Here is an excerpt:
Wetpaint Entertainment: True Blood is known for having its actors show a lot of skin. Are those scenes difficult or awkward to film?
Janina Gavankar: It’s difficult when you’re in 34-degree weather, which is what that first lounging around [scene was.]
It was 34 degrees?!
Yeah it was freezing. Scott [Winant] — the director of that episode — was telling me that he was walking and his foot crunched on something and he looked down and it was ice. I‘m so glad nobody told me that in the moment. He said that at some point he remembers me losing control of my mouth, my lips started freezing. You can tell on camera. So in that regard — environmentally — it is difficult.
Awkward? It can be, but this is Season 4 and everybody is so used to it at this point that it’s like, whatever. It’s an incredibly smart show. I’m much more worried about getting every single moment right and building a character that’s real. In that moment that is of the utmost importance, not the fact that the whole crew can see my boobs. And millions and millions of people watching in the end. The crew who have seen it all before, and then some, I’m not really worried about them.
