Minka Kelly [1] says she pushed back against doing a nude scene during her first day on set of "Euphoria [2]." In a recent interview with Vanity Fair [3], the 41-year-old actor explained how the show's creator and director, Sam Levinson, originally planned for her character, Samantha, to appear nude in a scene where Maddy (Alexa Demie) unzips her gown. In the Emmy-winning drama, Kelly plays a wealthy mother who hires Maddy to babysit her son. "That was my first day as a guest on this new show, and I just didn't feel comfortable standing there naked," Kelly told Vanity Fair. "[Levinson] thought it would be more interesting if my dress fell to the ground. I said, 'I'd love to do this scene, but I think we can keep my dress on.' He was like, 'OK!' He didn't even hesitate. And he shot a beautiful scene and got exactly what he wanted."
Sydney Sweeney [5] recently opened up about filming nude scenes for "Euphoria [6]." In a recent interview with The Independent [7], Sweeney set the record straight about whether she's ever felt uncomfortable shooting "Euphoria [8]," noting that there's an intimacy coordinator on set. "There are moments where Cassie was supposed to be shirtless [9] and I would tell Sam, 'I don't really think that's necessary here' and he was like, 'OK, we don't need it,'" the 24-year-old star explained. "I've never felt like Sam has pushed it on me or was trying to get a nude scene into an HBO show. When I didn't want to do it, he didn't make me."
