A memorable sex scene always needs two people, and some of the most talked about moments in recent film and TV happened because a big leading man and a fearless co-star went all in together. Here are a few pairings that people still search for years later.
-
- Woody Harrelson and Alexandra Daddario in True Detective
The first season of True Detective in 2014 is remembered for Matthew McConaughey’s monologues and Woody Harrelson’s slow unraveling as Marty Hart. Harrelson’s character spends much of the season wrecking his own marriage, and one affair in particular stopped viewers in their tracks.
Alexandra Daddario played Lisa, the woman Marty keeps going back to, and her scenes with Harrelson were the most discussed moments of the early episodes. Daddario was best known for family friendly blockbusters at the time, so the role surprised a lot of people. Years later she did it again in The White Lotus.
Her Alexandra Daddario page on CelebMasta covers True Detective, The White Lotus and the rest of her film and TV work.
2. Josh Brolin and Elizabeth Olsen in Oldboy
Spike Lee’s 2013 remake of Oldboy stars Josh Brolin as a man held captive for twenty years who sets out to find out why. It is a brutal film, and Brolin went through a dramatic physical change for the role.
Elizabeth Olsen plays the nurse who helps him, and their relationship leads to the film’s most shocking turn. Olsen had already shown she would take risks with Martha Marcy May Marlene, and Oldboy pushed even further before Marvel made her a household name as Wanda Maximoff.
CelebMasta keeps the Elizabeth Olsen nude scenes together on her page, from her indie breakout to her later TV work.
3.Leonardo DiCaprio and Margot Robbie in The Wolf of Wall Street
Martin Scorsese’s 2013 film The Wolf of Wall Street made Margot Robbie a star overnight. Her scenes opposite Leonardo DiCaprio, including the famous bedroom scene where she lays down the rules, turned a relatively unknown Australian actress into one of the biggest names in Hollywood.
4.Other pairings worth remembering
Michael Douglas and Sharon Stone in Basic Instinct. Jake Gyllenhaal and Anne Hathaway in Love and Other Drugs. Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson in Fifty Shades of Grey. Each one is still a top search years after release, and each shows how much a leading man’s willingness to commit adds to a scene.
