Calvin Klein has chosen actor Djimon Hounsou for their latest campaign.

The Hollywood star, who was nominated for Best supporting actor for ‘Blood Diamond’, will front the new Calvin Klein Steel underwear campaign.

Hounsou follows in the footsteps of actor Mark Wahlberg and footballer Freddie Ljungberg who have previously modelled for the company.

He said:" Representing such an iconic American brand like Calvin Klein Underwear signifies to me that I have been accepted."

" This carries more meaning for me than you can imagine. Dreams really do come true."

Tom Murry, president and chief operating officer at Calvin Klein told Vogue:

"Djimon's look and style complement his accomplished acting career and make him uniquely suited to represent the Calvin Klein Underwear brand and specifically the introduction of Steel."
