While discussing a recent intimate scene between Jimmy (Wes Bentley(And Sarah)Dawn Olivieri) appeared on Yellowstone In Season 5, Russell, 43, confessed to Kramer Moan Down Podcast. He would not feel comfortable if Kramer, 41, played a role that included intimate sex scenes. “I was like, 'There's no part of me that will ever, ever, ever allow a guy to be that close to you (on set),” the Scotland native shared on Monday, December 9.
When Kramer asked him if he would make an exception for Taylor Sheridan Show like YellowstoneRussell stood his ground. “I will call the producers and threaten them (like): ‘You need to change this scene.’ For your health, you need to change this scene.”
As someone outside the entertainment industry, Russell said he doesn't think actors filming sex scenes is “a healthy thing for any relationship.” He explained: “This is not good for marriage, this kind of role, it is not good, especially (for) a man who is not in the world of acting. It is difficult. So, this is my opinion based on (the fact that) I am not in this world.
Although Kramer sympathizes with her husband's point of view, she also points out that filming these type of scenes is something that comes with the job — and something most actors don't particularly enjoy.
“It's the most annoying thing ever,” she said, noting that the only people usually allowed to film those scenes are actors and sound technicians. “It's very uncomfortable for the people who do it. It's not an exciting thing.”
At the end of the day, Russell said he would be OK with Kramer taking on a bigger role in NSFW but didn't know “how I would handle it.”

Later in Monday's podcast, Kramer and Russell asked their guests Robin Lively and Bart Johnson To think about how sex scenes affect romantic relationships. Lively, 52, understood Russell's point “totally,” but noted that “women deal differently” when it comes to approaching these types of scenes.
“There's nothing sexy about it. It's uncomfortable. It's embarrassing. It's like you want to die,” she said. “Fortunately, we haven't had many experiences like that since we've been married, but I have to tell you, those scenes are horrific.” “
Johnson (53 years old) supported her, saying: “You create the illusion of this really exciting and crazy moment, but in reality, that is not the case at all.”
