Actress Demi Moore explains why she did full-frontal nude scene in Cannes movie

Actress Demi Moore has provided an explanation on why she did a full-frontal nude scene in a Cannes movie.

Demi Moore who was at a Cannes Film Festival press conference this weekend after the premiere of “The Substance,” the new movie she’s in, said stripping down for the role required loads of vulnerability and rawness, something she felt she needed to do to tell the story.

She gave a shout-out to her costar, Margaret Qualley, whom she says eased her nerves and served as an incredible scene partner for the moments they had to get fully naked.

Demi said the movie pushed her out of her comfort zone, but she knew the explicit scenes were necessary for it and luckily, director Coralie Fargeat approached it all with sensitivity, establishing a common ground of mutual trust.

“The Substance” is said to tackle beauty standards, toxic masculinity, and female self-hatred, with Demi stepping back into the spotlight as Elisabeth Sparkle, a fading youth-obsessed celeb who turns to a black market drug.
