Elliot Page claims he had sex with his Juno co-star 'all the time'
Elliot Page has given a reason as to why he had such good chemistry with a co-star back when he was filming Juno.
Elliot Page became known across the world with a sweet and witty performance as the lead in the 2007 film Juno.
The film followed a teenager who gets pregnant and decides to put the baby up for adoption and ultimately helped propel Page to stardom.

In his memoir Pageboy, the actor detailed an off-screen romance with a co-star while filming the hit film, revealing he was 'immediately' attracted to Olivia Thirlby who portrayed Juno's best pal Leah.
"I was taken aback the moment I saw Olivia Thirlby. She seemed so much older, capable, and centered," Page, who came out as transgender in 2020, said.
“Sexually open, far removed from where I was at the time. But the chemistry was palpable, it pulled me in."
Page went on to recount how they spent loads of time together.
During one of their hangouts, Page claimed Thirlby 'looked directly at me and said point-blank 'I’m really attracted to you'.
"At that we started sucking face. It was on.
“I had an all-encompassing desire for her, she made me want in a way that was new, hopeful. It was one of the first times someone would make me c*m, the first time I would open up."
Page claimed they would have sex 'all the time' and managed to find a few sneaky places to do it.
“Her hotel room, in our trailers at work, once in a tiny, private room in a restaurant," he said.
"We thought we were being subtle.
"Being intimate with Olivia helped my shame dissipate. I didn’t see a glint of it in her eyes and I wanted that — done feeling wretched about who I am."
UNILAD previously contacted Thirlby's management for comment.
Elsewhere in the memoir, Page opened up about having a relationship with Kate Mara, who was with The Social Network star Max Minghella when Page caught feelings.
“The first person I fell for after my heart was broken was Kate Mara,” Page wrote.
“She had a boyfriend at the time, the lovely and talented Max Minghella."
