Here’s hoping Djimon Hounsou likes hanging out in his undies. The oscar-nominated actor is set to model for underwear giant Calvin Klein in April this year. The African-born, award-winning actor, whose muscular physique stood out in such films as Amistad',
Gladiator’, and most recently, `Blood Diamond’, will be featured in a global print and outdoor campaign supporting the launch of the brand’s latest product line, Calvin Klein Steel. Djimon is the ninth man to be featured in a Calvin Klein Underwear campaign and the first actor in over a decade. other past Calvin Klein Underwear models have included fellow thespian Mark Wahlberg, international soccer star Freddie Ljungberg and U.S. olympic pole vaulter Tom Hintanhaus.
