Keira Knightley is fighting criminals in the fast-paced 'Domino' and
Felicity Huffman is fighting her sexuality in the controversial 'Transamerica.' But among the many challenges these women faced for their roles, one was whether or not to bare it all and go nude or to stay under wraps and have a body double do the dirty work!
Keira, who plays a bounty hunter in the Tony Scott-directed flick hitting theaters October 14 and loosely based on a true story, decided to play it safe and go with a bum double -- which she had the honor of choosing herself!
"You go into a room, somebody says which one would you like?" she says explaining the unusual process. "There were three women standing there, their bums facing me and I went, 'Ooh that one,' and they went, 'okay' and that was it -- nothing easier."
She does admit she was a bit embarrassed with the situation. "Wouldn't you be?" she asks.
But Emmy-winning "Desperate Housewives" actress Felicity Huffman does show some skin in her very first nude scene in 'Transamerica,' where she plays a pre-operative male-to-female transsexual who takes an unexpected journey when she learns she has a son.
The actress reveals why she was a bit intimidated doing the scene. "When you're on a movie set the grips are there and the cameras are there," she says. "And you're like 'Here's my scary a$$ and here it is getting in the bathtub!'"
But Felicity says the experience was a good one and that she might be open to doing it again. "Yeah, sure, if it's -- it's such a cliché now -- but if it's necessary for the story, yes I would," she says. "Of course, I would have to think it's necessary for the story!"
