The star and director ofCreed IIIgotcandid withETabout his steamy Calvin Klein campaign on the premiere red carpet Monday night.
When asked what it was like to see himself in next to nothing as part of the underwear brand’s iconic campaign spot, the actor said, “I was like, my mama gon' have to see this. Let me call her and be like, ‘I’m sorry. It’s out here.'” He hilariously continued, “My business all out in the streets — literally.”

The superstar detailed how proud he was, though, not only about starring in the campaign but seeing the rest of his cast members also achieving great things.
“This was, like, a moment, you know? Just to have everything come together at one time, it feels great,” he gushed. “And to be able to share that moment with my other actors, who are having a moment of their own as well, it just feels special. It feels like everything is happening at the right time.”
The other actor having a moment is his co-starJonathan Majors, who plays Jordan’s character’s long-time friend with whom he has to face in the boxing ring.
During the interview withET, Jordan praised Majors for hiscover shoot forEbonymagazine, which saw the actor nearly as naked as theBlack Pantherstar. Jordan joked with the reporter that he couldn’t be the only one naked on the streets.
The photo collection is in the underwear icon’s signature black and white color scheme and sawPEOPLE’s Sexiest Man Alivealum in a variety of the brand’s Athletic and Modern Cotton Performance underwear, though it’s safe to say the clothes took on a supporting role in the campaign.
Jordan’s Calvin Klein campaign images can be seen “in the streets” on the brand’s billboards in New York and Los Angeles.
