Barry Keoghan debunks ‘enhanced’ Saltburn scene speculation insisting it was ‘all’ really him

Yes, Barry Keoghan’s nude Saltburn dance was the real deal.

Although some had doubts that the Dunkirk actor would reveal his member on the big screen, Keoghan insists that it was “all” him.

The Saltburn (2023) scene in question shows Keoghan dancing in the nude.

While discussing the topic on “The Louis Theroux Podcast”, host Louis Theroux brought up the fact that some Saltburn viewers believed Keoghan was wearing a “prosthetic” member.

Some even believed that the actor’s downstairs department was “enhanced” with movie magic.

However, The Batman actor was quick to debunk all speculation.

“Enhanced? Who said that? Nah, wow,” Keoghan responded with shock.

“It was all me,” he insisted.

“It was a thing that I didn’t really bat an eyelid to,” he also revealed.

“You know, I would bat an eyelid if it didn’t fit the story.”

He continued: “He’s kind of got this mansion at the end, it’s his space. And when you have that space … we all do it at home: we walk around naked, do you know what I mean?”

“Because we’re comfy and this is our environment.”

“It’s just beautiful to look at that (…) but to watch the body of someone run through rooms like that, it’s like a painting almost.”

Keoghan didn’t only believe it worked for the story, but that it also “felt right” to him, as he previously revealed to Entertainment Weekly.

“The initial thing was about me having no clothes on. I’m a bit, ehhh,” he admitted.

However, he continued: “But after take one, I was ready to go.”

“I was like, ‘Let’s go again. Let’s go again.’ You kind of forget, because there’s such a comfortable environment created, and it gives you that license to go, ‘All right, this is about the story now.’”

He went on to film the scene 10 more times after his initial take.
