The director! He wouldn’t even look at me, he was just trying to guide the robe to me. Jonah was shooting it, and I remember we did a take, and he rushed out from behind the camera and told everyone to turn around and got me a robe. “I remember one of the first sequences of nudity from season 1 - the scene where Maeve wakes up from the operation and her stomach’s hanging out and she runs through this unbelievable space - and it’s horrifying. I’ve got another costume!’ So I went to Lisa and was like ‘I’m not naked,’ and she was like, ‘Why the hell would Maeve want to get naked again?’” Newton said. “I remember reading the script for episode 1 and being like, ‘I’m wearing clothes! I’m not only wearing clothes, I get other clothes to wear. So yeah, when the hosts get power, they’re not gonna spend a lot of time naked on a stool.” It’s an essential part of the story, and it’s guided by what the characters are doing. So you always know what you’re asking, and the great trust it takes for actors to go there with you. They’re sitting there, literally being objectified, treated as objects to be operated on and talked about while they’re right there in the room. What is essential to the story is that feeling of both perfection and tragedy. In both our filming and our cutting, we’re not lingering on parts that aren’t essential to the story. We talked to people who would be in the scenes with them about being careful. “We were very upfront about the nudity from the start, and trying to talk with all our actors not only why it was in the script, but also the safeguards we would have on set in terms of trying to protect them as much as possible. “Filming a nude scene is hard and difficult, because these are peers and also friends, and I understand how vulnerable that makes people,” Joy said.
