“I was having a tough day. And then I was like a lot of people in this room, and I have to do it alone ‘, and it’s really much harder to do it than having sex on screen with someone because at least you have a partner and you can kind of give and receive, and you can – and I really feel so vulnerable,” Michelle Williams began.
“I asked Rob to do the scene with me, but out of the cameras, and it was like the most generous thing. He was like, ‘yes, of course, I’m going out of my trailer, and I’ll do it behind a wall. If you think it will help you.’ I meant a lot to me when I was over.
