Victoria Justice shares how she felt filming her first-ever sex scene. It was part of her new movie ‘Depravity,’ and surprisingly, scheduled on the very first day of shooting.
Justice spoke on SiriusXM’s ‘Hits 1 LA with Tony Fly and Symon’ and talked about filming such a scene right at the start. She said this made her question if she made the right choice by accepting this role:
“My first day on set I had my first ever sex scene. I’m like, ‘Really, guys? We’re gonna schedule this for the first day? Cool. Thanks for that.’ It is uncomfortable. I was actually very nervous about it and totally anxious about the entire situation, and I was like, ‘Did I make the wrong choice? I don’t know if I should do this.'”
Justice was thankful for the support director Paul Tamasy gave her, though:
“He made me feel very comfortable about it and said, ‘Listen, I’ll show it to you beforehand. If you don’t like it then we’ll change it.'”
She Says It Isn’t ‘Hot’ Filming Spicy Scenes
Justice also talked about what it’s really like to film a sex scene. She said that it’s not exciting but quite awkward because many people are watching you work:
“I think sometimes people think filming sex scenes or anything like an intimate scene that it’s really sexy…it’s really not. It’s uncomfortable, honestly, and there’s a bunch of random dudes in the room breathing and watching you. The actor I was working with we were friends as much as we could be. We barely knew each other because it was the first day of filming. He was a super nice guy and made me feel safe and was very polite and respectful.”
Justice feels that the filming went well and the scene was ‘very tasteful.’ in the end.
‘Depravity’ is picked up by Paramount, but they haven’t decided on a release date yet. It’s a movie about a group of people who think their neighbor is a serial killer. They find out about a stolen art collection as they investigate. The film also features Devon Ross, Taylor John Smith, Sasha Luss, and Dermot Mulroney.
