Josh Lucas has said that he hated filming sex scenes for his new movie because he had to spend a whole day with naked strangers.

The Poseidon actor, who plays a sex-mad con man in Death in Love, had to simulate sex with nine different women for the role.

The star admitted that the scenes left him feeling dirty and "strange", saying: "I filmed nine very hardcore sex simulation scenes with women I never met. At the end of the day I felt crazy!" Even when the actor went to sleep he said that his "dreams were pretty weird".

He went on to joke: "You're sharing body fluids whether you like it or not. I could never be a porn star. I was shook up. I did not walk away from that thinking 'Oh that was fun'."

Lucas, who was rumoured to be dating The Notebook actress Rachel McAdams earlier this year, says that he is now hoping to star in a family-friendly movie.
