I think they sometimes do that (Sandy Johnson told me she was chosen to play Judith Myers in the opening scene of Halloween from a casting call specifically seeking women who had worked in pornography because of the nudity required; she had previously posed for Playboy). But not in most cases. For both this and the Madden example, they were seeking regular extras that fit the description and were comfortable with nudity. I was in an orgie scene in an independent movie last year (I would say what it is, but the film only recently premiered at Telluride and hasn’t been released yet), although it was far tamer, with the only nudity being a few topless women. All of those women were paid actresses that were okay with it, and receiving bumps. We had an intimacy coordinator on set. I was paid $25 extra per day to take my shirt off, which ended up being several days for continuity reasons; the day after the party was very important to the story, and my character (pretty featured) was lying passed out on the floor for most of that action. lol
