As for Robert, the 39-year-old echoed her sentiment, adding that jumping into filming their sex scenes immediately after their pre-production dance classes was a smart decision.
"You think it can't get more embarrassing and they're like, 'Now, do it naked,'" the Batman star told Brut. "It was kind of a good idea actually because if we didn't like each other, then it becomes increasingly more awkward [as production continues]."
And that wasn't the only reason Jennifer, 34, and Robert's NSFW scenes together went off without a hitch. Additionally, the pair noted that having an intimacy coordinator on set of the movie—which also stars LaKeith Stanfield, Sissy Spacek and Nick Nolte—made them feel safe.
"And it's not just to feel secure sometimes," Robert said. "I think directors sometimes are a little bit scared to say, like, 'Your body looks weird in this angle.' And if you have someone else whose specific job is to say, 'Just move a little bit in this direction,' you're gonna like it more."
