- In the new adventure comedy, her character has to inspect Tatum's character's crotch for leeches.
Sandra Bullock opened up about how she managed to film with a fully naked Channing Tatum in "The Lost City."
Speaking to Stephen Colbert on "The Late Show With Stephen Colbert" on Monday night, Bullock discussed one scene in "The Lost City" where Tatum's character is forced to strip after encountering leeches.
"Was that CGI?" Colbert asked, referring to the moment Bullock checks Tatum's front for leeches.
"No... [I'm] fully there, full-on, face-to-face with the, uh, 'landscape'," she explained. "I had to spend some time down there, just making sure no leeches, and I had a lot to say to it."
"When you're down there, you may as well just get to know it," Bullock joked.
When Colbert asked Bullock if she, like her character, noticed the size of Tatum's "landscape," she said, "In all honesty, when you're down there and you have two pages of dialogue, if you are looking directly at it, you will get nothing done."
"So, I looked at his left thigh... I had to look down where it might be but I just grazed it here and focused more on the left inner thigh," she continued.
Bullock has previously spoken about how Netflix has sustained her career after casting her in "Bird Box" and "The Unforgivable."
"They're good to artists," she told The Hollywood Reporter in January. "They're good to filmmakers. If it wasn't for Netflix, a lot of people wouldn't be working. Their stories wouldn't be told."
"Who would think that me, as a woman, would still be working at this point? I would have been out in the cow pasture. It's true," she added.
Entertainment Tonight reported Monday that "The Lost City" star announced her intention to take a break from acting in order to spend more time with her children.
"I take my job very seriously when I'm at work," she told Entertainment Tonight, saying that she considers acting a "24/7" job.
"I just want to be 24/7 with my babies and my family," Bullock said. "That's where I'm gonna be for a while."
