Though Shahi did not comment on her beau's package during the interview, she did get candid about her experiences filming intimate scenes with Demos. Cooper glances back up at Brad, feeling like more of an underdog than ever and guilty as hell he just checked him out." "And S–T - his worst fears are confirmed. "As he does so, Cooper can’t help but lower his eyes to check out Brad’s package - the instrument that brought his wife so much pleasure," read part of the initial script page of the shower scene. Cooper stalked the record label executive all the way to the gym and saw Brad's manhood when he was in the shower after an intense workout. The scene in question appeared in the third episode when Billie's (Shahi) husband Cooper (Mike Vogel) got curious about her history with her ex-boyfriend Brad (Demos) after reading her diary on how the latter pleasured her when they were together. So, we are leaving that up to the viewer's imagination." Rukeyser continued, "I can tell you what Adam Demos says about it, which is, a gentleman never tells. We were a team."No, that’s not a body double," she told Collider in June after the show was released.s "I mean, people usually ask is it real or is it a prosthetic?" “It really felt like we were all in this together. “Everyone was just so giving of themselves… in how they worked with the actors,” she adds. Odette notes that the on-set collaboration was “echoed by every department” including costuming, who worked with her to ensure that Sasha only wore clothing from Black designers. “I’m so grateful that she extended the invitation to being an equal collaborator in that way, because it set the tone for my entire experience working on the project.”

I will not begin to pretend I know what it’s like to walk around on this planet as a Black person, but I want to be a partner in making sure that this character Sasha comes across authentically and full and complex in all the multitudes that most women possess,'” she shares. “After I booked the role, Stacy was like, ‘I am a white girl from Connecticut. Margaret Odette, who plays Billie’s best friend Sasha, reveals that she also felt a strong sense of safety and comfort while making the series. “Also, it was important to depict that women can get off in other positions.” In Sex/Life, the camera often lingers on her male co-leads’ bodies longer than her own, which Shahi found refreshing. “A lot of times, when we have shows or movies that are very sexual, it’s still told through the male lens, but now we have something that’s the female point of view.” I don’t know if I would have been that comfortable opening up in that way if it was a man,” Shahi explains. “To have women behind the camera, and something that was this centered around a woman’s point of view, I don’t think I realized how great that was until after the fact, the safety that comes with being able to talk to women about those sexual scenes. Shahi also worked with intimacy coordinator Casey Hudecki, whose credits include The Handmaid’s Tale, American Gods, Ginny & Georgia and Tiny Pretty Things. Plus, four out of the six writers on the show (which includes Rukeyser) were women.
It helped that Shahi was surrounded by women like creator Stacy Rukeyser ( UnREAL, Greek), who employed a crew of only women directors to bring those explicit scenes to life under the female gaze. I was a God-fearing girl when we were doing this. “I was a ball of nerves, honestly, between that and the amount of nude scenes and sex scenes, and the raw emotional breakdown scenes. “It’s a very emotionally charged role,” she tells TVLine.
