'And I asked the director, 'What should I do?' And she said, 'Masturbate, like it says in the script'.' She continued: 'I thought I was doing one thing and then when I showed up, it was a whole different thing, it was a full body shot.' 'That's what I thought I was going into, but then when I showed up, the camera was mounted on the ceiling, I was in my underwear and a Clinton t-shirt, and there were a bunch of old men smoking, ya know, the crew guys,' she claimed. 'In my head, I envisioned a nice scene where you see my hand slowly go out of frame,' she said. However, Aubrey goes on to allege that the masturbation wasn't simulated in the scene and that she was asked to intimately touch herself on camera and in front of the crew, contrary to her expectations while reading the script.

In a recently resurfaced interview with talk show host Conan O'Brien, originally filmed as part of the promotion tour for the 2013 comedy The To Do List, The White Lotus and Parks and Recreation actress Aubrey Plaza revealed that she was instructed to film an un-simulated masturbation scene.Ĭonan asks Aubrey about a scene in which her The To Do List character is shown masturbating saying 'There's a scene where you pleasure yourself, how do you approach that kind of scene? That's got to be a strange thing to shoot on camera I'm just curious, that's an intense act to simulate on film.'
