Gwyneth Paltrow doesn't shy away from a sex scene today. (If you've seen Marty Supreme, you know what her and Timothée Chalamet's characters get up to in a hotel room, in a shower, and on the ground in Central Park.) But towards the start of her career, Paltrow wasn't as comfortable with sex scenes—not because of the acting part, but because of what would happen after the film was released.
As reported by People, Paltrow and Ethan Hawke recently reunited for a video for Vanity Fair in celebration their 1998 romance Great Expectations. In their conversation, the actors and longtime friends revealed that director Alfonso Cuarón pitched a racy scene between them.
