So when the intimacy coordinator on the film asked if she would be comfortable with some physicality Gwyneth explained: 'I was like, "Girl, I’m from the era where you get naked, you get in bed, the camera’s on."'
She also discussed how she and Timothée handled working with the intimacy coordinator.
Gwyneth explained: 'We said, "I think we’re good. You can step a little bit back."
'I don’t know how it is for kids who are starting out, but … if someone is like, "Okay, and then he’s going to put his hand here" ... I would feel, as an artist, very stifled by that.'
The actress' return to the big screen after a five year hiatus was inspired by her daughter Apple who has a 'crush' on Chalamet.
‘Gwyneth signed on to co-star with Timothee in Marty Supreme thanks to her daughter, who has had a crush on the Dune star for years,’ an insider told DailyMail.com exclusively in October.

Gwyneth described her daughter's crush to Vanity Fair as she said: 'He’s such a thinking man’s sex symbol.
'He’s just a very polite, properly raised, I was going to say kid. He’s a man who takes his work really seriously and is a fun partner.'

Other plot specifics from their film are still under wraps, but the film, produced by A24, will be a ‘fictionalized original, rather than a biopic,’ according to Deadline, with Chalamet’s character drawing on Marty – one of the most accomplished American table tennis players of all time.
The native New Yorker, known as ‘The Needle,’ won more than 22 major table tennis titles between 1946 and 2002 after picking up the sport as a child on the Lower East Side and hustling for money throughout his early years.
He and his doubles partner - Douglas Cartland – later became the opening act for the Harlem Globetrotters, performing a table tennis comedy routine with frying pans.
His autobiography - The Money Player, The Confessions of America's Greatest Table Tennis Player and Hustler - was published in 1974.
Reisman, who once described his career as ‘a funny way to spend a life,’ died in 2012, aged at 82.
Marty Supreme - directed by Josh Safdie - is set for release on December 25.
