Actors, Marriage, Infidelity and Divorce.

A quick look and there's at least three actors whom are on their second marriage, with the second relationship, officially, occurring within a span of 12 months.

1. Tom Hanks who cheated on his first wife, divorced her, and then married Rita Wilson a year later.
2. Kerri Russell: had her second child with her now ex-husband in 2011. She started filming The Americans in 2012 were she had a main role with fellow actor Matthew Rhys. No official word of when Russell and Rhys started their relationship/affair, but celebrity gossip sites said that their on-screen sex scenes during the first season were so "real" that onset staff of the series speculated that "they definitely were fucking" offset. The series began filming in 2012. Russell and her now ex-husband separated in 2013 and eventually divorced in 2014. Since 2014, she and Rhys have in a relationship.
3. Allison Williams and her now ex-husband were separated in 2019. In late 2019, Williams started dating past co-star Alexander Dreymon. Both Williams and Dreymon had lead roles in the Horizon Line that was filmed in earl 2019. No word that Williams had an affair with Dreymon, but no doubt at least one of them, or both, had the other in mind once the separation was official. They had a child in 2021.

A pattern holds up: the following relationship of each actor has been with a fellow actor whom they shared significant screen time with; with the relationship officially beginning within 12 months after the dissolution of the first marriage/relationship. 

Shower Thought: Actors and nudity.

If actors are fine being nude on film for all the world to see, for whatever artistic reasoning or chalk it up to artistic "integrity", why are (most) actors who have done nudity hesitant to pose nude in Playboy or haven't thought of doing a true softcore film, or get upset when nude photos of themselves are leaked?

People will say the nude photos were a private matter, but then again so was filming nude scenes - funded by a private company with restricted access to the set when any nudity or sex scene was filmed. Not all films and tv series see the light of day even when production is done for many reasons, one being lack of distributor or the production company withholding distribution because it'll come to a financial loss, and another politics (see: Paramount+ Heathers).

Only difference is the leaked pictures or sex tape had no consent to be released into the public. So what. Why do  actors feel violated now? If your tits were shown in that one tv series, what's the big difference of a leaked nude selfie? Not much. If not a hint of embarrassment was felt filming a nudity or a sex scene, why would the actor feel embarrassed here? I suppose one can't justify the selfie with "for artistic reasonings" but instead it falls under the common man "play stupid games win stupid prizes." They aren't seen as an "artist" who's telling a story, but as a common man without the flattering lighting and camera work, or the butt kissing of trade magazines. They don't like that. They only do nudity if it benefits their career; taking nude selfie isn't doesn't benefit the actor outside of social media circulating the pics. It doesn't give their agents much to work with. 

I can only think of true benefit: A producer sees the nudes, like what he sees and decides to cast you in a role that showcases your tits. 

"Your first time" in mainstream tv & film

EXPLICIT CONTENT 

Those who are familiar with the forums dedicated to pornography, or just nudity in tv and film, in general will notice one thing: the excited anticipation of a pornstar's first anal scene (nowadays it's the rise of cuckoldry with black sexual partners). The discussion goes something like this.

Person A: I cannot believe Amy Star [fake pornstar stage name] hasn't done anal yet. It's been four years!

Person B: It's not if, it's when.

Person A: I just can't wait for it to happen. Same with her first *interracial scene.

Given the scenario above it's almost identical to those who wish to see a certain actress nude, whether it's s throwaway nude scene (i.e. dressing/undressing, shower or bathing, topless sun bathing) or a sex scene (explicit or not). See below.

Person A: Has this actress done any nudity yet? She has a great body and hella cute.

Person B: Not yet. It's only a matter of time. Some take longer than others, but it'll happen eventually. She just needs the right role for it. 

If the pornstar has done one anal scene then more than likely she'll be open to do more anal scenes. This is usually the case. Same thing with actors who have done nudity and/or **sex scenes - all they need is that one scene and that'll leave the doors open to more nudity and sex scenes as long as they act. 

Talks amongst female actors usually end up like girl-talk of "when was your first time" (on screen versus in one's own sexual life) mainly because sex scenes are innately treated like such talks. During an actors' round table, actress Jennifer Lawrence recalled her first sex scene to which, quickly, Cate Blanchett responded for clarifcation "your first sex scene on film?" Of course the latter knew what she was talking about, with the question made in light jest, but the topic could have been easily directed towards the losing one's virginity in real life. Hmmm. Interesting. 

First film/tv sex scene oddly resembles talks of one's first time having sex in real life ... 

*Interracial sex in pornography: In mainstream tv and film actors doing gay/lesbian/bi roles that involves sex scenes (explicit or not) are seen in the same light. In fact, it's now seen as a "check mark" role to get out of the way, like in the 2000s to play an oppressed Jewish person in order to get an Oscar nomination.

** Rarity, some actress have done sex scenes who were not nude. Case in point Saoirse Ronan. Her earliest intimate scene was in The Host where she wore a sports bra (it wasn't a time period film). Her other sex scenes, one with Kate Winslet in the lesbian movie Ammonite Ronan was also fully clothed (time period piece where she was given oral); and another in Brooklyn - also clothed in which the sex scene was amazingly tame despite her character having sex with her boyfriend, though it was in a more socially conservative time period. In The Host I believe she specifically noted she didn't want to get nude - whether be nude for the scene itself to be filmed or nude in general where her hair or bedding would cover her breasts between her co-star. Other sex scenes were in Queen of Scots and Lady Bird, both of she again was clothed. 

Currently, she and Watson are the only actresses that I know of, with their establishment, who outright said no to nudity or made the potential of nudity to zero as they convinced producers to be clothed for such scenes. For Watson, she had a body double in Regression.
