In an interview with Vanity Fair on February 14, Trevor Noah’s girlfriend Minka Kelly said she was ordered to strip down on her first day on the set of Euphoria.
Minka plays the role of Samantha on Euphoria – a rich young mom. Maddy, played by Alexa Demie, has been babysitting Samantha’s son throughout the season. The character was written for Minka by Levinson.
Minka Kelly stated she didn’t feel comfortable stripping down on the set of Euphoria on her first day according to Vanity Fair, “That was my first day as a guest on this new show, and I just didn’t feel comfortable standing there naked.”
“The director, Sam Levinson, was accommodating to me.”
“[Levinson] thought it would be more interesting if my dress fell to the ground. ‘I said, ‘I’d love to do this scene, but I think we can keep my dress on.’
“He was like, ‘okay’, he didn’t even hesitate. And he shot a beautiful scene and got exactly what he wanted,” she recalled.
Fellow Euphoria star Sydney Sweeney also spoke about how accommodating Levinson is when it came to nude scenes.
“There are moments where [my character] Cassie was supposed to be shirtless and I would tell Sam, ‘I don’t really think that’s necessary here. He was like, ‘okay, we don’t need it,” she told The Independent.
“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,” she added.
