

He was amazing in James White.

r4 He looks pretty youthful to me still in the pic at r5?

He's very cute.

He looks younger than 33, IMO.

No full frontal, but lots of teasing.

Disappointing. I wasn't dying to watch Catch-22, so I won't subscribe. Had there been dong, OTOH...

please post the nudity!

I like that SNL's Jon Rudnitsky's on the show. He's always been hunky.

CA being nude in "Catch 22" is better than Alan Arkin being nude in "Catch-22." Much better.

It’s justified in that if he didn’t do the nude scene, he wouldn’t have been cast.

I always wonder how people who do nude scenes cope with the fact that parents and other family will see the movie. Having been sexually abused, I would never ever feel safe with that.

If there's no penis, it's not nudity.

It was absolutely justified, because he's cute!

Parents, and often other family members, have seen them nude before.

I’m on episode 3 and so far there’s only been the one butt shot.

But there is a lot of beefcake in this show.

That young man's nudity justifies itself.

The scenes where is coverd up by clothing need justification, if they are to stand.

Is this the one George Clooney directed? Remember the love and tenderness Clooney photographed Sam Rockwell's butt in Confessions of a Dangerous MInd and his thanking Michael Fassbender's penis at the Golden Globes?

I hope he has a nice cut cock.

So much man candy on display.

Bomber sorties recreated are great.

Clooney and Healov can’t direct for shit. It’s a very cold show.

Abbott is the best thing about it.

So is Kyle Chandler in khaki.

Clooney is such a closet case.

I see dick

I like its pitch of dark comedy.i think the dark is handled much better than one of the overplayed comedic material however.

^^ some

Thought the first was boring garbage. Pretentious crap. I'll always pity poor Stacy Keach for not being existential enough for Mike Nichols.

I just started watching “Catch-22” on my new Fire TV Cube, and love the show. I think Christopher Abbott (Yo-yo) is to die for, and I always had a crush on Rafi Gavron (Aarfy), since I first saw him in “A Star Is Born”.

So many cute guys on the show!

You guys should watch the film first, then you will have a better understanding of the show.

I rolled my eyes when I first saw the nude blonde slut in the first episode. Clooney and Heslov cannot do sensuality.

The Nichols film was really not very good. Probably not an easy book to adapt.

I get him confused with Chris Messina

R35...that’s what I thought he looked like. For the longest time, Christopher Abbott reminded me of another actor.

Yeah. Truly identical.

They could be brothers.

You must be one of those DLers who see "gay identical twins" everywhere, r38.

Chris Messina could play his older brother.

They both have the same first name, that’s odd!

I'd rather they play boyfriends.

He's got GAY lips.

I thought Christopher Abbott looked like Jon Snow?

Question mark, r44? Upspeak or haven't made up your mind yet?

I hope he's not mutilated.

R46-Anteaters are nasty.

Just finished the series, I had started it a while ago, but finally binged the rest of it. It was enjoyable, one of the more interesting things I’ve watched lately. I think they did a very good job evoking the time period, and the bombing runs were impressively well done.

There was plenty of eye candy, but not much nudity, until Christopher Abbot’s nudity at the end. Plenty of clear butt shots, and some out of focus dick flopping about. He certainly has nothing to be shy about.

I really enjoyed it when it came out in the summer. I ended up watching it twice. Abbott was excellent. I never read Heller's book so I probably am missing why some book readers hated it, but I always liked the Nichols film.

As for which other actor he reminds you of, Abbott and Kit Harington could absolutely play brothers. Hell, twin brothers. I like to imagine an updated Parent Trap where Kit is the snobby Brit who went to live with the mother, and Chris is the raunchy rough Yank twin who stayed with dad. They meet up as adults when one of the parents dies, and fall in love before they realize they're brothers. Hot.
