London: Hollywood beauty Anne Hathawayaccepts the fact that she has to get naked as an actress andbelieves every actor should be prepared to strip if the rolerequires nudity.

The Princess Diaries star, who recently posed nudefor a number of scenes in her film Love & Other Drugsalongside actor Jake Gyllenhaal has no qualms to strip infront of the cameras and completely relies on her co-stars tohelp her overcome any pre-scene nerves, Bang Showbiz reported.

"Doing nudity is really a part of being an actor andyou know at some point it might happen. But everyone wants tobe respectful of each other and everyone wants each other tofeel as comfortable as possible so I think those days have afocus," said Hathaway.

"In this film (Love & Other Drugs) we reallyapproached it from a very prepared place. We discussed what wewanted to do beforehand and what we were comfortable with, wetraded references from other films to establish an index ofcommunicational references that we share. So by the time wecame to do the scenes we were very well prepared," said the28-year-old actress.

Though Hathaway is comfortable with nudity she foundmany lovemaking sequences difficult to film with her co-starGyllenhaal in Love & Other Drugs.

"Some of the intimate scenes required even more trustand were even more difficult to get to and work through - toget yourself into that place and sustain it for a long periodof time to be able to return back to those emotions again andagain and again. Physical challenges are one thing but toactually leave yourself open and to mean it I find quitedifficult some days," she added.
