“This is one of those scenes where we really exercise this mantra of who has the power. You would think Hawk has the power. We’re at Hawk’s apartment. And Tim turns the tables and seduces him. This is where the power dynamic keeps changing,” Daniel shared in a BTS video. “In this type of scene, all the tools are used, the blocking of the actors in the room and the choreography of sex.”
“We agreed that the sex scenes would not be gratuitous, that they would always advance the story. “Johnny, Matt and I worked with the intimacy coordinator and choreographed that scene and determined the tone of the scene when it became a sexual scene,” she continued.
In the scene, Matt makes Jonathan suck his toes, and Daniel revealed that Matt had stubbed his toe two days earlier, and claimed that between takes, they would make sure to wash Matt’s feet!
“You have to think about those things, especially poor Johnny, who has to do that scene several times,” Daniel shared. “They were really good sports. They made a really hot scene that everyone will remember.”
