He laughed, "That was my first scene!"
Jonathan went on to reveal, "It was an incredibly safe set," adding that they had an, "intimacy coordinator."
For that reason, the cast always felt really safe filming sex scenes.

He recalled, "There is a moment where they go, "Can we lower the breeches?""
"And when I lowered the breeches for the first time, they went, "Can we call in makeup?""
Anthony added that he's very proud to be part of this show.

He explained, "To be a part of something which reestablishes a balance in how we show our sexuality and how men and women are exploited or not on screen is also something that I'm incredibly proud of as well."
