MTV.com’s Josh Horowitz sat down with Lawless costars Shia Lebeouf and Jessica Chastain, and got Shia to confirm that he’ll definitely be doing Lars von Trier‘s Nymphomaniac and that he’ll be dropping trou and having sex on camera and so on.

The Hollywood Reporter‘s Pamela McClintock has reported that Nymphomaniac “follows the erotic adventures of a woman (Charlotte Gainsbourg) from her youth to age 50, as recounted to her husband (Stellan Skarsgard).”

No clue how LaBeouf’s role fits into this, but he’ll presumably engage with Gainsbourg in some capacity.

Von Trier “is splitting the English-language project into two films and will shoot a softer and more explicit version of each,” McLintock added.
