Jennifer Lawrence Says She Didn’t Need an Intimacy Coordinator on Die My Love Ahead of Friday Release

She says she felt safe with Robert Pattinson, conflicting with earlier remarks that the production employed an intimacy coordinator.

Overview

  • On the Las Culturistas podcast, Lawrence said she didn’t need to rely on an intimacy coordinator for sex scenes with Robert Pattinson because she felt “really safe” with him and described him as “not pervy.”
  • Entertainment Weekly noted a prior Brut interview from Cannes in which Lawrence and Pattinson said an intimacy coordinator was on set, creating a discrepancy that neither has clarified in the latest comments.
  • MUBI releases Lynne Ramsay’s Die My Love in theaters on Nov. 7, with Lawrence and Pattinson starring in a psychological drama centered on a new mother’s unraveling.
  • Lawrence said she filmed nude scenes while pregnant with her second child and rejected retouching offers, adding that pregnancy eased “vanity anxiety” and that she wanted Ramsay to have artistic freedom.
  • Ramsay emphasized improvisatory methods and 35mm craft—including asking the leads to crawl “like cats”—as early reactions praise Lawrence’s performance while some reviews, such as Looper’s 5/10, call the film alienating.
