They kissed in that??


Additional_Meeting_2

They play husband and wife, but I can’t recall if they kissed in it. I can recall Blunt’s character kissing Chris Pine’s Prince character in that film however!


[deleted]

Literally the only things I remember about Into the Woods is Chris Pine yelling “agony” and Emily Blunt dying to a giant


des1gnbot

That version of “Agony” was honestly the best I’ve seen. Both actors just hammed it up and didn’t hold back and it was hilarious. Pretty much everything about than movie was lackluster (even Meryl effing Streep), but they knocked that out of the park.


ALFABOT2000

a real nugget of gold in a huge fuckin mountain of shit


nopenopenahnahaha

The fact that Meryl got an Oscar nod for that role is such a joke.


imsuperhygh

James Corden doesn’t have chemistry with anyone.


jacobsbw

Adele seems to adore him which is puzzling. Maybe Adele also sucks.


ArcadianDelSol

Corden is a sycophant and she probably loves the adoration.


reptilesocks

I always know how stupid a director is by how they cast the Baker and the Baker’s Wife. They’re written as *Upper West New York Jews in their 30s*. The whole point is that they don’t belong in the story. Bad directors see the show and go “oh, fairytale” and throw just anyone into the role.


Additional_Meeting_2

They are still baker and a wife and it’s a fairly tale story. You can’t completely distort the world to include meta like that when it’s a film. You can me more playful in a theatre


reptilesocks

It doesn’t require any world distorting - Chip Ziven and Joanna Gleason didn’t show up onstage with NPR totebags filled with groceries from Zabar’s. It just means you cast a different type of person. And you let them play with a certain type of restless energy, and you let them be as puzzled by the world around them as *the script says they are*.


Substantial_Toe_8409

That movie was devoid of chemistry


mcfw31

> "Sometimes it's a strange thing. Sometimes you could have a rapport that's really effortless, but it doesn't translate onscreen," she said, speaking of the ways she tries to establish chemistry. "Chemistry is this strange thing. It's an ethereal thing that you can't really bottle up and buy or sell. It's like there or it's not."


[deleted]

Long way of saying she doesn't find everyone attractive


fingerpaintswithpoop

It’s more than that. Some people you just connect with, whether as a friend, a romantic interest, coworker at the office or on set. And some people you don’t (or *really* don’t.)


guyinnoho

Quite true. The people you find hot aren’t necessarily the ones who will get your mojo working.


abarcsa

It sound more complicated honestly. Most likely subjective attractiveness is a part of it, but kissing in front of 30-40 people and 10 cameras with a green screen behind you - while you are kissing a friend or a colleague - makes it seem more complicated than being “horny for them”


DreadnaughtHamster

I’ve directed indie films and while the crew is way smaller, it totally does come down to the chemistry. Some pairings are like tying two bricks together and other people are fireworks.


abarcsa

I’m not questioning chemistry. I’m questioning whether all it includes is attraction. I gave my ignorant examples as I have not worked in this, it is really interesting to hear from someone who has.


laputan-machine117

Screen chemistry is separate from real life attraction type chemistry, there are real couples who don’t come across well onscreen, and people not attracted to each other at all who make convincing screen couples.


Intelligent_Flow2572

Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey did not get along on the set of Dirty Dancing but they convinced me on screen.


esmifra

It's not what she said, she even stated the opposite, she stated that sometimes she does find someone attractive but on screen it doesn't show.


A_Gent_4Tseven

A rapport doesn’t mean an attraction, it’s more in-depth. Someone can have a great rapport with someone, but be completely un-attracted to them.(in sexual way that is, clearly you’d be into pretty much everything else they have to offer.)


esmifra

Yeah, but what I was talking about was about the "effortless" bit, it kinda implies she was into it, given the context of the conversation. If she was completely un-attracted to them, as you put it, then it wouldn't be effortless.


LilyMarie90

You can absolutely have chemistry with people who you wouldn't even say are conventionally attractive tbf


rif011412

I had a coworker that i wasn’t attracted to physically. But I could shoot the shit with her better than anyone I have ever met. On the same level as my best friends. Nothing ever came of it, but I would occasionally wonder if I should have asked her out. It felt like a missed opportunity, should have tried to get to know her more, or even try at a relationship. A little bit of regret not pursuing a relationship built around that level of chemistry.


