Jenna Ortega was “comfortable” filming a sex scene with Martin Freeman in their new movie Miller’s Girl — despite their major age gap causing controversy!
The new film, which hit select theaters last month, has sparked backlash after fans were unnerved by a NSFW scene between the 21-year-old actress and 52-year-old actor. The age gap was a prime part of the plot considering the thriller follows a teacher and student’s complicated dynamic following a creative writing assignment — but fans still didn’t like the sexy interaction!

It’s clearly intense! But was the scene as “gross” as fans think?! Not according to the film’s intimacy coordinator, Kristina Arjona, who clapped back at all that hate! Speaking to DailyMail.com on Wednesday, she insisted the co-stars were “comfortable” working together, adding:
Considering the Scream alum’s age, the coordinator paid special attention to Jenna throughout the process, she explained:
She urged:
That’s good! Kristina went on to note that the performers talked about the “level of nudity” and “additional barriers” used while filming the sequences — and they also had “the option on the day to change their mind if they [didn’t] want to do any of the elements that we’ve discussed.” So important to have these protocols in place! And FWIW, the whole film centers on this age gap, so everyone knew what they were getting into when signing on. We’re glad Jenna was “comfortable” with the whole thing, though! Thoughts? Share ’em (below)!
