Video release changes everything as Jennifer Lawrence makes controversial sex scene admission

A further twist has been revealed following controversy over Jennifer Lawrence's comments about intimacy coordinators.

The star made a remark that she didn't use a coordinator while on set with Robert Pattinson in their new film, Die My Love, because the Twilight star ‘isn’t pervy’.

Hunger Games actress Jennifer said: “We did not have [an intimacy coordinator], or maybe we did but we didn’t really… I felt really safe with Rob. He is not pervy and very in love with [Pattinson’s partner] Suki Waterhouse.

"We mostly were just talking about our kids and relationships. There was never any weird like, ‘Does he think I like him?’ If there was a little bit of that I would probably have an intimacy coordinator. A lot of male actors get offended if you don’t want to f**k them, and then the punishment starts. He was not like that," Lawrence was quoted as saying on the Las Culturistas podcast.

Typically intimacy coordinators are used to help orchestrate scenes of a sexual nature, to ensure professionalism and that everyone involved is comfortable at all times.

However, a video of the interview has been released, which begins with Pattinson joking: "It was basically a whole day of sex scenes on the first day."

Jennifer adds: "Talking, getting notes, having a snack, naked."

She was joking on the podcast, by the way. They had an intimacy coordinator on set, don’t fall for Variety’s clickbait headline.pic.twitter.com/rXQ1t7aX6D

A journalist, offscreen, asks: "Did you have the help of an intimacy coordinator for those scenes?"

Lawrence turns to Pattinson and says: "I think we did have an intimacy coordinator? Yeah, I felt safe the whole time, Rob was very appropriate."

He laughs and says: "I'm a very unthreatening guy," as Lawrence joked: "I felt super safe... almost too safe, so I was like 'I'm OK, she [the intimacy coordinator] can go.'"

The journalist pressed further, asking 'does that help, having a coordinator to talk to?' and Lawrence responded: "Yeah, I think it can be very helpful."

Pattinson added: "It's not just for feeling secure sometimes, it can be for the actual technicalities. I think directors are sometimes a little bit scared to say 'your body looks weird in this angle' and if you have someone else whose specific job is to say 'just move a little bit in this direction' you're going to like it more.

"It's nice to have somebody who's not embarrassed," he added. "You're sweating a lot, you look gross."

One fan wrote: "Wait this is actually insane, Variety posting that quote without further context is so evil and manipulative?!?!"

Someone else insisted: "The quote they posted included that they had an IC, but it was a bit insulting: 'We did not have [an intimacy coordinator], or maybe we did but we didn’t really…'”

Another praised: "It's nice to hear especially an European male actor talk positively about working with an intimacy coordinator for a change."

However, one viewer argued: “'I think we did', how do you not know if there was an intimacy coordinator they should be pretty present for any type of sexual scenes. You can’t miss them."
