Elliot Page claims he had sex with Juno co-star Olivia Thirlby "all the time" on set
"I was taken aback the moment I saw Olivia Thirlby," the 36-year-old actor writes in his bombshell book, "Pageboy."
"The Umbrella Academy" star wrote that although they were the same age, Thirlby seemed "so much older, capable.
"Sexually open, far from where I was at the time. But the chemistry was palpable, it drew me in."
Page said they began spending a lot of time together, and then one day, while standing in Thirlby's hotel room, the actress "looked right at me and said point blank, 'I'm really attracted to you.'
The Canadian-born actor admitted similar feelings for Thirlby - who played Page's quirky best friend in the 2007 teen pregnancy film.
"That's when we started sucking our faces," he claimed. “It was on.
"I had an all-encompassing desire for her, she made me want in a way that was new, hopeful. It was one of the first times someone made me c-m, the first time he opened up," Page wrote.
The couple, according to Page, began having sex "all the time" and everywhere.
"Her hotel room in our trailers at work, once in a small private room at a restaurant... We thought we were being refined. Being intimate with Olivia helped to dispel my shame. I didn't see a glimmer of him." her eyes and I wanted it—done with feeling miserable about who I am,” he wrote.
Thirlby's publicist did not immediately return Page Six's request for comment.
Thirlby, also 36, came out as bisexual in a 2011 interview and has been married to Jacques Pienaar since 2014.
Page came out as gay in 2014 and as transgender in December 2020.
Elsewhere in the memoir, the Oscar nominee wrote that he fell in love with actress Kate Mara while starring in the 2014 film "X-Men: Days of Future Past."
Mara, 40, was dating "The Handmaid's Tale" star Max Minghella, 37, at the same time, prompting the "House of Cards" alum to share, "I never thought I could be in love with two people, and now I know." I can.”
Page also revealed a shocking incident that happened after he came out as gay, but before his transition.
He claimed that an unnamed A-list actor
he shared at a birthday party in Los Angeles in 2014: "I'll f—k you so you know you're not gay," in a chapter applied titled "Famous A-hole at Party."
He added that a famous colleague, whom he describes only as an "acquaintance", insisted: "You're not gay. That doesn't exist. You're just afraid of men."
Disturbingly, Page also recounted a terrifying incident in Los Angeles last year where a crazed man started spewing obscenities.
"I'm going to beat you gay, f—t," the man yelled, forcing the actor to run to the convenience store for help.
Page, who recently shared on Instagram that he never believed he could experience "the joy I feel in my body," is currently on a short North American tour in support of the memoir.
