Rosie says the “akwardness” stems from the fact the two are such good friends.

“It was in the sex scene between husband and wife that things started to go bad. … It was the hardest scene, very difficult,” she said. “I respect him so much and he respects me so much. I know his wife, he knew my husband and introduced me to my boyfriend. It was very awkward. Like brother and sister having to do a sex scene.”

In the film, Leguizamo plays a armored-truck driver and Perez plays his wife, Marina de la Pena, who struggles when their marriage becomes difficult after Feliz (Leguizamo) is shot in an East LA heist. Felix faces a difficult recovery and becomes a very angry person.

After the two worked their way through the scene, Perez admits “in the end, it was one of the best intimate scenes I’ve done.”

It sounds like this movie has had a lot of intense moments. In just the first two days of filming police were called after a gun was pulled on caterers, the set was shut down, and the eight-year-old playing Leguizamo’s son was fired.
