When Jennifer Lawrence Admitted Struggling With ‘Mother!’ & Filming Intense Nude Scenes In ‘Red Sparrow’

Jennifer Lawrence reflected on her confusion about 'Mother!' and opened up about filming vulnerable nude scenes in 'Red Sparrow.'

Jennifer Lawrence is always honest; this time, she’s opening up about a surprising mishap on the Red Sparrow set. The actress got candid about working with director Francis Lawrence, especially during an intense scene where her character, Dominika Egorova, had to strip in front of her peers.

Speaking at a press conference for Red Sparrow, Jennifer shared that while filming the scene, she felt a strange sense of privacy, almost like being in a “nude house” where everyone was comfortable being exposed in front of each other. “I accidentally flashed the camera guys, and they were like, ‘Oh my god!’,” she admitted.

While awkward, the situation was made easier by the familiarity of working with a trusted team. Francis Lawrence, whom Jennifer called “almost a paternal figure,” and the camera crew, some of whom she’d known since she was younger, helped create a safe space for her during such a vulnerable moment.

It was clear Jennifer felt supported during the filming of Red Sparrow. In it, she portrayed a Russian ballerina turned spy, Dominika Egorova, who was forced into using her body as a weapon. The character’s journey involved significant psychological manipulation, and filming scenes with such intensity required a strong sense of security.

Jennifer emphasized how the footage, especially from the more intimate moments, was kept private, only accessible to her and the editor, ensuring that she was protected from unnecessary scrutiny. This careful consideration helped her feel safe in situations where many might have been uncomfortable.

Last year, in No Hard Feelings, she did her first fully nude scene. Playing a bartender and Uber driver, she found herself in a strange and hilarious situation—responding to an ad from parents looking for someone to “date” their 19-year-old son. Despite the potentially awkward setup, Jennifer was completely unbothered.

“Everyone in my life and my team was doing the right thing, asking, ‘Are you sure? Are you sure?’ I didn’t even have a second thought,” she confessed. For Jennifer, it was more about the comedy of the situation than any discomfort.

Her No Hard Feelings co-star, Andrew Barth Feldman, echoed her sentiments. The two quickly formed a close bond, which made filming the movie feel “entirely professional.” He added, “Every situation that these characters end up in, you’re laughing your butt off.” Their undeniable chemistry made their on-screen moments feel natural, even when pushing boundaries.

Jennifer Lawrence’s willingness to embrace these challenging and often vulnerable roles demonstrates her commitment to authenticity on and off-screen.
