(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Alexander Skarsgrd is a "romantic" but would never break the law for love.

The actor, who has been linked to Charlize Theron recently, has opened up about the lengths he would go to for a girl. In the film Battleship, his character breaks into a shop to steal a burrito to impress a woman. However, Alexander insists he would never go that far for the opposite sex.

"I've not broken the law I hate to disappoint you," he told UK magazine Cosmopolitan. "But I am a romantic I think it's in the little things."

One girl who has caught Alexander's attention is his co-star Rihanna. He praised the singer for her looks and talent.

"Yeah, she's beautiful," he said. "And she's so hard-working. We would shoot on a Friday, then she'd fly from Hawaii to Los Angeles to perform at the MTV Awards, then she'd be back again."

Alexander rose to fame playing vampire Eric Northman in hit series True Blood. He has no problem stripping down for nude scenes throughout the show.

"No, I'm comfortable with that," he said. "It's not like I shy away from it."

He also joked about the True Blood audience seeing his rear as much as his face. However, he admits the nudity has helped shoot him to stardom.

"That's the money shot! People get bored when they see my face," he said.

"They don't recognise my face; they recognise my ass." (C) Cover Media
