Hayley feels ladies in the 40s were classy
Hayley Atwell thinks it’s a good thing she didn’t do any intimate scene with Chris Evans in Captain America: The First Avenger. The brunette beauty found it “refreshing” and “innocent” that her character Peggy Carter did not go all the way with the 30-year-old star’s superhero alter-ego in the 1940s-based film because it was more “traditional.”
She said, “I really liked it that there was no sex scene in the script because I thought, ‘That was very refreshing and innocent and how traditional.’ I think it was more in keeping with the time. I’ve got a romantic notion that in the 40s there were classy ladies, who had built up their relationships with men and subtle flirtation would go on for weeks before the final deal was sealed. And I think that’s more exciting because you’re not giving as much away. I wanted the audience to come away and think, ‘I think that couple did actually really love each other.’”
The 29-year-old actress generally finds filming sex scenes to be “funny”, but she admits it can also be “weird” being naked in front of a male production team who seem to be “enjoying it.”
