Move over, Barry Keoghan – it’s Conor McGregor’s time to shine on screen.
The tattooed fighter with the UFC brand – motto: As Real As It Gets – is set to emulate Barry’s famous naked Saltburn moment after appearing in the buff for his acting debut in new movie Road House.

Move over, Barry Keoghan – Conor bares all
I can reveal Conor’s arrival on camera sees him strut through a market fully naked for 55 seconds – leaving almost nothing to the imagination.
He is clearly not shy about putting on a show, as the scene features lingering looks at his bum.
Making light of stripping off, the sportsman said: “It was a little too much ass. Just a little too much.
“The last shot was not necessary – could have just been the back.” But he added: “I’m just here to perform. I thought, ‘I’ll do it. I don’t mind’. It’ll shock people.”
Speaking at the Prime Video film’s premiere in London’s Mayfair this week, alongside Hollywood hunk Jake Gyllenhaal, Conor revealed that he’d brought his mum along but deliberately kept her in the dark about his X-rated scene.
He said: “My mother . . . is about to see the movie for the first time and I have told her nothing. So, mother, there’s a scene – I hope you enjoy it!”
If reports are to be believed and Conor has netted a £4.3million payday for the role, that works out at nearly £269,000 for each of the 16 minutes he’s on screen.
I’ve no interest in stripping off for a shot but for that much dosh I would gladly ditch my clothes for good.
