Fans have gone wild for the new series of the upcoming docudrama Pam & Tommy which documents the true story of the 90s power couple Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee’s infamous sex tape scandal.
And now producers have revealed the show is about to get even more personal after Hollywood bosses have cast someone to play they part of Tommy’s penis on the show.
The eight-part series – which is set to hit screens next month – features an intimate scene where the Motley Crue drummer confesses he is falling in love with the Baywatch star.
But what viewers won’t be expecting to see is the star having an intimate one-to-one chat with his member as he opens up about his feelings for the Playboy star.

The hilarious scene is said to be an ode to Lee’s autobiography Tommyland with his well-known member set to be voiced by The Good Place and Brooklyn Nine-Nine star Jason Mantzoukas.
Series writer Robert Siegel explained: “As much as I’d like to take credit for that, I was simply adapting a character from [Lee’s] memoir.
“I think it might be a first [for television]. There was gentle pushback, because you’ve got to push back a little when a talking penis is presented to you. But Hulu was extremely supportive.”

He went on to explain how “awkward” the scene was on set after they constructed an animatronic penis for the role.
The star explained: “You’ve got four puppeteers working with an animatronic penis.
“And then, how much is too much, and do you start to lose his emotional torment of what’s going on? Hopefully it works.”
Sebastian Stan – who plays the role of Tommy Lee in the show – explained how he felt after filming the intimate scene with his co-star.

He added: “By the end of it, I treated it like it was an intimate buddy conversation that one might have when they’re falling in love.”
Stan will star alongside Lily James – who portrays the role of Pamela Anderson – with Seth Rogen and Parks and Rec star Nick Offerman playing the parts of the electricians responsible for the theft.
Pam & Tommy premieres on Hulu in February 2022. UK viewers will be able to catch the first three episodes on the same day on Disney+.
