Emily Blunt recalls sleeping with Tom Hanks

Emily Blunt, the popular British actress who has acted in various movies and TV shows, once opened up about her experience during an intimate scene with Tom Hanks.

Although Blunt has done numerous love scenes in her career, she found the pairing with Hanks a bit odd.

In an interview with GQ, she admitted that the scene initially made her uncomfortable.

Blunt and Hanks co-starred in the critically acclaimed 2007 movie, Charlie Wilson’s War.

The film focuses on the fall of the Soviet Union, and Blunt disrobes to engage in an intimate scene with her Oscar-winning partner.

However, Blunt felt that it wasn’t easy for Hanks either, who wasn’t known for those kinds of scenes.

“It was surreal!

And embarrassing, always, because it’s just you with your tits hanging out, and you have to hope that the lighting’s nice,” she said.

“There are some people who feel OK and confident with prancing around in their underwear.

I wouldn’t say I was one of those people.

So you just become someone who’s good at it.

But he is such a gentleman.”

Blunt believed that Hanks might have been weirded out as well due to their age difference and his own clean reputation.

She explained, “I could be his daughter.

And I’m friends with his son.

I did Buck Howard with Colin.

And also because Tom Hanks is not known for these kinds of scenes, for being that kind of guy – and Charlie Wilson was a massive player, he was really promiscuous.

And s**y!

Tom was so really good at that.

He’s really s**y!”

In another interview with The Telegraph, Blunt shared that her age has made her reluctant to do any more n^de scenes.

She stated, “Too racy would be one thing I wouldn’t go for now.

I’m not so keen on doing nudity, because I’m not 22 anymore.

And actually it’s not so much a moral thing as, ‘I’ve done it before and do I really want to do it again?’

Does it serve the film or is it gratuitous and seeing someone’s tits for the sake of it?

Because I don’t think it’s necessary most of the time.”

Blunt once stayed true to her vow when she vetoed a n^de scene for the 2015 movie Sicario.

The crime thriller saw Blunt playing the FBI agent Kate Macer who would later join a task force dedicated to thwarting major drug dealers.

Blunt was also originally supposed to strip for a scene in the movie.

“That was in there originally,” Blunt once said on The Howard Stern Show.

But Blunt would then go on to veto the idea with support from her Sicario co-star Benicio Del Toro.

Blunt had a special role in the Fifty Shades of Grey trilogy by convincing Dakota Johnson to take the role.

She agreed to do a n^de scene in one of her very first movies, which she considered her breakthrough role.

“It’s called My Summer of Love,” Blunt said on The Graham Norton Show.

“It involves girl on girl, actually.”

In the film, she learned what it was like to disrobe for a movie.

She also revealed that the scene drew an interesting reaction from the film crew.

“I’m amazed when you’re told that the set is going to be a closed set.

Which means that only a limited amount of people necessary for the shot are gonna be on set.

It’s amazing how many necessary people are having a look,” she quipped.

“I had to do a scene in that film where I stood by a window completely n^ked.

And then I looked down and all the crew were like, ‘Yeah!'”

In conclusion, Emily Blunt’s experience with intimate scenes has been a mix of both good and bad.

Despite her initial discomfort during the scene with Tom Hanks, she has continued to act in various movies and shows.

However, her age has made her more cautious about doing n^de scenes, and she is more selective now about choosing roles that require such scenes.
