Elliot Page has claimed he had sex 'all the time' with co-star while they were filming the hit film Juno.
The actor, 36, who came out as transgender in 2020, has recounted his alleged fling in his new memoir Pageboy, obtained by Page Six.
Elliot, who played pregnant teenager Juno in the 2007 film, said he was immediately attracted to co star, Olivia Thirlby, who portrayed Juno's best pal Leah.
He said: "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."
Elliot recalled intimate moments from their fling in his memoir, including an instance where he and Olivia were 'sucking face' in a hotel room.
The actor claimed Olivia had admitted she was 'really attracted' to him and he reciprocated her feelings.
Elliot went on: "It was on. I had an all-encompassing desire for her, she made me want in a way that was new, hopeful."
The 36-year-old said it was one of the first times someone made him orgasm.
Elliot also claimed he and Olivia had sex 'all the time' while filming Juno and recalled the locations where they allegedly got intimate.
"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 penned.
LADbible has contacted representatives for Olivia Thirlby for comment.
Around the same time that Juno was filmed, Olivia and Elliot were set to star as the main characters in Jack & Diane, in which they would portray two young women who fall in love.
However, both stars dropped out before production and other actors were cast in the roles.
Olivia, who publicly revealed she is bisexual in 2011, went on to marry Jacques Pienaar in 2014, before filing for divorce in 2021.
Elliot's claims come after he revealed he previously had a secret relationship with Kate Mara, after striking up a romance while filming X-Men: Days of Future Past.
He discussed the relationship in his memoir, saying Kate - who was dating Max Minghella at the time - was 'in love with two people'.
