Bill Nighy: Sex scenes are awful actually
He has often found himself playing the suave older man with a glamorous young love interest.
But far from enjoying his rakish reputation, Bill Nighy says he finds getting intimate in front of the camera ‘appalling’.
the Love actually star, 67, now refuses to do sex scenes, saying: ‘I wouldn’t do them now – I don’t think anybody smart does them. If you had to do sex scenes, that was just appalling. that was a terrible day at the office.
‘It’s the least erotic thing of all – unless your idea of eroticism is standing in a room with 12 electricians and seven other people and having your bum made up in between takes.’
