Intimacy coordinator had to walk away from Liam Neeson and Pamela Anderson sex scenes as they were ‘too hot’

James Moor­house

Liam Nee­son has revealed that an inti­ma­cy coor­di­na­tor for his upcom­ing film had to walk away due to the nature of his sex scenes with co-star Pamela Ander­son.

The 73-year-old clear­ly has a very par­tic­u­lar set of skills in the bed­room, and he’s set to show them off in The Naked Gun, which will release in cin­e­mas ear­ly next month.

It was only last year that the Tak­en actor talked about when he might poten­tial­ly retire from act­ing, but he clear­ly could­n’t turn down the oppor­tu­ni­ty to star in a re-imag­ined ver­sion of the com­e­dy spoof clas­sic.

And con­sid­er­ing he’s admit­ted to being ‘mad­ly in love’ with Miss Ander­son, which near­ly every man of a cer­tain age will prob­a­bly under­stand, it’s easy to see how their sex scenes on set got a lit­tle steamy.

Speak­ing to PEOPLE last Octo­ber, Nee­son admit­ted: ‘I’m mad­ly in love with her. No huge ego. She just comes in to do the work. She’s fun­ny and so easy to work with.

With the film now set to release on 1 August in the UK, it seems as if the Love Actu­al­lystar has giv­en up on his hopes of dat­ing Clau­dia Schif­fer after dis­cov­er­ing his love for the Bay­watch beau­ty.

He admit­ted that while the two did have an inti­ma­cy coor­di­na­tor on set, some­thing which is espe­cial­ly impor­tant these days, they left the room after things got a lit­tle too hot between Nee­son and Ander­son

The actor explained: “I’d nev­er had one before. But she was in the back­ground. There was no kind of, ‘OK! Excuse me!”

Nee­son then added that the inti­ma­cy co-ordi­na­tor stormed out of the room, say­ing: ‘I can’t take this! This is too hot for me. I’m going for cof­fee’.

How­ev­er, it seems as if their love will be lim­it­ed to the screen for now, as Ander­son quashed any rumours of a romance in the real world.

She said: “I think I have a friend for­ev­er in Liam. And we def­i­nite­ly have a con­nec­tion that is very sin­cere, very lov­ing, and he’s a good guy.”

Speak­ing to Enter­tain­ment Week­ly, the two also spoke how they kept their rela­tion­ship pro­fes­sion­al while film­ing.

“Our chem­istry was clear from the start. We have the utmost respect for one anoth­er,” Ander­son said.

“I invit­ed him and his assis­tant over for roman­tic din­ners with me and my assis­tant so our rela­tion­ship stayed ‘pro­fes­sion­al­ly roman­tic’ dur­ing film­ing.”

“I’m hop­ing peo­ple love it. We had so much fun mak­ing it. I think it’s time­ly for a beloved com­e­dy like this. I’m a fan of the orig­i­nals. As Liam says, ‘We could all use a good gig­gle.’ I pray we do more.”
