Hollywood star Ewan McGregor has said it was “still necessary” to have an intimacy coordinator for the sex scenes in new drama series “A Gentleman in Moscow,” even though he was performing alongside his wife Mary Elizabeth Winstead.
“It’s still necessary, because it’s also about the crew, and it’s odd to be naked in front of people, it’s odd to be intimate in front of the camera,” McGregor told UK magazine Radio Times in an interview for its latest cover story. “If you were doing a dance scene, you’d have a choreographer,” added the 52-year-old. “It’s an important part of the work now, because it’s somebody that the director and actors meet in the middle.” The couple have been married since 2022.
Intimacy coordinators have become increasingly common in recent years, which McGregor, who has four daughters from his previous marriage to production designer Eve Mavrakis, believes is a good thing. He cited 22-year-old daughter Esther in the Radio Times interview, suggesting that an actor of her age might feel they have to do a naked scene if asked to do so by a famous director in order to advance their career. “Then five years after that, she could look back and go, ‘I wish I hadn’t.
