“It’s a very sxy movie, right? And there are a lot of [sx] scenes in there […] So Adria did this really, really smart thing where she would print out—we would send images to each other of things we found to be hot and sxy. And so we would talk out these sx scenes and these images and these poses and these moments.”

Let’s just have the best time ever.’ Especially in this environment, with these scenes; there’s a lot of eyeballs on these sx scenes, right? There’s a lot of people that are trying to determine what is sxy, what is appropriate.”
