Michael Fassbender has joked that he stripped off on the big screen for his mum. The Kerry native bared all in his film Shame, where he starred as a man battling sex addiction.

The Light Between Oceans star has said that his mum feels that it’s always women who strip off for roles, while the man is covered up. So, he dedicated his naked scenes in Shame to his mum!

Speaking to the Irish Mirror Michael joked saying, “My mum always says when we’re watching a film, ‘Oh here we go again. The women are always naked and the guy is covered up.’ So i was like, ‘This one’s for you, Mum.'”

The 39-year-old also revealed that his parents have supported him from the moment he decided he wanted to be an actor. Although slightly apprehensive at first, once they saw him direct his first play at the age of seventeen, they knew how serious he was and were totally on board.

“They wanted me to go to university because they were of that generation when anybody who went to university had security and got a good job. They said, ‘Go to university first’ and I was like, ‘No i’m not going to waste time and money, I need to do this now.’

“They saw me put on that play and they thought, ‘s**t, he’s serious.’ When they saw that i’d made up my mind, they knew that’s what I was going to do and I have to say they supported me immediately after that,” he said.
