It might not have been the OP's goal to discuss it, but this is actually quite a hot topic in cinema lately. The MPAA has a tendency to crack down on films with sexual content, so there is rarely ever nudity of any kind in PG-13 films. Yet on TV, particularly on the premium channels, there are very few (if any) restrictions. Then the issue becomes, how far can you push it before it becomes gratuitous or "distasteful"?
What I'd say to the OP is: To avoid nudity altogether is to seriously limit your exposure to great films. I've seen films where nudity is done very well, and films where I have indeed found it distasteful. I may be more jaded than most viewers on here, I have watched the likes of Game of Thrones and Shame (2011) with my father. Now, I'm not saying you should seek them out, but to pass on films like Braveheart, Titanic, The English Patient, Shakespeare in Love, etc. because they contain scenes of nudity seems a real shame to me.
If I had to hazard a guess of the trailers, I'd say there will be at least one love scene in this film. What you do with that information is up to you. I think the movie looks pretty good.
