Christina Ricci has revealed why should would stay naked while on the set of one of her most famous movies. In a candid conversation with Euphoria star Sydney Sweeney for Variety's Actors on Actors series, the two stars opened up about the best ways to approach on-set nudity while filming. The 43-year-old Addams Family star then discussed how she used to walk around the set naked to help normalize the human body and ease the discomfort of filming nude scenes. "Once I had to do a movie where I was naked pretty much the entire time," Ricci revealed. Looking back through her filmography, it is a safe assumption that she's referring to her part in the 2006 movie Black Snake Moan - where she plays a sex addict opposite Justin Timberlake and Samuel L. Jackson. Needless to say, the role required Ricci to be nude for a significant portion of the movie. <img class="size-full wp-image-1263237509" src="https://img.vt.co/2023/11/GettyImages-1677729404.jpg" alt="" width="683" height="1024" />[[imagecaption|| Ricci revealed that he was made "uncomfortable" by others' discomfort.

"So what I did, and you probably wouldn’t be allowed to do this now — I just stayed naked. I was like, ‘Don’t make me feel weird, like I’m the person who has to be ashamed,'" she revealed. Check out their conversation below: [[youtubewidget||https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sNPL79LpXpc]] The actress, who believes this strategy helped everyone - including herself - become desensitized to nudity, continued: "I would talk to crew members naked. I wanted everybody around me to stop reacting to it, because then I would forget that I was naked." In response, Sweeney described Ricci's actions as "kind of like a power move". <img class="size-full wp-image-1263237512" src="https://img.vt.co/2023/11/GettyImages-114688317.jpg" alt="" width="683" height="1024" />[[imagecaption|| Samuel L.

Ricci's conversation with Sweeney also touched upon the evolving landscape of the industry regarding women's comfort during intimate scenes. She noted that there has been a positive change, saying: "With the conversations that were had on our set about intimacy and people’s comfort, it was the first time I realized that things have really changed, and women are now allowed to say, 'I’m not comfortable.'" Reflecting on her earlier experiences, Ricci recalled a time when she faced threats of legal action for expressing discomfort with a scene, a scenario she believes wouldn't occur in today's more progressive environment. However, she admitted to Sweeney that she hasn't done a sex scene in recent years, adding: "I’m at that age where they don’t ask you to do them so much anymore. I mean, I don’t really enjoy them." <h6>Featured image credit: Gilbert Flores / Getty</h6>
