‘I had to tell myself I was still a good person’: The Seduction’s Lucas Bravo on filming the HBO Max show’s most shocking scenes

The Seduction is a prequel of Dangerous Liaisons – so of course it was going to have a dangerous (pun intended) amount of intimacy. For Isabelle de Merteuil (Anamaria Vartolomei) and Madame de Rosemonde (Diane Kruger), sex is power and the social currency they use to claw their way to society's upper echelons.

From the moment we pressed play on the HBO Max show, there was a slew of partially-clothed bodies. However, as we approach The Seduction episode 3, these scenes become a lot more nuanced and layered.

Though French society exists in the patriarchy (what doesn't?), The Seduction is effectively a woman's world. So, how does filming these intimate scenes make our male cast feel?
