12th Dec 2023 | category: Movies Updates | Hits: 176In a recent interview, Hollywood icon Jennifer Aniston opened up about the behind-the-scenes moments of a steamy sex scene with co-star Jon Hamm in the latest season of Apple TV+'s hit series, "The Morning Show."
The surprising twist? Aniston's discovery of the role of an intimacy coordinator.
The beloved actress, famous for her role as Rachel Green on "Friends," confessed that she was initially clueless about the concept of an intimacy coordinator when the idea was presented to her.
In a joint Variety interview with co-star Reese Witherspoon, Aniston humorously recounted her reaction, saying, "I'm from the olden days, so I was like, 'What does that mean?'" She added, "They said, 'Where someone asks you if you're OK,' and I'm like, 'Please, this is awkward enough!'"
Despite her initial reservations, Aniston praised the professionalism and support of the show's director, Mimi Leder, and her co-star Jon Hamm. Aniston, 54, revealed that Hamm, whom she affectionately called the "Hammanator," was a true gentleman throughout the filming process. "Jon was such a gentleman, always—I mean every move, every cut, 'You OK?' It was also very choreographed," she shared.
Aniston and Hamm's longstanding friendship, which predates their on-screen collaboration, added an extra layer of comfort. Introduced by mutual friend Paul Rudd, the pair had known each other for years.
Aniston reflected, "I've known the Hammanator for a long, long time."
During the interview, Witherspoon shared a surprising connection to Hamm through their mutual friend Paul Rudd, who happens to be Hamm's agent. The trio's friendship goes back to 1996 when Witherspoon and Rudd worked together on a film.
As the conversation unfolded, it was revealed that Witherspoon and Aniston's camaraderie extends beyond "The Morning Show." Witherspoon once guest-starred on "Friends" as the sister to Aniston's character, Rachel Green. Reflecting on the experience, Witherspoon praised Aniston's kindness and warmth, stating, "She was so sweet to me."
In a delightful twist, Aniston's real-life friendships mirror the close bonds depicted on "Friends." She shares a deep connection with Courteney Cox, who is the godmother to Aniston's daughter, Coco. Cox expressed their unbreakable bond, saying, "Jennifer has been amazing for sure."
The trio of Friends is completed by Lisa Kudrow, who frequently joins Aniston and Cox at Hollywood events. Aniston even invited both Kudrow and Cox to her wedding with Justin Theroux, showcasing the enduring friendships that go beyond the small screen.
In the end, Jennifer Aniston's candid revelations turned what could have been an awkward encounter into a delightful tale of friendship, professionalism, and the unexpected surprises that come with filming intimate scenes.
