The Kung Fu Panda actor admits he is not keen on promoting the work he is ashamed of. He said: “You don’t just do something to do it. When you do a good movie you feel good at promoting it.

“When it’s a bad movie you want to release it quietly. You try to keep it a secret like an STD.”

However, Jack is not embarrassed by Tenacious D in the Pick of Destiny – a fictional film about his comedy rock band – despite it being a major flop at the box office.

He said: “I really liked the Tenacious D movie. I was proud of that one.”

The 38-year-old star recently revealed he wants to lose weight so he can appear in more nude scenes.

He said: “When I saw my rear end in my nude scene in Margot at the Wedding, it actually had a double chin. I’ve joined a gym because the next time you see me naked I’ll be trim.”
