Other actors draw their own lines
Grace is not the only performer to set limits on screen material. In September, Amanda Seyfried said at the Hamptons International Film Festival that she no longer wants roles requiring sex scenes. And in 2007, Amy Adams played Giselle in Disney's Enchanted; Andy Samberg later recounted on a podcast that Adams declined a raunchy SNL sketch to protect her Enchanted image. Adams returned as Giselle in the 2022 sequel Disenchanted.
