John shared a behind-the-scenes look into what filming a sex scene is really like.
“There is nothing intimate about it,” he said on an episode of Club Shay Shay in August 2024. “Nothing. So, like, it’s really embarrassing.”
And looking back to his role in 2015’s Trainwreck, he was not prepared for the kind of scenes he would be filming with costar Amy Schumer.
“Amy is an angel,” he continued, “she made the environment so comfortable, and then when I got the part, eventually they were like, ‘Yeah, it’s a sex scene and we want you to do elaborate and crazy stunt sex, and all those lines you had? We’re probably not going to use them, we’re just going to do this stunt sex scene.'”
