Dakota Johnson Has an Intimate Scene with St. Vincent in Sundance Movie 'The Nowhere Inn'

The music mockumentary The Nowhere Inn, staring Carrie Brownstein and St. Vincent as themselves, debuted at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival and the movie happens to feature a cameo appearance from Dakota Johnson!

In the film, the stars play versions of themselves and Carrie is directing a documentary about St. Vincent‘s life on tour.

Dakota shows up in a hotel room scene. Variety reports that “St. Vincent begs Brownstein’s character to shoot a sensual scene of her and Johnson, both clad in matching lingerie, with her iPhone.”

St. Vincent, whose real name is Annie Clark, told the outlet that Dakota was “a really great sport for what was a very strange ask. I think it was originally, like, ‘Dakota will you play my girlfriend?’”

Carrie added, “It wasn’t like, ‘Will you put on lingerie and come hang out?’”

While the scene was an intimate one, they said they didn’t have an intimacy coordinator as there wasn’t an actual sex scene.
