“My first day on set though, I had my first ever sex scene, which was like, I’m like, ‘Really guys? We’re gonna schedule this for the first day? Cool. Thanks for that,’” Justice recalled.

Justice said the scene was not a pleasant experience. “It is uncomfortable,” she said. “I was really nervous. I was actually very, very nervous about it, and totally anxious about the entire situation and I was like, ‘Did I make the wrong choice? I don’t know if I should do this.’”

Justice said a talk with the director eased her worries.

”I had a lot of faith and trust in our director, Paul Tamasy, and he made me feel very comfortable about it and he was like, ‘Listen, I’ll show it to you beforehand. If you don’t like it, we’ll change it, whatever,’” she said. “I think sometimes people think like filming sex scenes or anything like an intimate scene that it’s like really sexy… [but] there’s a bunch of random dudes in the room breathing and watching you.”

The actress added that her scene partner also helped minimize any discomfort. “The actor I was working with, we were friends and well, friends as much as we could be,” she said. “We barely knew each other because it was the first day of filming. But he was a super nice guy and made me feel very safe and was very polite and respectful, so it went well and it’s very tasteful, and yeah. It’s good.”
