Hollywood actor Sam Worthington has revealed he enjoyed stripping off for his role in Avatar because he loves to be naked.

The Australian actor who stars as a blue alien called Jake Sully in the 3-D animated film by James Cameron insists he didn't solely rely on technology for the role, reports list.co.uk.

"I had nothing on. I had a loincloth on and they painted me blue, basically," he said.

"I was thinking if this is how you make a big budget movie, then I'm mad enough to be a part of it. I would do that most times, doesn't matter if James Cameron wants me to do it. I do it most times. He had to struggle to put clothes on me," he added.

The 33-year-old also credited Cameron for changing his life and career. "Before I met Jim I was sleeping in my car. He's plucked me from obscurity. He changed my life, so to speak," he said.
