London, March 31 (Inditop.com) “Avatar” star Sam Worthington thinks wearing a skirt for his role in “Clash of Titans” has helped boost his career.

The actor, who plays Perseus, son of the gods in the new remake, says he wasn’t embarrassed about wearing a skirt as it is something he has seen other Australian actors do in their movies, reports contactmusic.com

“The upside is that it’s very well ventilated. Look, Russell Crowe wore one for ‘Gladiator’, Eric Bana wore one for ‘Troy’, Mel Gibson wore one for ‘Braveheart’,” he said.

“I think it was the next logical step in my career. I think it’s something every young Australian actor has to do, isn’t it? You earn your chops for putting on the dress,” he added.
