Feeling Uncomfortable Filming Her Nude Scenes in Outcast Wrenn Schmidt was involved in a nude scene on the series Outcast. Source: IMDb Nude scenes are prevalent in Hollywood movies and TV shows; most of the time, they are unnecessary, and sometimes the story demands it. But no matter how careful the writer is about writing the script, there is always an actor who needs to perform it and bare themselves naked for the world to see. This was the case for Wrenn, who was Cinemax’s Outcast cast as one of the main protagonists. In one scene of the series, she gets possessed by a demon, and this leads to her stripping down naked inside her bathroom while standing in front of her co-star. This whole ordeal was difficult for her considering the scene needed a whole day to shoot, and there was blood and makeup on her naked body, which made it even more uncomfortable.

It’s not really in their day-to-day; they think very differently about work and jobs. They’re like, ‘Do you have a real job?” But the actress later explained she felt strongly about the scene after the director explained the importance of the scene and why it is needed for the episode. “You don’t want your personal experience of discomfort to impact the character’s experience even though you’re having a wildly different experience,” she explained the reason she was able to do the scene.
