Proving it takes a village to get the shot, an assistant was seen standing in the background throwing buckets of water on the Oscar-winning star as he tensed up for the shot. He wasn't the only man giving the girls a run for their money, with French actor Vincent , 57, looking decades younger than his age as he posed shirtless with his toned arms on display. Clad in a pair of white trousers, the César Award winner showed off his best fighting moves as he lunged for the camera while throwing his hands up in fists.
Having earned a legion of fans with her role in Bridgerton, Simone, 29, rocked a look that would make Lady Whistledown blush, consisting of a sheer bodysuit with modesty panels . Queen & Slim star Jodie, 37, opted for a more conservative ensemble yet still exuded sex appeal as she posed in a figure-hugging bronze dress with the spaghetti straps suggestively sliding down her shoulders . Pirelli said the photographer had attempted to 'capture and amplify the essence of his subjects' in this year's calendar.
It said of Ethan: 'Working in themes such as contemporary identity, sexuality, and style, he has built a body of work singular in its depth and point of view.'

In 1987, Naomi Campbell featured on the calendar at just 16, while other stars to have been photographed for it include Patti Smith, Serena Williams, Yoko Ono, Grimes, Alicia Vikander , St Vincent, Cara Delevingne , Emma Watson , Whoopi Goldberg , Nicole Kidman and Iggy Pop .

The spread featured Robin Wright, Julianne Moore, Charlotte Rampling, and Helen Mirren (then aged 50, 55, 70, and 71 respectively) and was hailed a triumph for its representation of older women. The Pirelli calendar was once synonymous with scantily-clad women, sizzling photo shoots and topless models.
However, the 2020 calendar saw A-list stars including Emma Watson, Kristen Stewart and Claire Foy pose fully clothed - in everything from denim jackets to period costumes - as they each take on the role of Shakespeare's Juliet. The spread, shot by celebrated fashion photographer Paolo Roversi, was dubbed the 'wokest' Pirelli calendar to date . The dramatic departure from the glamour shots of the 80s and 90s is a clear signal that Pirelli is determined to shed its racy image once and for all, following a string of similarly progressive calendars in recent years.

The Crown's Claire Foy even dons a grey knitted cardigan in one of the behind-the-scenes shots. In 2020, those featured were all in their 20s and 30s but have all made headlines for their outspoken views on social political issues.
The full line-up included: Emma Watson, Claire Foy, Kristen Stewart, Yara Shahidi, Mia Goth, Rosalia, Indya Moore, Chris Lee and Stella Roversi. The calendar was not published in 2021 due to the Covid pandemic, the only year it has not been published since 1964. Last year's edition saw Prince Gyasi become the first black photographer to shoot a Pirelli Calendar in celebration of its 60th anniversary.
The Ghanaian's work saw Campbell return to the calendar for the first time since 2018, and Luther star Idris Elba and former Chelsea and AC Milan footballer Marcel Desailly feature on pages.
