Aimee Lou Wood is opening up about her experience filming fan-favorite show the White Lotus.
The Sex Education star revealed the role has been the first time she's gotten approval of her own intimate scenes.
“I love intimacy coordinators, and I think they’re absolutely essential,” she told Elle magazine. “However, sometimes they can make it more awkward because… if you’re friends with the actors, you’ve already got a dynamic, and then the intimacy coordinator’s coming in and it’s like, we have to act different because it becomes all formal and it becomes quite heavy. And Miriam’s so great because she’s not like that at all. She’s so informed by us.”
The actress added: “And also, she showed me. The main sex scene, she showed it to me at the end. [She said,] ‘I just want you to watch it. And I want you to know that if you are not happy, we can change it’.
“That was the first time that had ever happened, that someone had straight away been like, ‘Come in this room and watch it’.”
To make fans feel even better reading the interview, the actress added White Lotus creator was just as on board.
Aimee added that Mike White also offered “we can cut away before anything happens."
