- Jennifer Lawrence said that she didn't think twice about appearing nude in "No Hard Feelings."
- In one particular scene, Lawrence's character strips down and goes skinny-dipping.
- Lawrence said that her team was concerned about the scene but she thought it was "hilarious."
Jennifer Lawrence said she "didn't have a second thought" when asked to shoot a nude scene in her new movie, "No Hard Feelings."
In the raunchy comedy, Lawrence plays Maddie, a 32-year-old broke Uber driver who agrees to a Craigslist ad to date a socially-awkward teen (Andrew Barth Feldman) before he goes off to college. In one scene, Maddie and the teenager, Percy, go skinny-dipping on the beach at night.
Speaking to Variety about the scene, Lawrence said she was fully game to get naked for it.
"Everyone in my life and my team is doing the right thing and going, 'Are you sure? Are you sure? Are you sure?'" Lawrence said. "I didn't even have a second thought. It was hilarious to me."
Lawrence added that the beach scene took a whole day to shoot because there were "a lot of" rehearsals.
Feldman, who was also part of the interview, told Variety: "Every situation that these characters end up in, you're laughing your butt off. We became so close instantly that nothing ever felt weird or unsafe. It was entirely professional."
Lawrence then asked her costar: "Even when I put my T-shirt over your head and motor-boated you? You felt safe?"
Feldman replied: "I felt it was an exclusively sterile and professional environment."
In another interview with People magazine, Feldman said that appearing nude on screen was"definitely a weird and uncomfortable thing to do for any human being on the planet Earth."
While Percy is nude, he ends up on top of a car during a police car chase.
"It was so incredibly safe. Everyone was so kind, constantly checking in that we were okay," he said of filming the scene. "The sort of crucial part of my junk was up against the hood, so I didn't really have to worry about that. It was a big fun ride."
"No Hard Feelings" is in theaters now.
