BUFF: Alexander admits he was injured during a sex scene

The hunky star admits despite performing countless stunts in the upcoming film it was the X-rated parts of his job that left him wincing.

Chatting about getting down and dirty, the actor explained: "Even though I'm fighting apes, the only injury I got was from a sex scene with Margot - she hit me!

"Our director David Yates wanted our sex scene to be really animalistic, so he was behind the camera saying things like, 'Hit him harder! Come on!'

"He kind of egged us on and wanted to feel very primal, so she beat me up!"

Margot is no stranger to turning up the heat on camera.

STUNNER: Margot turned up the heat in Wolf Of Wall Street

She previously set hearts racing when she starred alongside Leonardo Dicaprio in 2013 hit Wolf Of Wall Street.

However, it seems all has been forgiven, with Margot even cooking spaghetti bolognese to make up for her feistiness.

"It took us three seconds to realise we really got along; we had the same sense of humour," he told Closer Mag.

"Tarzan and Jane have to be drawn to each other, and the audience need to feel it - obviously it wasn't hard acting that with Margot, she's so charming!"
