Sandra Bullockis opening up about the nakedChanning Tatumscene inThe Lost City.
In an appearance onThe Late Show with Stephen ColbertMonday, the 57-year-old discussed shooting the funny scene with theMagic Mikeactor, 41 in the upcoming film.
“Full-on, face-to-face, with the landscape,” Bullock told Colbert, 57, of how close she was to Tatum’s nude body. “I had to spend some time down there. Just making sure uh, no leeches. I had a lot to say to it.”
Colbert then asked whether Bullock’s character seemed surprised in the scene because Tatum was “generously endowed.”
“Let’s just say that I honestly didn’t notice,” said Bullock in response. “When you are down there and you have two pages of dialogue, if you are looking directly at it, you will get nothing done. I looked at his left thigh. I had to look down where it might be, but I focused more on the left inner thigh.”
For a newbehind-the-scenes featurette, Tatumrecalled filmingthe scene.
“Walking to set with a bunch of leeches super-glued to my butt and not having met everybody and just kinda being like, ‘Okay, I’m gonna be butt-naked, my name’s Chan today. This is just what it is,’ " said Tatum. “And then not only that, but to have Sandra Bullock have, like, a two-page monologue with, uh, a certain part of my body.”

“I take my job very seriously when I’m at work,” said theOcean’s Eightactress. “And I just want to be 24/7 with my babies and my family. That’s where I’m gonna be for a while.”
