The star of Sex/Life is literally baring all in the drama series which ranked No 2 in Australia on Netflix this week.
Demos, from NSW's Illawarra region, put on quite a raunchy display in the steamy Netflix series, which included a full-frontal shower scene in episode 3.
The 35-year-old told Entertainment Weekly that it was really him for that scene and not a body double, saying that he was comfortable with the nudity.
"I was okay with it because you read the script and know what you're getting yourself into from the start, so I don't think you would sign on to a show after reading the scripts and then say no last minute," he said. "That doesn't mean you can't have discussions about comfort level, which they allowed us to have - and with the intimacy coordinator, so it felt a lot safer."
The former Dapto juniors rugby league player is quickly making a name for himself in Hollywood.
Demos charmed viewers as Jake Taylor in Netflix's Falling Inn Love and is now kicking goals as the sexy yet slightly toxic Brad Simon in Sex/Life.
The character Brad Simon is a dreamy yet dangerous music mogul who emerges from Billie's (Sarah Shahi) past to turn her marriage and suburban life upside down.

The series, inspired by BB Easton's novel 44 Chapters About 4 Men, retells the story of Billie's rollercoaster relationship with Brad - how it started, how badly it ended and every raunchy detail in between..
Australian sensuality expert and cognitive coach Alina Rose Berdi is no fan though, saying Sex/Life gets quite a bit wrong in its depiction of female desire.
"The show gives all power to the men in igniting Billie's desire... when she had that passion all along. And when she displays it, we see Cooper more than willingly along for the ride." She also argued the show puts female arousal through a masculine lens.
"Billie is painted to enjoy very masculine-oriented, hungry and fast sex... which is actually unsustainable for a lot of women."
