There are moments where Cassie was supposed to be shirtless and I would tell Sam, ‘I don’t really think that’s necessary here.’ He was like, ‘OK, we don’t need it.’“I’ve never felt like Sam has pushed it on me or was trying to get a nude scene into an HBO show.

When I didn’t want to do it, he didn’t make me.” Of filming nude scenes on other projects, she added: “I’ve had experiences where I want to go home and scrub myself completely raw because I feel disgusting.“I didn’t feel comfortable with my cast mate or the crew, and I just didn’t feel like my character would be doing it.
