Andrew Garfield reveals he and co-star Florence Pugh were left red faced while filming ‘most embarrassing ever’ sex scene in We Live In Time

Andrew Garfield has admitted he and co-star Florence Pugh were both left red-faced after an embarrassing mistake during a sex scene for their new film We Live In Time.

The actor, 41, stars in the romantic comedy opposite the actress, 28, and made the revelation during his appearance on The Graham Norton Show on Friday.

Giggling, Andrew recalled how the pair didn’t hear the director shout ‘cut’ and continued hugging despite the cameras no longer rolling and the crew leaving.

‘[Me and Florence are] We look at each other and try to stay in the moment, but we can also read each other’s thoughts and ask, “What are we doing? What’s going on? Why isn’t anyone saying anything?”.

“I said, ‘It’s not my job to tell me to cut,’ and she said, ‘It’s not my job to tell me to cut,’ and this was all done telepathically.”

Andrew then revealed that it was he who finally looked up and realized that the cameras were no longer on them and the crew had turned their backs.

He continued: ‘Then it was Florence in all her brilliance and jubilation: ‘Oh my god, this is the most embarrassing thing of my life!’.

We Live In Time follows the ‘unconventional’ love story of a recently divorced woman and an up-and-coming chef.

The first trailer brings Almut (Florence) and Tobias (Andrew) together in a surprising encounter that changes their lives forever.

Through snapshots of their lives together – including falling for each other, creating a home and building a family – a difficult truth is exposed that shakes the foundation of the relationship to its core.

As they embark on a ten-year romance challenged by time limits, they learn to cherish every moment of their unconventional love story.

Meanwhile, Florence recently revealed after wrapping up the film, she was forced to reevaluate her personal life and how many sacrifices she had made.

In an interview with The timesshe revealed how “relationships came and went” after splitting from her long-term boyfriend, Zach Braff, in 2022.

She said: ‘It gave me the opportunity to look at my life outside of work. And I realized, okay, I have to wake the fuck up.

“I had to look away from my career, from films, from wanting to be this kind of actor, that kind of actor. Or how many prizes I would like to receive before I die.

“That’s been my focus for 10 years, but I want to make sure that the things I need to do, whether it’s children, family, change, change in relationships… well, I realized I need to make changes now apply. Because I’m a worker bee and that’s why I’ve never wanted a break. Everything was just, wow! What’s next? And in ten years’ time I can now say: oh, I have to do a part of my life.’

The Hollywood star decided to take a career break this year – her first since her 2014 debut film The Falling – to focus on her personal life.

Then in September, the actress confirmed her relationship status after romance rumors emerged with Peaky Blinders star Finn Cole.

Florence was spotted leaving the afterparty of The Perfect Couple premiere as she took a break with the actor.

Confirming her beloved status during her October cover shoot with Fashion, she said: ‘I am. Okay, so something I resonate with is that I believe if magic is real, it’s falling in love.”

Florence candidly revealed that she is “figuring it out” and admitted that she is ready to start a family.

She added, “We are figuring out what we really are. And I think for the first time I don’t allow myself to go on a roller coaster.

“I allow myself to take the time to let something evolve and be completely real to its core, rather than racing into it.”

‘Falling is the most amazing feeling, but unfortunately, if that’s all you know in a relationship, then that’s what you strive for. That won’t last long.’

Before Finn, Florence dated former Scrubs star Zach, 49, from 2019 until their divorce in 2022.

Giving a rare insight into their relationship, the star explained: ‘In the past I had to be public because people bullied me and my partner.

“Me and Zach’s relationship was actually pretty private until it got ugly and I could see the toll it was taking on him, on us, and on our families. And then I spoke out.

“I think I want to protect everyone I’m with. It sucks knowing people are saying the worst things I’ve ever read about someone I love.

‘So that was necessary. I had to talk about it. I think any relationship that is in this spotlight will be put under strain.”
