Euphoria's Chloe Cherry was up for a nude scene in the series, but the same can't be said for her co-star.
Cherry stars as Faye in the popular HBO show, and joined Euphoria alongside the likes of Jacob Elordi, Sydney Sweeney and Zendaya in the second series.
The 26-year-old is a former porn star so is no stranger to nudity, but fellow Euphoria star Tyler Chase (who plays Custer) wasn't quite as comfortable with how a scene between them was going to pan out.

In the scene from episode two, Custer stuffs a blood-soaked Faye into a vent following a murder.
And according to Cherry, there wasn't much time for them to get acquainted before the camera started rolling.
Speaking to the Daily Beast in 2022, she said: "We just met and said, ‘Hey, how are you?’ and then shot the scene.
"It probably would’ve been more comfortable had we had a little more time to know each other.
"Sam wanted to do the scene with me completely naked and Tyler was like, ‘That’s a lot', so they decided not to. But I was covered in fake blood and just felt so good being on set.
This comes as one of Cherry's other co-stars revealed recently why she chose to quit the show.
Barbie Ferreira, who played Kat Hernandez, dropped the news last year that she would not be returning for a third season.
Unsurprisingly, the news sparked rumours among fans, who were shocked to see her go.
There were reports that she was in the midst of a feud with Euphoria creator Sam Levinson, during the show's second season, over Kat's direction and story arc.
Others claimed Ferreira had walked off set after she and Levinson had come to verbal blows while shooting.
And in the wide-ranging discussion about all things Kat Hernandez, the 26-year-old actor chatted on Dax Shepard's podcast Armchair Expert about her character's departure in season two.
She revealed her exit was a 'mutual decision' with the show's creators because her character's storyline had run out of momentum.
"I don’t think there was a place for [Kat] to go. I think there were places she could have gone. I just don’t think it would have fit into the show," Ferreira said.
"I don’t know if it was going to do her justice, and I think both parties knew that. I really wanted to be able to not be the fat best friend. I don’t want to play that, and I think they didn’t want that either."
She went on to add that season two felt like a struggle to continue on as her character, for both her and the writers.
"I feel like with season two and certain parts of it, I felt it was a kind of a struggle for both parties,” she said.
"Sam writes for, like, things that he relates to. I don’t think he relates to Kat."
