Ewan McGregor has stated that he was humiliated during filming a s-x scene with Christian Bale because they were unaware that the crew had stopped recording them while they were in the middle of their session.

The intimate scene was for the 1998 music movie Velvet Goldmine, in which he portrayed the Batman star’s boyfriend.

The Trainspotting actor admitted to getting a bit carried away.

“I did have a s-x scene with Christian Bale, which I did to the best of my ability,” he told talk show host Graham Norton. “I was playing an Iggy Pop-type rock star and we have a s*ag on top of a rooftop but they wanted to shoot it from another rooftop. We heard, ‘Action!’ so we started to slowly (simulate s-x). Then it went on and on. Then I thought, I would have (finished) by now so I went round to his ear and went, ‘I think I would have (finished) by now. I’m going to have a look.’ I looked over and they were packing up the cameras!”

“They must have said ‘cut’ really quietly. I think they thought it was a sensitive thing, they should just leave it to us. There’s nothing wrong with (screaming), ‘Cut!'”

McGregor has stated that he intends to continue filming n-ked sequences in the future.
