Christopher Atkins is the cover of the new issue of Playgirl

Oooooh, he's still sexy

He could still pull off a nude layout again. I’m definitely hoping!

Even recycled ones would be nice.

New spread by Greg Gorman again. Says that there will be more photos in the actual issue. I don’t know if he would take it all off again but it’s great that they’re bringing him back. I can’t believe how great he looks. He posted a photo of his son and his grandson and he looks like he could be the father of his little grandson.

Christopher happily signs nude photos of himself for gay fans.

Is his hairline real? That’s an incredible head of hair.

The amount of spunk spanked out by gay boys beating off to Christopher Atkins in The Blue Lagoon back in the day could've populated a small nation.

Greg Gorman also photographed him nude for Gorman's book AS I SEE IT back in the 2000s when Atkins was in his forties, so it's a strong possibility I think.

R7 don't forget "A Night in Heaven" where he played a stripper opposite Leslie Ann Warren.

I remember rewinding ad nauseam the scene where she grabs his crotch and takes off his pants to reveal a semi.

No nudes on the Playgirl+ website so far. I’m genuinely disappointed. But, yes I spanked it ferociously to his original Playgirl layout back in ‘82. Gawd he had a beautiful ass back then!

He aged well

R8 Yup those photos are scorching hot!

Apparently there are more pics coming out on July 22. Maybe those will be nudes?

R8 did not show up for me.

Here are the "As I See It" photos again.

Thanks OP, what a happy day this is.

He’ll be eligible for Medicare in February.

I have "The Blue Lagoon" and "The Pirate Movie" signed by him. Thanks CHILLER!

I may be in the minority but I think he's even hotter now then he was back then. And he was HOT.

Shrimp

Pumpin’ Blowin’ from the Pirate Movie, warbled by Kristy McNichol while Christopher Atkinson cavorts through an improbable underwater world in what appears to be the same loincloth that he wore in Blue Lagoon.

R7 Well then the amount of spunk released to his original Playgirl should have been enough to populate at least a city or two!

Eeew,

Christopher Atkins is 64.

I have seen Christopher Atkins naked many times playing volleyball at nude Black's Beach in San Diego. He used to be a regular at Black's, not so much nowadays.

It's a long climb down the cliff and a helluva climb up, but it's a gorgeous beach and worth it. And legally nude.

R9, start spanking.

Yes it was...............

Those Playgirl pics look like they're the product of a fair amount of photoshopping.

R28, every photo is but there are bts photos of the shoot and he looks the same.

Didn’t Playgirl stop publishing nudes about ten years ago? Trying to clean up its image?

“The curse and the blessings of being a teen idol. And a sex symbol.”

They taped an interview not long ago and it was when Brooke had put out her documentary about being sexualized in the industry and we talked about me being sexualized and I said in the interview, well I was too. In every film I did, I had to show my ass, you know. I was sexualized, I said, but I liked it and the interview never aired, they wanted dirt. I didn’t have any problem with it. The interesting aspect to me was the gay aspect and how huge that fan base became. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had people come on and that sort of stuff. And except for one time in San Francisco, people were usually very polite and nice and thoughtful and said what they felt and how the movie moved them and I was always very proud of that, proud of the fact that people could feel comfortable saying that. It means a lot. The only other negative side is that I got pigeonholed a little bit. But at the same time, I wouldn’t change anything, it’s just what it is. I’ve been blessed by some of the things that I got a chance to do. For instance, Columbia Pictures put me under contract for four years. That was kind of a big deal back then, the first time supposedly since the old MGM days that an actor was put under a studio contract. But they just didn’t do anything with it, I was sitting there waiting and waiting and waiting. 20th Century Fox bought me out to do A Night in Heaven and The Pirate Movie.

“It’s 1980, you and Richard Gere in American Gigolo made male nudity ‘mainstream.’ “He was every woman’s fantasy,” boasted the trailer of A Night in Heaven. But for gay men of the 80s you were also “every man’s fantasy.” You became the poster child of the gay rights movement –and not only in the United States.”

I did an interview in New York and they asked me that question: do I know why I was so popular in the gay community, besides the obvious? In that time in history, they said, police and mayors and prominent people were coming out and it was a big thing to do and here comes this movie that celebrates male nudity. We kind of gave that poster boy to that community at a time when they needed the championing.

“If you were to film today, you’d wear a prosthetic penis, sadly, and have an intimacy coordinator on set, especially for the love making scenes. What’s your take on intimacy coordinators?”

I could teach them a thing or two. Do I need directions after all those movies with me naked and having sex?

I always loved his normal sized penis and beautiful bush and hot body!

R30 Nope. They still publish nudes on the online version.

R31,32 Where are these interviews from?

R25, that is the same nude beach that DL faves Julian Morris & Landon Ross are known to visit:

He seems like a cool guy and has certainly aged like fine wine.

R4 that’s a real fucking stretch. Calm down!

R35, see r4.

No it’s not r47. You didn’t see the photos.

I haven’t seen any photos of him with grandkids with this PG release.

No new nudies OP. Sigh. A letdown for sure.
