Actor Shia LaBeouf stopped by Chelsea Lately last night to promote his new film Lawless, and although the flick looks promising, host Chelsea Handler made sure to get some deets about his Lars von Trier-directed movie, Nymphomaniac.

Especially when it came to those rumors about him having to participate in actual sex.

"I don't know what it's gonna be until I get out there," he told Handler. "I know he's a very dangerous director, I know we're trying to do something different. It's not your typical film. It's about what it's about."

So how does one even get a role like this?

"I sent him videotapes of me and my girlfriend having sex and that's how I got the job," he joked. At least, we think he was joking.
