Andrew Garfield and Florence Pugh Pushed the Limits of Their Sex Scene, Actor Reveals

In a delightful twist of fate—or perhaps a sign of the times—Andrew Garfield and Florence Pugh found themselves taking the intimate scenes in their upcoming film, “We Live In Time,”, a tad too far. It seems that in the heat of the moment, the couple may have missed the directors shouting “cut,” and, well, things escalated rather unexpectedly.
Garfield shared this little gem during a conversation with Josh Horowitz, captured on video and promptly shared across the internet (because, of course, there’s nothing like a behind-the-scenes mishap to entertain the masses). “We were getting into it, as it were, and we went a little bit further than we meant,” he mused, clearly amused by the whole affair. It turns out, as they became lost in the moment, both actors were left wondering if they had indeed gone off-script. “At a certain point, I feel like we were telepathically saying to each other, ‘This definitely feels like a long take,’” he quipped, a knowing smile creeping onto his face.
And just when you think it couldn’t get any more hilariously awkward, Garfield glanced up to discover that the cameraman, Stuart Bentley, was not even capturing the scene. In a charming display of cinematic chaos, he was simply turned away from the action, perhaps facing the wall as if to say, “Not today, folks.” Who knew that filming a romantic comedy could come with such unexpected moments of comic relief?
As for the film itself, it promises to be a heartwarming yet heavy journey through love and medical tribulations, focusing on Garfield’s character, Tobias, and Pugh’s Almut, as they navigate life’s harsh realities. It’s a love story that holds deep personal significance for Garfield, particularly after the loss of his mother to pancreatic cancer in 2019. “I think art heals,” he reflected, sharing how he feels privileged to channel his grief into his work.
In typical Hollywood fashion, “We Live In Time” is set to grace theaters in the U.S. on October 11, promising audiences a blend of laughter, love, and perhaps a few blush-inducing moments of unintended intimacy. As the anticipation builds, one can only wonder what other delightful surprises the film may hold.
