Actor who’s starred in multiple Netflix sex scenes including one with Megan Fox makes huge admission about filming them
He claimed that he didn’t need much assistance after appearing in a number of intimate scenes
An actor that is famous primarily for being in several sex scenes in Netflix films has spoken about one shocking aspect of him shooting them.
Michele Morrone is best known for his breakout role in 365 Days, as well as its sequel, with the raunchy 2020 film getting a huge amount of attention for its explicit sex scenes and questionable script.
A different take on a genre that was made so popular by 50 Shades of Grey, Morrone thrived in the role, and is back playing a character with a bit more depth, but in similarly intimate scenes.
This time though, in a 2024 film that has also been distributed on Netflix, he stars opposite Megan Fox, who plays an android that looks to take control of the family, resorting to violence, after she has been hired to help around at home.
Titled Subservience, Fox is back with director SK Dale, who she worked with on Till Death, though communication between the actress and director became crucial when filming the initimate scenes between the robot and the father, played by Morrone.
The character turns to the robot for help at first when his wife falls sick, though this becomes a sexual relationship as time goes on, as the android goes as far as to blindfold Morrone’s character and put on his wife’s voice while getting hot and heavy.
Director Dale highlighted that a ‘safe environment’ was key when filming these scenes, in an interview with toofab.

In sex scenes, the actors would swap places while on top of Morrone, as his imagination took over while the android was doing the work, and explained that the scene was ‘like an action sequence and storyboarded it all out.’
Intimacy coordinators were used to ensure that everyone was comfortable, though Morrone recalled his experiences on the set of 365 Days, insisting that he ‘did not need’ one to Metro.
“I did not need an intimacy coordinator to help me… Of course, it’s an important person to have on set for the other actors and for people who work backstage, it helps us all, but personally, no, I don’t need anyone,” Morrone highlighted.
The actor went on: “I like to build up a character and a scene the way I imagined it in my mind and how I like to work the script.”
His wish didn’t come true on Subservience though, as intimacy coordinators are more or less a staple in modern-day Hollywood.

While Morrone said that prosthetics were used for scenes in 365 Days, it’s unclear how they were filmed in Subservience.
Dale went on to praise them in their involvement with the actors in the latter, saying: “What I really liked about the intimacy coordinators within the prep of it all was they would ask questions that were story driven.”
He recalled: “Like, ‘Okay, how aggressive is this intimate scene? How, how essential is it? Is there kissing? How, if there is kissing, is it kind of pashing [Australian slang for a passionate kiss] or just pecking?”
