foreign this is not a show to avoid nudity and violence. However, Sam Heughan explained that there was a scene where he felt that nudity was “unnecessary” and that his decision to leave her on the show betrayed his trust in her.
The scene Heughan talks about occurs at the end of the first season, when his character Jamie is sexually assaulted by Black Jack Randall (Tobias Menzies). In the episode, there is a full frontal shot of Heughan’s penis, which he said was “unnecessary”. He later explained it in his memoirs of him. Points of reference: My trip to Scotland (through experienced person ):
Time has changed. The cock stroke was unnecessary and somehow betrayed my faith in the creative team. We don’t need to see horror to imagine what the characters are going through. The imagination is much more powerful.
Heughan noted that he is contractually obligated to film nude scenes, also noting that the show does not shy away from tackling difficult topics such as sexual assault. However, in this scene, he said he didn’t think his character should be naked. It was an incredibly brutal and difficult moment to watch on the show. He has written:
It wasn’t the time I felt that being naked would aggravate the horror of what Jamie is enduring in this castle dungeon as a form of punishment, submission and humiliation.
She later explained that her refusal on stage sparked a debate on set. Eventually, it was agreed that the explicit shooting would end up “on the editing room floor”. Heughan also wrote about how such a thing would not happen today.
Changes in the way sex is filmed and portrayed on television have been rapid in recent years and foreign He’s been in the air for all of this. The show has been on Starz since 2014 and recently brought in an intimacy coordinator to make filming intimate scenes more comfortable and safe.
Intimacy coordinators have begun to be used more often, especially in shows where there are a lot of sex scenes. Bridgerton is a program that has begun to use an intimacy coordinator and the the show coordinator explained what he does on set He said his main role was to make sure everyone felt comfortable, especially the actors. With Bridgertonhit shows like dragon house use intimacy coordinators also and spoke about the importance of work. It all goes back to foreign Why Heughan brought in an intimacy coordinator on the set of the sixth season.
The actor was very open about what it was like to work on the first few scenes foreign, saying it was “a different era”. However, now with an intimacy coordinator, they can make sure everyone on set feels safe, and when there are sex scenes, they help move the story forward.
It’s nice to know that the show has evolved to make the more intimate scenes safer and more comfortable, especially after hearing what Heughan went through in the first season.
