Long: 'Sex scenes are uncomfortable'

Justin Long has admitted that he finds shooting sex scenes awkward in a room full of film crew.

The Going The Distance star insisted that it is difficult to concentrate on an intimate scene when men are surrounding the set, reports STV.

"I would say some of the naked stuff was a little uncomfortable. I think a lot of the really intimate, sexual stuff around a room full of 30, 40 grown men, that was a challenge," he said.

"All the guys in my room, all the crew guys, were like trying to make jokes to keep it light. Or they were making sex jokes."

Long previously revealed that exposing himself to Christina Applegate in their new romantic comedy was a "weird" experience.

Going The Distance is released in the US on September 3 and the UK on September 10.
