PICS: Moonlight cast pose for Calvin Klein

Cape Town – The cast of Moonlight posed for Calvin Klein’s Spring ’17 Men’s Underwear Campaign and boy do they look good.

In breathtaking black and white images – taken by photographer Willy Vanderperre – three of the men, plus 12-year-old Alex R. Hibbert, who were part of the Academy Award winning film modelled the brand’s new range.

Here they are:

1. Mahershala Ali

Resonant: “Even after the performance is over, I realize that you still have to service it. I’ll be in a coffee shop and someone will come up to me and just open a vein…telling me how this struck a nerve for them, what their experience was." ? —@MahershalaAli, the Academy Award winner for Best Supporting Actor, wearing the 100% Cotton Crew Neck T-Shirt and Cotton Stretch Trunk with Slim Cut Jeans. ?

Star power: For nearly 20 years @MahershalaAli has toiled in television and film—or, as he put it, “working 16 years to be an overnight sensation." ??????? —Oscar winner Mahershala Ali, wearing the 100% Cotton Crew Neck T-Shirt. ???????
