The 46-year-old looks god-like as he struts down the white sandy beach and past a line of bikini clad women in the teaser clip.

Wearing nothing but the tiny ensemble, the actor's six pack and package is on full display and the girl's can't seem to keep their eyes off of him.
Jude then smirks as the camera cuts to the current pope making his way into the catholic church, followed by a woman in a blue and white dress fainting as he walks past to reveal the series' name 'The New Pope'.
The actor was spotted filming the trailer scenes in April on a beach in Venice, Italy.
He was joined by co-star Ludivine Sagnier, who plays Esther in the show.

The New Pope will not be a second series of The Young Pope but rather a "second limited series set in the world of the modern papacy", Variety reported.
Filming kicked off earlier this year and the series is set to premiere later this year.
In 2017, Jude dispelled claims he would reprise his role as the pope.
