Jeremy Allen White stripped down to his boxers for Calvin Klein’s latest campaign on Tuesday — and in addition to revealing his killer abs, he opened up to GQ about what it’s like to model in his underwear.

The 33-year-old “Bear” star showed off his muscular frame in his second campaign for the American designer this year, posing shirtless in underwear and jeans in a series of fall/winter 2024 images.

The star sat poolside with playful dogs in one snap while wearing black Calvin Klein Modern Cotton Air low-rise boxer briefs ($55), while in another he lounged on a chair in gray Cotton Classics boxer briefs ($55).$70 $49) and white CK Crew socks ($24).

In other shots, the “Iron Claw” actor wears the brand’s jeans (but remains shirtless), posing with a black jacket draped around his elbows in one bare-chested shot and wearing an unbuttoned Calvin Klein 90s trucker jacket ($129) with the sleeves cut off in two other shots.

“I felt so insecure before the actual shoot, and it was kind of crazy,” White told GQ of his first time stripping down to his Calvin Klein in January, adding that he “woke up early” with a friend to snap a photo of his billboard before everyone saw it.

He described the reaction to his first raunchy campaign as “cool and surprising,” adding: “I mean, like so many things in my life right now, they’re all very cool and surprising.”

As for his latest foray into modeling, fans had an equally wild reaction, with one commenting on Calvin Klein’s Instagram post: “Please give this man a contract extension. We need to grow with him through these CK campaigns. – Sincerely, management.”

“CALVIN I thought we talked about this – I can’t take this anymore, it’s provocation!!,” another added, while a third commented: “Forgive me father as I zoomed in” on his grey underwear photo.

White, who will play Bruce Springsteen in the upcoming biopic “Deliver Me From Nowhere,” said he’s “more of a jeans guy” and is leaning toward a Canadian tuxedo.

“I don’t care what anyone says, I think denim on denim will always look cool,” the “Iron Claw” star said, adding that after wrapping her Calvin Klein photoshoot in April, denim became her “summer party staple.”

He also compared his love of denim to his new role, explaining that he sees Springsteen as “a guy who wears jeans and T-shirts.”

“It was exciting to know, going into this, that we had at least that in common,” White said of the “Born in the USA” rocker.

Maybe Calvin Klein will tap the “Born To Run” singer for its next campaign.
