Actress Rachel Nichols is no stranger to performing stunts in movies like G.I. Joe and Star Trek (2009), but the one stunt she hadn't yet tackled yet was a sex scene. For CONAN THE BARBARIAN, getting intimate with Jason Momoa on screen was no easy feat for the experienced actress.

Rachel Nichols had been spared from getting intimate with her co-stars since her break out role in Jennifer Garner's "Alias," but for CONAN THE BARBARIAN, the actress stripped down for a sex scene with the gorgeous barbarian played by Jason Mamoa. Rachel tells CineMovie the scene on a bed of hay in a cold damp cave in Bulgaria was "strange" and "super awkward." Luckily for her, she says she was relieved to not have to shoot the nude scenes the first days of shooting. After three months of shooting in Bulgaria, it was time to bare it all.
While most women dream of making out with Jason, Nichols said their growing friendship made it all more difficult and the bear skin rug and hay didn't help either. Adding to the awkwardness was German director Marcus Nispel's passionate direction which she replayed with the director's German accent.
"Yeah, Jason bite her neck. You know. Pull on her hair. Rachel! Scratch his back."
Nichols, however, did not have to perform one stunt. According to the blonde beauty, the breasts shot in CONAN THE BARBARIAN were "stunt boobs" and picked out by Jason himself, whereas his bare derriere was all his in the movie. Unlike Rachel, the "Game of Thrones" and CONAN THE BARBARIAN star was used to baring it all.
