Well this is nothing short of AWKWARD!
On Wednesday’s episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live, Ewan McGregor sat down with his daughter Clara to chat about their upcoming film Bleeding Love. The father-daughter duo star side-by-side in the new flick, but this isn’t the first time the 52-year-old’s films have played a significant role in the 29-year-old’s life. In fact, she dished on the show that she had a super embarrassing run-in with one of his movies while still in high school!

According to the film producer, her “quite memorable” moment with her dad’s 1997 movie The Pillow Book came while she was a senior taking a gender studies class:
“When I was a senior in high school I took a gender studies class. My teacher came up to me near the end of the semester and was like, ‘Listen, there’s a movie that I usually teach, it’s part of the curriculum, your dad is in it. There is some nudity so I wanted to run it by you before we watched it in class.'”
Despite the warning, Clara didn’t think it would be a big deal at the time:
“And I said it was fine. I didn’t really think much of it. And so we watched the movie called The Pillow Book, which is a brilliant film. But watching that movie at 17 with your entire high school class, it’s more like they’re watching me watch that film, which was definitely an interesting…”
Host Jimmy Kimmel then jumped in with his own question, asking the Star Wars actor how much her dad appeared nude in the film. Ewan embarrassedly replied:
“A lot.”
Oof! So, SO awkward!! But Clara seemed to think it was pretty funny above all else, even while adding:
“Full-frontally nude, the whole time.”
Wow…
Just try and put yourself in her shoes for a moment! Wild!! The Doctor Sleep star wasn’t unaware of the film being shown to the senior class, though. He said the teacher even emailed him about it beforehand:
“I went, ‘Look, I wouldn’t want to be the reason you don’t show that movie to your kids because it’s a beautiful movie.’ But I said, ‘You have to guarantee that the kids are mature enough not to make fun of Clara or make her feel bad about it.'”
As for what his daughter had to say about it, though — it was not exactly the smoothest moment:
” It was uncomfortable. I think they [other students] also probably felt a little uncomfortable.”
No kidding!! Ch-ch-check out the clip (below):
