The Pirelli calendar, once synonymous with overt sexuality and glamour, has undergone a significant transformation in recent years. The 2025 edition, shot by celebrated fashion photographer Ethan James Green, continues this evolution, presenting a bold and contemporary vision of beauty and identity.
The upcoming calendar is to be a celebration of diversity, authenticity, and a redefined sense of sensuality. The cast, featuring a mix of Hollywood stars, models, and cultural icons, including Vincent Cassel, John Boyega, Jodie Turner-Smith, Hunter Schafer, Padma Lakshmi, Simone Ashley, and many more, represent a wide range of backgrounds and experiences. Green’s approach focuses on capturing the individual essence of each subject, highlighting their unique beauty and charisma. The result is a series of striking portraits that are both intimate and empowering.
