Lena Waithe's production company adding intimacy coordinators to all its projects

Deadline

“Intimacy coordinators should not only be mandatory on every set, but they should reflect people from all walks of life,” The Chi and Twenties boss tells Deadline. “That’s why myself and everyone at Hillman Grad productions thought it was important to invest in helping Black and Brown people, as well as those in the LBTQIA+ community, get certified. It’s a great way to ensure everyone feels safe on set — especially with the person helping them to coordinate intimate scenes.”
