![]() Clarke has stated that she had multiple arguments with the show’s producers in which she vocalised her discomfort with the amount of nudity that she had to commit to whilst working on set. Clarke revealed that working on the show was not as magical as the show presented itself. My concern for the actors of Euphoria, and Sydney Sweeney in particular, arose after I remembered the ordeal that Game of Thrones star Emilia Clarke dealt with while working on the show. As viewers, we are now rightfully scrutinising the working conditions many actors are under and considering whether what we are watching is ethically produced. Since the rise of #MeToo and the light shone upon the vulnerability of actresses in the industry, there has been a widespread desire to protect the women of Hollywood and ensure their stories are being taken seriously. However, to what extent can authenticity and realism be used as justification before actors are coerced into situations they are not comfortable with? From horror movies to romance to Netflix originals, we are entering an age of risky cinema and filmmakers trying to give their shows more authenticity and grit. But even with modern television venturing into more risqué forms of performances, I cannot help but wonder if the amount of nudity and intimate scenes we are watching has become too uncomfortable, and if it is uncomfortable for us as viewers, is it safe to assume it has become too uncomfortable for actors? Nudity in television and movies has become the new normal. ![]() It seems as though every few minutes in every episode there is a shot of someone's intimate region, or a sex scene being used for ‘plot’ purposes. Now, I know Euphoria is rated 18 for adults so I was expecting the drug use, violence, language and to some extent the nudity, however, I was not expecting the sheer amount of nudity that is in the show. However, beyond the aesthetics, clothing, and makeup, the show has a very… invasive problem, that being the sheer amount of nudity it has. You can really understand why Zendaya views the show so fondly, it’s her own passion project and the passion is apparent. The cinematography, the acting, the storylines, the outfits(!) - everything about the show was immersive. I watched the show when it first aired in 2019 and was hooked. Now, I love Euphoria - anything with Zendaya is an instant click for me.
