Morena Baccarin has revealed she didn't enjoy filming a two-day sex scene with Ryan Reynolds in Deadpool.

The actress, 43, starred alongside the Canadian star, 46, in the first instalment of the comedic and action-packed Deadpool franchise back in 2016.

Although Morena said she enjoyed the filming experience as a whole, she admitted she didn't have fun spending two entire days filming a sex scene with Ryan.

In the film, she plays Ryan's character Wade Wilson's girlfriend Vanessa and they share a string of steamy moments in a cozy montage following their romance.

The loved-up couple are seen getting intimate as they celebrate a year's worth of major holidays together, including Christmas and Valentine's Day.

Speaking about filming the scenes, Morena admitted: 'It was really fun... minus the two days of sex scenes, it was wonderful, the whole experience.'

Speaking to TV host Conan O'Brien back in 2017, she added: 'It took two days to shoot the sex scene, because I think it was us making sweet love for an entire calendar year. So it was all the holidays, you know. So we dressed differently for every one.'

Morena is not the only one to have spoken about the awkward sex scenes, as Ryan previously described shooting a year's worth of saucy moments with his co-star.

In 2016, Ryan spoke to The Fix about the filming process and described the results of filming the sex scenes as 'horrifying'.

Describing the marathon montage as 'epic', he said: 'It's not as titillating as it is just sort of funny and horrifying at times.'

'It was a year's worth of sex in one day. Which sounds a lot more romantic than it is, trust me,' he added.

Deadpool saw Ryan plays cancer-stricken mercenary Wade who, in an attempt to save his life, is subjected to an experimental treatment which causes mutations.

He is inadvertently left with healing superpowers, but also disfigured skin, an unstable mind, and a 'dark, twisted' sense of humor.

Deadpool has since been turned into a hit franchise and Ryan is currently getting ready to start filming for the third movie, slated for release in 2024.

The movie will see Ryan's character use a time travel machine to save Hugh Jackman's Wolverine before his death in 2029 but they end up lost in the Multiverse. 

While they are in the Multiverse, they will be pursued by Mobius, who has access to time-travel technology. 

Speaking about training for the movie, Ryan recently revealed the demanding schedule he is undergoing to get back into shape for the film.

He joked that keeping up with Hugh, 54, is going to be a challenge as they prepare for the third flick. 

Earlier this month, Ryan said: 'I'm trying… Hugh Jackman is a beast, you know? He's clearly obsessed with his own body.

'So, keeping up with someone who's that diligent is going to be challenging.'

After a clip of Ryan's jokey comment was posted on Twitter, Hugh said in response: 'More like petrified. Have you seen you?'
