Jenna Ortega fans are still trying to pick their jaws up off the floor after seeing just how steamy her scenes were in a film from earlier this year.
Jenna Ortega was able to win over fans of all ages through the success of Netflix's Wednesday, as well as her part in the Scream franchise.
Suffice it to say, these fans were not prepared to see just how saucy - or whatever you want to call it - she gets with British actor Martin Freeman in 2024 film Miller's Girl.

The film sees Ortega star as a talented 18 year-old writer, Cairo Sweet, who is guided by her mentor and teacher Jonathan Miller, played by Freeman.
The film centers much around their relationship and plays very close to the line about what is and isn't appropriate for student teacher relations.
For people with the oddest shipping of the two actors, this is likely a dream come true, for the rest of us, its just a lil bit awkward.
One part of the Miller’s Girl sees the two actors engage in a steamy scene but as characters from a story that Sweet has written rather than their characters in the film.
This didn’t stop social media users expressing their shock and discomfort of the two actors... well acting.
“Bro I did not need to see Jenna Ortega and Martin Freeman getting it on on the tl,” one user wrote.
“MILLER’S GIRL SPOILER. This scene is f-ing crazy #jennaortega #MillersGirl,” another added.
“I feel very weird while watching this or it just me ?? sorry but not sorry bruh!” a third wrote.
Despite the disgusted reactions from some users, others found it hilarious people were losing their heads over a scene from an essential erotic thriller drama.
“NO, NO, NO, NO, NO! Jenny Ortega, how dare you act such a scene. That's it, You are grounded, grounded, grounded, grounded, grounded, grounded, grounded until the next season of Netflix Wednesday Series,” one frustrated fan wrote.
Another commented: "An erotic thriller starring Martin Freeman and Jenna Ortega lol like what were people expecting."
"People know she's 21 and she's and actress right, she's not a Wenesday,” another commented.
Regardless of where you fall on the debate, since it's release, the movie hasn’t been a hit with fans or critics.
It currently holds a score of 29 percent on the Rotten Tomatoes' and 42 percent audience score.
It doesn’t fare much better on IMDb either with a score of only 5.2 out of 10.
