Theo James sent the internet into meltdown with his revealing nude scene in the season premiere of The White Lotus last year. 

After months of speculation, the 37-year-old English actor put the rumours to rest in a recent appearance on The Tonight Show, when he admitted to wearing a prosthetic over his manhood. 

When asked if he went au naturel for filming, Theo confessed that he’d received some help from the costume department, joking that he was shocked at the ‘ginormous’ item.

He explained: ‘The truth of it was, you go into these things and you have a conversation with the director and the producers, and they go, “OK, for this, we’re going to use a prosthetic, we’re gonna use something.” It’s a pee-pee prosthetic!’ 

Yet the use of prosthetics on set isn’t that uncommon. Now we take a look at other stars who have opted to use fake phalluses in filming.

Sebastian Stan – Pam & Tommy 

While taking on the role of Tommy Lee in the Pamela Anderson biopic, Sebastian donned a prosthetic member made from silicone and cast using a mold of his own penis so it could be sculpted and blended to fit. 

Special makeup effects designer Jason detailed the process for GQ magazine, explaining: ‘We apply the piece by having the actor saddle himself into the appliance like a sleeve. We then glue it into place and paint it with sheer washes of colour including vein work. 

‘All modesty is out the door in these scenarios and we become quick personal friends when you’re in those positions!’

Speaking about the scene, Jonah revealed: ‘There were a lot of background artists on set that day who hadn’t read the script, so they just know that they’re in a scene and a guy is pulling out his genitalia and masturbating in front of them at a big party. 

‘So for them, it was really funny, but for the main characters, it’s really inappropriate and disturbing. So, I had to tell everyone that while their first instinct was to laugh, I had to take it very seriously so that we got the appropriate response.’
