Jenna Ortega was ‘sure of what she wanted’ for ‘gross’ age-gap s * x scene with Martin Freeman
Miller’s Girls stars Jenna Ortega and Martin Freeman engaged in a number of X-rated scenes and were ‘very sure’ of what they wanted to do – despite the 31 year age gap
Jenna Ortega knew what she “wanted to do” during her latest racy s * x scene with legendary Brit actor Martin Freeman.
The pair starred together in black comedy Miller’s Girl which hit Amazon Prime Video in the US on January 26. Jenna, 21, plays 18-year-old student Cairo Sweet, while Martin, 52, takes on the role of her teacher, Jonathan Miller.
The movie sees the duo engage in a romantic fling, and viewers were left wincing as they watched the Wednesday actress and The Office icon get it off onscreen, despite their 31-year age difference. Miller’s Girl Intimacy coordinator Kristina Arjona shed some light on how Jenna felt about the X-rated scenes.
In one clip, Jenna’s character appears to be bent over in doggy-style in bed with her teacher. Meanwhile, in another scene, the Sherlock actor’s character is seen pleasuring himself to Cairo’s school assignment before bending her over the bed and touching her.

There were numerous people on set to ensure Jenna was comfortable, Kristina told the Daily Mail, adding that “she was very determined and very sure of what she wanted to do”. She continued: “I adapt to whatever is the comfort level of my actors, especially on a production like this where there is a large age gap between the actors.”
Jenna and Martin were brought in to discuss the level of nudity required from each of them, as well as an in-depth description of the bonk scenes. Modesty garments were made available to ensure the pair didn’t actually bump uglies by accident, the intimacy coordinator added.

Test audiences were rallied to help producers know where to draw the line, and what was “too much” to put into a steamy scene.
However, film buffs found the age gap a little too much to bear, with one simply writing that they were “uncomfortable”. Another X user added: “I think I am finally done watching these age gap movies.
“They are all gross and I am tired of it. No amount of Jenna Ortega or Martin Freeman could save this one for me.”
