Thomas Jane whores himself out beginning this Sunday, when Hung premieres on HBO at 10 p.m. But how dirty will he get? We found out at the series launch party last night, and we've got the word from Jane himself, plus some sneak peeks.

The Money Shot: Don't get your hopes up and expect to see Thomas' assets, even though the series is about sex: "I'm a c--k tease. Someday when they pay me $10 million, you'll see my c--k. We'll sneak that sucker in there," jokes Thomas. Long story short, the show is premium-cable dirty, but it's not actually porn.

Selling Out? Jokes Thomas about the series' poster campaign, which features his face with the caption ho, "HBO is taking care to make sure everybody in the f--king world knows that I'm a big ho. It's typecasting. Actors and prostitutes have a lot in common: Everyone once in a while we have to get up there and fake it."

The One: Thomas is not really a prostitute, of course, bring married as he is to Medium star Patricia Arquette. He told us that she is "the love of my life and always will be," and when asked what his wife thought about the posters on every billboard and bus stop for miles calling her husband a man-whore, Jane says: "She's known that from the beginning."
