Kissing Ryan Reynolds was the least scandalous thing Morena Baccarin had to do while filming the “Deadpool” movies. The first one features a sex montage of the pair, with each moment coinciding with a different holiday. Baccarin revealed on “Conan” that it took two days to film the entire arduous sequence. Conan O’Brien was astonished that it could take that long, but as Baccarin explained, “I think it took about two days to shoot because it was us making sweet love for an entire calendar year. So it was all the holidays, you know, so like we dress differently for every one.” They apparently shot even more scenes, as Baccarin teased that some moments were left out of the final film.
Her scene partner, Reynolds, also found the experience excruciating. He spoke with The Fix (via Far Out magazine) about having to shoot the montage, saying, “It’s not as titillating as it is just sort of funny, and horrifying at times. It was a year’s worth of sex in one day.” As daunting as it may have been, it’s proven to be a hilarious sequence and a genuine Marvel nude scene that changed superhero cinema.
