Model-turned-actress Alexandra Daddario had always dreamed of becoming an actress. She started her acting career with the ABC soap opera, ‘ All My Children.’ Though this role did not give her the “big break” she deserved, it did get her started. A few years after this, she finally earned acclaim and recognition after she played the role of Annabeth Chase in ‘Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief.’ Soon after this, her Hollywood career was full of ups and downs; she was part of movies like ‘Texas Chainsaw 3D’, ‘San Andreas,’ ‘Baywatch’ and ‘Hall Pass.’
But somewhere amidst her mainstream popularity, she had to make some really bold choices to make a name for herself. Many of these roles that she played back in the day were less significant and simply overly sexualized. That said, let’s take a look at the top Alexandra Daddario steamy movie/TV show scenes.
9. The Attic (2007)
‘The Attic’ is probably one of the lowest-rated films in which Alexandra Daddario has acted but it’s her presence itself that will probably get you past the first few moments. This indie horror film is about a girl named Emma who moves to a new house with her family. But one day, she finds her identical twin in the attic of the house, who then starts to haunt the whole place. The film is not at all intriguing but the opening scene, featuring Daddario, is enough to make you stay for a little longer than you would want to.
In this nude scene, the actress sits naked in a bathtub, and just when you start fantasizing about her stepping out of that tub, the dark horror undertone of the film takes over. She hears some kind of noise right outside her bathroom, and that’s when she walks out of the bathtub and flaunts her voluptuous curves. You can stream the film on Tubi.
8. Why Women Kill (2019-)
‘Why Women Kill’ is a dark comedy-drama that tells the story of three different women from three different decades who are all dealing with the same problem — a cheating husband. In this one scene, Alexandra Daddario gets into a threesome, and once they’re done, she shares a passionate kiss with her female co-star. Though this scene doesn’t have much graphic nudity, it easily qualifies as one of her steamiest moments on screen. Alexandra’s character later gets so involved with her female co-star that the two literally forget that there’s also a man with them. As the man tries to get their attention again, the two women ask for a moment and leave the poor guy alone. ‘Why Women Kill’ can be streamed on Paramount+.
7. The Layover (2017)
Starring Alexandra Daddario and Kate Upton, ‘The Layover’ is about two young women, Kate and Meg, who have been friends for a long time now. To take a break from their lives, the pair decide to go on an impromptu flight to Fort Lauderdale. After finding themselves seated next to a handsome young man on the flight, a friendly competition involving getting his attention is sparked between them. But what starts off as a game of tug of war soon sends them into a downward spiral of destruction where both of them are just willing to do anything to get the man’s attention. All is fair in love and war but would it be worth losing their long-term friendship over a battle of their egos?
Alexandra’s character manages to win the competition after she finally gets to sleep with the man she met on the flight. Now, this sex scene really comes off as awkward. There is absolutely no nudity, and one can clearly tell that the actors are just faking everything. It looks like the scene has been made in such a way that it should suit the whole comical setup of the film but in the end, it is neither funny nor sensuous in any way. So the only reason why you would want to watch the movie is that it just has two really hot leading actresses. ‘The Layover’ can be streamed on Prime.
6. American Horror Story (2011-)
In ‘American Horror Story,’ Alexandra Daddario plays the role of Natacha Rambova, the wife of a silent film actor named Rudolph Valentino. Pretty much like many other actors involved in the series, she appears only for 3 episodes. But despite having a brief role, she impresses you with her memorable performance and stunning looks. ‘American Horror Story,’ as the name suggests, is known for having some of the creepiest sex scenes.
The scene that features Alexandra Daddario is not as disturbing as many other scenes of the series, and despite being a threesome, it actually feels quite normal compared to the others. Since you don’t always get to see big names such as Lady Gaga and Daddario in a threesome, this one deserves to be on the list. Now, as much as we love Alexandra, the involvement of Lady Gaga just makes this scene even more sizzling, and when the two stars start kissing each other, you can’t help but swoon over the chemistry between them. Later, the actress even claimed in an interview that though she gets really uncomfortable during sex scenes, Lady Gaga’s presence made her feel much better and that she had a pretty good time shooting it. The series can be streamed on Hulu.
