Michele Morrone, an actress most known for her s**ual role in the Netflix 365 Days movies, is now talking about the unanticipated side-show element of filming these very personal moments.
Morrone became recognized because of his role in 365 Days and its sequels, which got a lot of attention because of their controversial premise and intense s**ual scenes.People sometimes said that the series was too similar to the Fifty Shades movies, but Morrone’s emotional performance set it apart from other movies in the same genre.
In the 2024 sci-fi thriller Netflix Subservience, Morrone plays Megan Fox in a role that has some of the most violent sequences of s**ual abuse.
The robot actress is an AI-powered robot that helps out around the house when the mother of the family gets sick. But the robot’s help quickly turns bad when she starts to control and change everything around her, including the character of Morrone.
As the interaction between the android and the human father gets more s**ual, one moment that stands out as particularly disturbing depicts Morrone’s android blindfold his character and copy his wife’s voice during s**.
SK Dale, who had worked with Fox on Till Death, directed Subservience. The filmmakers and actors worked closely together, especially when it came to filming these exciting scenes.
Dale told TooFab that making sure the “safe environment” was there throughout the shoot was very important.
He called the s** scenes “an action sequence” and said that they were planned out and storyboarded before they were filmed.During filming, the actors acted over Morrone in a way that showed how the android’s appearance changed, and the actor had to use his imagination to make the illusion work.
Int!macy coordinators were on set to make sure that everyone was safe and that everyone’s personal space was respected. Morrone, on the other hand, said he would rather not deal with them.
In an interview with Metro about his time on 365 Days, he said, “I didn’t need an int!macy coordinator to help me…” An int!macy coordinator can be helpful, that’s true. It’s clear that this person is important for both performers and others who work behind the scenes because they can aid everyone. But for me, personally, I don’t really need anyone.
He went on to say that he likes to create characters and scenes in the manner he sees them in his head and the way he likes to write them in the screenplay.
Even if he didn’t like them, int!macy coordinators are now common in Hollywood projects. It was not up for discussion that they be on Subservience.
Director Dale thanked the coordinators for making sure that the sequences were plot-driven and not just there for no reason. What I particularly enjoyed about the int!macy coordinators was that they asked questions that were based on the story.
He then said, “Okay, how scary does this scene seem?” What does it mean? Are there k!sses? If so, is it pashing or pecking?
Morrone had indicated before that prosthetics were used in all of the 365 Days of Subservience, but it’s not obvious from a technical point of view what personal sequences were in Subservience.
