Jennifer Aniston made headlines by breaking the Hollywood norm in a recent s** scene with Jon Hamm.
The actress opened up about her experience shooting these intimate moments.
Aniston confessed that the s** scene was meticulously planned and choreographed.
Despite the nature of the scene, she felt at ease acting it out with her co-star on the set of Morning Show.
With director Mimi Leder guiding them, Jennifer expressed feeling well-supported throughout the process.

She recounted being informed that their purpose was to check in on the actors’ comfort levels.
Despite initial concerns about potential awkwardness, she believed that both herself and Hamm were experienced enough to navigate the scene without external assistance.

The union strongly advocates for the presence of intimacy coordinators in such situations.
In her interview with Variety, Aniston mentioned her reliance on the guidance of her director and editor, citing her trust in them despite her traditional approach.
Reese Witherspoon, who joined the discussion, dismissed any claims that the scene was overly explicit.
Delving into her character’s romantic escapades, Aniston shared insights into her character’s struggles with relationships.
She admitted to having a poor track record in choosing partners, attributing it to the challenges of balancing personal life with a demanding career.
She reflected on the difficulties faced by successful women in prioritizing relationships amidst other responsibilities.
The themes of relationships and sexuality play a significant role in the narrative of the show.
With a focus on adult conversations addressing real-life issues, Reese Witherspoon emphasized the show’s reflection of contemporary societal dynamics, including the provocative scene disclosed by Jennifer Aniston.