5. Mayfair Witches (2023- )
Created by Esta Spalding and Michelle Ashford, ‘Mayfair Witches’ is a supernatural series based on Anne Rice’s ‘Lives of the Mayfair Witches’ novel trilogy. The series centers on young and hardworking neurosurgeon Rowan Fielding (Daddario), who discovers she belongs to a dynasty of witches and has to deal with a shape-shifting evil force that has wreaked havoc on her family for generations. Thankfully, she has her powers, although she needs to hone them. The series also stars Tongayi Chirisa, Harry Hamlin, and Jack Huston.
Episode 8 of the series has a dark and steamy sex scene between Rowan and a dark entity named Lasher (Huston). While it isn’t explicit, the eroticism is palpable, added by a background score that describes the supernatural forces at play. You can stream the series on Netflix.
4. The Babysitters (2007)
Shirley is a 17-year-old high school girl who tries to save up some money for her college by babysitting young children. One day, when the father of a child who she babysits starts to confess how much he hates his married life, she kisses him. This really makes the man happy, and he gives her an extra tip. This is when, along with some of her teenage friends, she decides to start a babysitting service where young teen girls “babysit” other unhappy fathers.
Alexandra Daddario plays a very small role in the film but one of her brief sex scenes will surely get your attention. This scene is so small that even if you have seen the film before, you might have failed to notice that it actually has Alexandra Daddario in it. It depicts her having sex with a man in his car, and though it does not last too long, it is probably one of the few scenes in the film that is actually worth watching. You can watch ‘The Babysitters’ on Prime.
3. Burying the Ex (2014)
Directed by Joe Dante, ‘Burying the Ex’ is a zombie comedy similar to ‘Life After Beth.’ It tells the story of a diehard horror movie fan whose girlfriend crawls out of her grave to pursue their relationship forever. It’s one of those absurd films where you can have a really good time if you learn to embrace its silliness.
The film has many disturbing yet hilarious graphic moments that you would expect from a zombie film. There is just this one sex scene in the entire movie where Olivia (Alexandra Daddario) has a quickie with Max in a car. This scene only lasts for a few seconds, but as long as we admire Alexandra’s hotness, we’re okay with pretty much anything, aren’t we? You can stream the movie on Prime.
2. Lost Girls and Love Hotels (2020)
Based on a 2006 novel by Catherine Hanrahan, ‘Lost Girls and Love Hotels’ is an erotic drama. It follows Margaret (Daddario), a disaffected young lady whose life cycle seems to have only three steps- teaching English at a flight attendant training school in Tokyo during the day, drinking booze at night, and having kinky bondage sex with strange men.
During one such one-night stand, she meets Kazu (Takehiro Hira), a yakuza member, and they start a relationship despite Kazu about to get married. From here begins Margaret’s downward spiral, propelled by loneliness and grief. The sex scenes between the two are dimly set, and though not graphic, they incorporate nudity and carry a sense of eroticism that comes with two strangers exploring each other’s bodies. You can watch the film on Tubi.
1. True Detective (2014-)
Season 1 of ‘True Detective’ was HBO’s greatest debut since ‘Broadwalk Empire.’ With its second episode in the first season, the show not only brought in some of its dark murder mystery elements but also introduced Alexandra Daddario to the most mature role that she has ever played. Despite her extremely short screen time in the series, Daddario leaves a significant mark with her bold scenes.
Quite a few scenes in the series could easily be regarded as among the best TV sex scenes of all time, but one scene stands out. In this scene, Alexandra’s character, Lisa, welcomes Detective Hart (Woody Harrelson) inside her home, and he then gifts her a set of handcuffs. As she tries to pour him some drinks, not being able to hold himself back, Hart tries to strip her down. That’s when she turns around and sits on his lap. She then seductively handcuffs him to the kitchen counter, slowly strips down every piece of her cloth, and then starts to go down on him. ‘True Detectives’ can be streamed on Max.
