Bean’s comments are as ignorant as you’d expect form a privileged white male, who’s had a stellar career.

It took a mere 50 years after Marlon Brando spontaneously raped someone during a sex scene for the film industry to say maybe we should consider doing the bare minimum to protect actors and make them feel safe on set.

Oh ffs if you want spontaneity during a sex scene maybe get a love life?
