Back in the States for barely a week and Ryan Lochte has already gone Hollywood.

Well, literally, the gold-medal-amassing Olympic swimmer was actually there Wednesday for The Expendables 2 premiere, where he dished to E! News about his day on the 90210 set and—eek!—being "more than willing to do Dancing WIth the Stars."

First things first, though, Lochte definitely appears to have been bitten by the acting bug.

"Everyone was really nice—I mean, it was my first acting gig," he said of shooting a cameo for 90210. "All the cast members they helped me out and walked me through it, and it was a piece of cake."

Well, he does mention in the above clip that by the "fourth or fifth" take he had the hang of it.

And while the 28-year-old Florida resident has expressed interest in more acting, we couldn't help but express more interest in his willingness to follow in the footsteps of Olympians like Apolo Ohno and Shawn Johnson and do Dancing With the Stars.

"I feel I have a couple of moves," Lochte revealed. Better yet, asked if he would be scared to take his shirt off on the hit show, he practically scoffed in our faces.

"I'll definitely be ready for that," he assured us.
