"It was definitely really challenging because you know, you’re on a set with 40 people and the boys are standing there naked," confessed Blake Lively during a recent studio press conference. "That’s always a little awkward!" The 24-year-old actress seemed a bit apprehensive about her racy role in the upcoming Oliver Stone-directed movie Savages. Lively stars opposite Taylor Kitsch and Aaron Johnson, both of whom she has sex scenes with throughout the film.

“This movie was terrifying in so many ways. It’s so graphic, it’s so violent, and [my character] experiences such an arc," Lively further explained. "It’s challenging as an actor and it’s also challenging as a person, you know?”

Savages hit theaters July 6. Plan accordingly.
