Jason Segel enjoyed filming full frontal scenes

In an interview with Vulture, 35-year-old actor Jason Segel talks about the nude scenes he filmed for the 2008 comedy Forgetting Sarah Marshall, where he played the character Peter Bretter.

He reveals that the full-frontal nudity did not make him uncomfortable, stating that he “really felt free.”

Segel explains that this type of scene had not been done before in his recollection and that it was not just for shock value.

He had a creative idea behind it, and wanted it to be the most humiliating breakup of all time.

Segel was trying to address the problem with romantic comedies, which is that the audience can predict what is going to happen.

He explains that he wanted to open the movie with something unexpected, and force the audience to approach the movie with a different attitude.

Segel says that the full-frontal scene was meant to make the audience believe that they did not know what was going to happen in the movie.

Segel was not afraid to push boundaries in the film, and he says that he and the team tried to carry that feeling of a romantic comedy, but make it completely unexpected.

Segel refers to the puppet musical scene, which was part of the movie, stating that they wanted to create something that was fearless.

In an interview earlier this year, Jamie Dornan, who starred in Fifty Shades of Grey, discussed shooting S&M scenes on set.

He avoided going full frontal in the film but still found it embarrassing.

In his interview with GQ UK, he said, “Your dignity is intact as much as it’s all tucked away in a little flesh-colored bag.

“As a guy, you put all your essentials in a little bag and tie it up like a little bag of grapes and it’s tucked away.

“It’s quite a peculiar thing to do every day.”

Segel’s performance in Forgetting Sarah Marshall was not only praised by critics, but it also helped launch his career.

He has since appeared in numerous films, including The Muppets and The Five-Year Engagement.

Segel is also known for his roles in the television shows Freaks and Geeks and How I Met Your Mother.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall was directed by Nicholas Stoller and produced by Judd Apatow.

The movie also starred Kristen Bell, Mila Kunis, and Russell Brand.

It tells the story of Peter Bretter, who is devastated after his girlfriend, Sarah Marshall, breaks up with him.

He decides to take a vacation to Hawaii, but is shocked to find that Sarah is also there with her new boyfriend, Aldous Snow.

The movie was a box office success, grossing over $100 million worldwide.

It also received positive reviews from critics, who praised the performances of the cast and the writing.

The film was also notable for its use of music, including songs by Paul McCartney and The Beach Boys.

Segel has continued to act in movies and television shows, but he has also written and produced several projects.

He co-wrote the screenplay for The Muppets and The Five-Year Engagement, and he co-created the television series Dispatches from Elsewhere.
