Elliot Page Says He Had Sex With Co-Star ‘All The Time’ While Filming Juno

Elliot Page has shared that during the filming of the hit film “Juno,” he was intimately involved with his co-star.

The 37-year-old actor, who came out as transgender in 2020, detailed this relationship in his 2023 memoir titled “Pageboy.”

Elliot, who portrayed the pregnant teenager Juno in the 2007 film, was immediately drawn to Olivia Thirlby, who played Juno’s best friend Leah.

He describes his first impression in the memoir: “I was taken aback the moment I saw Olivia Thirlby. She seemed so much older, capable, and centered.”

“Sexually open, far removed from where I was at the time. But the chemistry was palpable, it pulled me in.”

In his book, Elliot shares details of their intimate encounters, including a moment when he and Olivia were passionately kissing in a hotel room.

He recounts that Olivia confessed she was ‘really attracted’ to him, and he felt the same about her.

Elliot expressed, “It was on. I had an all-encompassing desire for her, she made me want in a way that was new, hopeful.”

He mentions it was one of the first times someone made him experience an orgasm.

According to Elliot, their sexual encounters were frequent during the production of “Juno.”

He remembers the various places they were intimate, including “Her hotel room, in our trailers at work, once in a tiny, private room in a restaurant…”

“We thought we were being subtle. Being intimate with Olivia helped my shame dissipate.”

“I didn’t see a glint of it in her eyes and I wanted that — done feeling wretched about who I am,” he wrote.

Around the time “Juno” was filmed, Olivia and Elliot were also cast as the main characters in “Jack & Diane,” a film about two young women falling in love.

However, both actors eventually left the project before it began, and other actors took their places.

Olivia, who came out as bisexual in 2011, married Jacques Pienaar in 2014, but they filed for divorce in 2021.

Elliot’s revelation comes after he disclosed a previous secret relationship with Kate Mara, which began while they were filming “X-Men: Days of Future Past.”

In “Pageboy,” he discussed this relationship, noting that Kate, who was dating Max Minghella at the time, was ‘in love with two people’.
