The third season of SexEducation is finally here and asabfb gives W an inside look on what’s happening with Otis and the crew at Moordale:
, which dropped in 2020, also received high praise, and the recently released third season is even better. Butterfield credits this growth to the writing and the ensemble cast’s performances, which get deeper every season while keeping the story focused on Otis’ growth.
Butterfield posited that where Otis really grows in season three is in his “confidence” as a person. “As an actor, it's always fun to play another side of a character,” he said. He credits the character’s growth to his relationship with Ruby, as well as the improvement of his connection to his mother, a sex therapist. Throughout the first two seasons, Otis—in typical teen fashion—rarely listens to his mother Jean and is annoyed by her existence.
With this increase in the character’s confidence come more mature scenes for Butterfield, who admits he is “quite numb” to the shocking intimate moments the writers put on the page at this point. He thanks the writing for making it easy to film those, because raunchy scenes are “always in the context of the character.” He also credits the welcoming atmosphere on set, which includes an intimacy coordinator.
Through his friendships and relationships, Otis continues to discover himself. “He actually really loves helping people and connecting with people,” Butterfield said. “That's where he finds joy. He's trying to figure out why he's doing it. At first, it's Maeve [Emma Mackey], but he comes to realize that actually his main reason for doing it is because he loves helping people.
