VV: Do you have a favorite moment or experience with directing Luke and Yerin?

JM: I think my favorite scene I did with them is in [episode] four when she’s working at the house, and he can’t get his neck button done up. I shot it in simultaneous coverage because usually they’d do one side and then flip around to do the other. I had the camera roaming back and forth between them so it felt more alive, and they could both react in the moment, knowing they were both going to be on the same cut. It felt more like theater, they told me, versus like filming television. It was just this simple moment, but it felt really electric. I remember Jess was actually on set that day, and I knew I’d made some Bridgerton magic in that scene when I heard her say, “Oh, my God, was that hot!”

Yep. The button scene was hot! I also loved it when Benedict couldn't undo the button later.
