Andrew Garfield Said He And Florence Pugh Went "Further" Than They Needed To For A Scripted Sex Scene, And It's So Awkward
Andrew Garfield shared a seriously awkward moment on set with Florence Pugh.
The two are set to star in We Live in Time, an upcoming romantic drama that follows the decades-long romance of two people who meet by chance.
Like many romance films, there's a love scene in it, and during a recent conversation for 92NY, Andrew hilariously recalled how he and Florence kept going while filming the "intimate" number because they "never heard 'cut.'"
Andrew said, "We do the first take of this very intimate, passionate sex scene, and it's a closed set, which means it's only me and Florence in the room together and the camera operator...a lovely man called Stuart."
"He's very, very polite and very sweet and gentle," Andrew continued. "The director's in another room next door. And so the scene becomes passionate as we choreographed it."
"We get into it as it were, and we go a little bit further than we were meant to just because we never heard 'cut.'"
Andrew said it was "feeling safe," so "we just kind of like...go from the next thing to the next thing. [We thought] we'll let this progress and just carry on."
After a while, he looked up at the camera operator, only to find that he was looking away in the corner, waiting for Andrew and Florence to finish.
People found the story so awkward yet hilarious.
"Not she wanted that garfussy right then and there…" one X user mused. "i’d do the same if it was andrew garfield," said another.
"THIS IS CRAZY 💀💀💀," read a third tweet. "No one thought to say it again?" someone else asked.
People also shared hilarious memes about the camera operator below the video, which you can view here.
