Some men just have all the luck in the world.

Steve Zahn, a talented actor but never a headliner, spent three days even Hollywood's biggest would kill for.

The time in question was spent naked with Penelope Cruz [Images] and Salma Hayek [Images] filming their next project, Bandidas, in Mexico.

The actor's gruelling schedule involved him being stripped and tied to a bed, with the two Latino goddesses in a similar state of undress.

'Right after I finished Sahara, I flew off to a desert in Mexico to film Bandidas with Penelope and Salma Hayek. It's set in 1888, in Mexico. Penelope and Salma are a pair of Robin Hood-style bank robbers. I'm the American detective who's sent down to Mexico to capture them,' Zahn was quoted as saying by the Calgary Sun.

'They capture me and blackmail me by taking some risque photos of the three of us. I end up tied up naked on a bed with Salma and Penelope. I spent three days naked with the girls.

'I think it's safe to say I'm the envy of every man on the planet,' he added.

Indeed!
