Elliot Page Explains Why Shirtless Scene In Upcoming Movie Is So “Liberating”

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Actor Elliot Page details the “liberating” feeling of his shirtless scene in upcoming film Close to You. In the film Page, who came out as transgender in 2020, plays trans man Sam who confronts memories from long ago after a chance encounter with an old friend. Close to You is directed by Dominic Savage and co-stars Sound of Metal’s Hillary Baack alongside Page.

Shooting on the day, I was getting out of bed and getting dressed, it was sort of clumsy, like, 'Oh, it would be great, he sleeps shirtless.' In the moment when you're making this, you're making it from this instinctual place that I don't know how to describe. It just sort of happens, but at the same time, it just felt natural. Showing this dude who's comfortable and present and waking up in his body, that means a lot to me.
