The Thor star confirmed that the controversial director has approached him to play the lead in his new project.
"Lars called me and said, 'Stellan, my next film will be a porno film, and I want you to play the lead in it,'" Skarsgård told E! News. "But then he said, 'You will not get to f**k.'"
In early August, von Trier said that Nymphomaniac will feature explicit sex scenes, including penetration.
The director was banned from the Cannes Film Festival in May after making a series of jokes about being a Nazi.
He later apologised, saying that his comments were "unintelligent, ambiguous and needlessly hurtful".
Von Trier's next project is the sci-fi drama Melancholia. It will be released in the UK on September 30, and will receive a limited release in US cinemas on November 11.
