Although Joseph Morgan isn't necessarily a fan of nude scenes, he showed off all his hard work for Brother Blood's emergence from the pool of blood in "Titans" Season 4, Episode 7. However, getting rid of all his clothes wasn't the only problem on set that day.
Morgan discussed filming the Temple of Azarath scene with Screen Rant's Andy Behbakht ahead of Episode 7's premiere, revealing that two separate pools were used for it. One was shallow and filled with colored water, but the other, more problematic one, had thick glucose-like liquid in it, which the actor had to submerge himself in. "The problem with that, Andy, is it was incredibly buoyant," Morgan described. "Nobody realized that it was physically impossible for me to go below the surface because you're fighting it. So, I ended up doing the whole last bit of the walk with a 40-pound dumbbell in each hand so that it would be heavy enough to actually go below the surface."
While the scene brought its fair share of problems to the production, Morgan always knew what was in store would blow fans away. "That ain't nothing. Wait until you see me come out of the pool," he said, knowing that the work he put in off-screen would pay off tenfold.
