Michiel Huisman on Kaley struggling with intimate scenes
Michiel, who is playing Kaley’s love interest in ‘Flight Attendant’, opened up about Kaley feeling uncomfortable filming a love scene with him. On ITV’s ‘This Morning’, the actor spoke at length about Kaley’s awkwardness. He said, “Of course I didn’t realize, but for some reason, she had never done a love scene before, I guess that never happened on The Big Bang Theory. So when we were doing a fairly decent … we’re making out on the bed, under the covers, we’re doing our first scene like that and I noticed she was sort of hovering on top of me, she’s not really sitting on my legs”.
“After like take three she starts to shake a little bit and I’m like ‘Kaley, what are you doing? Just sit down!’ And it turned out that she was so uncomfortable and she had no idea how to do this thing. She was trying not to touch me.”
Well, who would have thought that our favourite Penny was not sure about how to film a love scene.
