Cody Fern is used to shocking fans with his frightening performances in the American Horror Story franchise.
Whether playing the antichrist in American Horror Story: Apocalypse, trying to evade a camp slasher in American Horror Story: 1984, or being the mastermind behind a plot to replace the human race with aliens in American Horror Story: Double Feature, the 35-year-old has become quite the handsome scream king.
Here’s a refresher of all his roles in the Ryan Murphy-verse.
And while his latest actions have once again raised the heart rates of viewers, this time it’s for much more tantalizing reasons.
Earlier this week, the Australian actor had jaws dropping all over the internet as he shared a sultry thirst trap posing in his birthday suit.
Rocking a shaggy mane, black nail polish and nothing else, Fern flaunted his toned physique as he posed nude while sitting on a bed holding a remote control.
Anybody want to Netflix and chill?
The sexy image was actual part of a slideshow of photos the actor shared on Instagram. Fern played coy by burying the sizzling body-baring snap in a carousel that started with an innocuous shot of him smelling a gorgeous bouquet of flowers.
Even the caption didn’t allude to the fact that dedicated followers were about to get a major eyeful if they clicked through his photographs. “It’s not that serious after all,” Fern wrote.
He then ramped up the thirst with a shot of himself tanning shirtless in a white speedo on a lounge chair. But no one was prepared for what lied ahead in the scintillating third photo.
“Um please drop a warning on the 3rd pic, I fainted in Target,” wrote one follower.
“I’m getting slide 3 tattood [sic] on me,” added another fan.
“THE THIRD PIC I THINK HE WANTS ME DEAD,” another proclaimed in all caps.
While Fern’s current relationship status is unclear, he was previously linked to model/social media influencer Eric Smith.
Professionally, any fans who are able to compose themselves will hopefully soon get to see Fern back on the big screen.
The actor stars alongside Adam Lambert and Scoot McNairy in a film adaptation of Alysia Abbott’s memoir, Fairyland. Directed by Andrew Durham, the movie is a touching family story set against the backdrop of the LGBTQ+ liberation movement in San Francisco in the 1970s.
While the a release date has yet to be announced, Fairyland has been getting rave reviews and currently has a 97% on Rotten Tomatoes.
In the meantime, stans can get more familiar with Fern’s photographic pursuits by taking a gander at sizzling shots from his amazing Instagram account below:

I have never been a fan of nail polish on women. I especially do not like it on men.
CatholicXXX
It’s fine on women but disgusting on men
DBMC
I’m sure he’ll never wear it again because your feelings are so important to him.
dwick
that’s nice dear
boblrice
I’m sorry, but are you 90? Never been a fan of nail polish on women?

In the nude photo he looks like he’s nursing a severe hangover.
Love the ’50s lampshade hat though.
Matthewnow
He looks like a stoner
RyanMBecker
I like the doggie.

I actually never praise or laud anyone Queerty parades before us; it’s not my style and I simply won’t do it no matter how hot or gorgeous the dude may be. I’ll make an exception here. I like Cody’s body and I like his age. At 22, I do like bros in their mid 30’s. Amen!
Rambeaux
He could pass for actor, Andrew McCarthy’s son.
svustabler
Never thought about that but I can so see it now!

Seeing Sam in several acting jobs, I can’t see it…I guess Cody resembles a younger McCarthy, but mostly just the hair. IMO

so is he gay? or just makes for some nice instagram pictures?
skeldare
He’s queer
RyanMBecker
That’s 35? Nice. I guess I don’t have to dread turning 30 in a few years…

I believe that the saying “a dime a dozen” applies here. He probably thinks that as long as he displays some bare skin or being in his skimpy undies, he will remain somewhat in the public eye.

Okay just because your headline says steamy doesn’t actually make it the case. Definitely has a hot body and is pretty but he looks like he’s naked and squatting on the toilet (maybe that does it for you).
Sexiness is more than being ripped or pretty. No sexual energy coming across at all. Just gym rat street cred and novelty seeking.
