Speaking to People, Nicholas and Taylor explained that it was all about developing a sense of trust.
“Making intimacy super serious can be a bad thing because you get really in your head about it,” Nicholas explained. “Taylor and I, we have enough trust and respect in each other that it was all about always feeling comfort and being able to communicate.”
Taylor agreed, explaining, “It was just choreography. We would be counting in our heads like a dance: ‘Grab one, two; squeeze one, two.’”
He continued, saying “We just brought humor before we tag in and humor after we tag out, which made everything less serious and kept us in that suspension of disbelief.”
Of course, they also took some precautions to make the scenes comfortable for each other. Nicholas stressed the importance of breath mints! “You want to stay fresh when you’re doing these scenes. Lots of making out,” he explained.
