abs in Wednesday’s first-look photos of the Swedish actor as the king of the jungle in The Legend of Tarzan, you’re in luck. The upcoming film’s first trailer, which also features the former True Blood star’s chiseled physique, offers a look at his core muscles in action.

The Legend of Tarzan-2016

In the teaser for the retelling of Edgar Rice Burroughs’ classic tale, Skarsgard, 39, races through the jungles of Africa, swings on vines, fights enemies, and leaps off cliffs — all while shirtless, naturally.
