Speaking to the media, Daniel said, “There’s nothing intimate about filming a sex scene on a movie set. We just wanted to make it as touching, real and natural as possible. Drew is an amazing, brilliant, beautiful actor who was a joy to work with and we had a lot of fun. We tried to make it fun.”
He added, “It’s a great way to get to know someone when you’re rolling on the floor the next day. If I wasn’t in this movie and I saw it, I would want to be in it. It’s a movie I want to see, make, and be a part of.”
