Demi Moore is reflecting on her very ‘vulnerable’ experience filming nude scenes in The Substance.

The Golden Globe winner, who is no stranger to intimate scenes, opened up about nudity in the satirical body horror film, admitting that she had to "tap into her own vulnerability" for the groundbreaking role.

During an exclusive interview with Woman Magazine, the actress, who portrays the role of washed-up fitness guru Elisabeth Sparkle in the Coralie Fargeat flick, detailed her experience shooting explicit content.

She told the outlet, "It was a very vulnerable experience, and we had a lot of conversations around it, but it was taking you to the raw place that you needed to [go].

"On my end, I felt it wasn't sexualised since so many of my scenes were about the experience of being with yourself, and often we are with ourselves nude and it's those moments of our own personal gaze, and self-judgement.

"I think the depth of the vulnerability and where it took me is, in a way, what was needed to help me tap into my own vulnerability."

On professional front, the actress has been taking on such roles since her 1986 film About Last Night alongside Rob Lowe.
