'Sex / Life': Adam Demos clarifies if they used a double to record the famous shower scene
The answer to the question that has been in our heads for so long.
If you have reached the third chapter of 'Sex / Life', surely you know exactly what scene we are referring to. And if not, it is more than likely also because people do not talk about anything else on social networks. In the (unlikely) case that you haven't seen it yet, advance to minute 19, second 50 of the aforementioned episode and freak out. Yes, my friend, it's Brad (Adam Demos) in all his glory. The actor has scored a frontal nude in the shower that has left us ... shocked.
The scene has already gone viral on TikTok, where people have shared their reactions to the sequence. Let's see, we knew that the series had a certain erotic charge, but what we never expected was to find such an explicit nude. Obviously, this scene has sparked a lot of debate on the networks, as many users do not stop wondering if it is his real penis or is it a prosthesis or a body double. We also wondered and we finally have the answer to the question that has been in our heads for so long. Adam Demos, better known as Brad, just spoke about it.
In an interview for Entertainment Weekly, Demos has revealed that they did not use a body double to film the famous shower scene. What's more, he has said that he felt totally comfortable showing his penis on television.
"It seemed good to me because you read the script and you know what you're getting into from the beginning, so I don't think you will sign on a series after reading the scripts and then say no at the last minute."
In addition, he said that they had an intimacy coordinator on set to make sure that both he and the rest of the protas felt comfortable shooting the sex scenes (which are not few precisely).
"We had an intimacy coordinator and everyone talked about it and their comfort levels. You practiced it so much that when you did it, it was much more comfortable than you expected. They talk about everything: hand movements, everything. Even breathing. In sex scenes, breathing is something emotional, so that trip is discussed, but the comfort level of each one is also discussed. "
Showrunner Stacy Rukeyser spoke at the time of her about this scene, confirming that no, it was not a body double. "That's not a body double. I mean, people often ask if it's real or is it prosthetic. I can tell you what Adam Demos says about it, which is, a gentleman never says. So we leave it up to the imagination. of the spectator ". Well, there is the thing.
What you have probably also wondered is if that scene was really necessary for the story. Regarding this, Stacy said it was important to show how obsessed Brad is with his past. We do not know if he convinces us much ...
