Director Leslye Headland said that she wrote the sex scene in the script to be incredibly graphic, but she also put a big disclaimer before the scene in bold print that said "You will not see any nudity during this scene" because she didn't want to scare off potential actors. One of the financiers asked her to revise that scene because they were having trouble raising money because of it. But Headland said that the "kind of fucking they do" is really important to the characters. Once Alison Brie and Adam Scott signed on to play those characters, they both told Headland they wanted the roles because of the way the sex scene was written.
