Jennifer Lawrence didn’t want her cellulite erased in the movie ‘Die, My Love’

The two protagonists find themselves, in fact, playing several scenes entirely naked. “I don’t care about nudity. It doesn’t bother me. I wanted Lynne to have total artistic freedom”, she assures during a press conference filmed by Vulture. “I think being pregnant took away a lot of anxiety about vanity.” This was not always the case. The producer explains that in her previous film, The Challenge (2023), she followed a strict diet, where she did not eat carbohydrates and exercised intensively. A difficult discipline to put in place for Die, My Love : “I was pregnant. What was I going to do? Not eating? I worked 15 hours a day. I was just tired.”

“I felt really liberated. I remember they sent me a close-up of cellulite and asked, ‘Do you want us to touch this up?’ There was no question of it. “No. It’s an ass.”she then says to the post-production team. To shoot the sex and nudity scenes, the actress Hunger Games also declined the presence of an intimacy coordinator, an increasingly common practice in Hollywood to guarantee the respect, consent and safety of the performers during filming. Not that she considered this new profession useless in itself, but she felt that it was not necessary in this specific case. Indeed, according to her, Robert Pattison put her at ease enough for the filming to take place with complete confidence and serenity.

“We didn’t have an intimacy coordinator, or maybe we did, but we didn’t really use it…”, declares the actress of 35 years in the podcast “The Cultures” “I felt really safe with Rob. He is not perverted and he is very in love with Suki Waterhouse (his partner, editor’s note)”she adds, emphasizing that they mainly talked about their respective relationships and their children during filming. “There were never any awkward situations like, ‘Does he think I like him?’. If there had been any of that, I probably would have hired an intimacy coordinator. A lot of male actors get offended if you don’t want to sleep with them, and that’s when the retaliation starts. He wasn’t like that.”