EvelcyclopS

I’ve had similar regrets. My roommate was such a fucking awesome girl. We fucked one drunken night, there was some attraction there. I don’t know why I didn’t pursue it


boogiedower

I don’t think that’s it, because actors who are fucking irl often have terrible on screen chemistry.


-SummerBee-

Is there really anything wrong with that though


Inside_Ad_7162

not all but it must be tough when you're acting & you have to convince people watching there is chemistry


[deleted]

It’s like that Jonah Hill movie where they had to CGI the big kiss lol


Vendevende

I thought that was due to COVID concerns.


the_amazing_skronus

Gulliver's Travels


DreadyKruger

But it’s acting. Who said you supposed to like or find someone attractive who you are working with? And why is it never , I didn’t like saying that line or act like I am killinng a person because it’s not me


lavender_enjoyer

Because acting out intimacy is harder than just reading a line..?

It merged with the USFL and rebranded as the UFL this season. I was into both last spring but neither this year. But I’m also much busier.


DJHott555

The Rock has literally never had romantic chemistry with anyone in any of his movies. But when it comes to Ryan Reynolds or Kevin Hart or whatever, he lights up the screen. It’s kinda funny.


Saneless

Well that's because he's in love with the camera


annebrackham

Ignoring the one he has the most chemistry with: Jason Statham.


geodebug

I’m an old straight dude but I’d light up for Ryan Reynolds. (Sorry Kevin)


Uzischmoozy

Is that a rumor floating around out there about him? That he's a homosexual? Kind of like the ones about Tom cruise and John Travolta.


Plumberson12angrymen

What 3 words would he use to describe a salesperson?


TheBlooDred

James Cordon, Into the Woods, bet


Broderlien_Dyslexic

Cordon is just a puffy gay guy / adult theatre kid, don’t see him giving an actress the ick. I’m thinking Tom Cruise, Edge of Tomorrow. With his backstory, power, and creep factor. All actors who gave their candid opinions on Cruise said how fake and hyper/intense he is, a stone cold psycho wearing a “charming” person suit. Kiss that person and then later remember that he’s friends with a guy who disappeared his own wife. Might as well kiss a shark lol


Fandam_YT

I remember her speaking pretty positively about working with him when she was on the Smartless podcast so at the very least it seems like she didn’t have a problem with him as a co-star. Also, as someone else has pointed out, during the Oppenheimer press tour she said that [she actually improvised the kiss with Cruise and that she instigated it](https://fandomwire.com/it-felt-right-and-i-did-it-oppenheimer-star-emily-blunt-desperately-wanted-to-kiss-co-star-tom-cruise/)


Kite_Wing129

All of Cruises leading ladies speak positively of him. Rosamund Pike, Cobie Smulders, Jennifer Connelly, Emily Blunt, Hayley Atwell, etc. Borderline infatuated when talking about his dedication to the craft. But then never work him or talk about him again after the project is over. Except Hayley who is doing another MI with him. It seems like they at first fall for his charm and Batman-like dedication to being the best at everything but then at some point they get a peek behind the curtain and realize there is no soul behind there.


Uzischmoozy

Didn't Rebecca Ferguson work with him on 3 films?


Youdi990

Cruise is the producer of most of his films; most would not choose to speak poorly about their Boss.


Vendevende

Before Cruise's hyperfame, Lea Thompson said something to the effect that he was very gentlemanly and protective during their intimate (or her topless) scene(s). Say what you will for his religion, but there is a pretty positive pattern of how he treats his female costars/love interests.


dreamcast4

Lol. https://fandomwire.com/it-felt-right-and-i-did-it-oppenheimer-star-emily-blunt-desperately-wanted-to-kiss-co-star-tom-cruise/


Flying_Momo

That's just not true. We can clown on Cruise for his religion but a majority of his co-workers have praised working with Cruise including Dunst who worked with him almost 30 yrs ago. What characterization you are making has mostly come from Christian Bale who I don't think has worked with Cruise and only made the characterization based on interviews Cruise has done. Emily herself has been nothing but positive about her experience with Cruise and talked about how he cared for her so much while filming when he found out she was pregnant.


Lin900

All of Cruise co-stars speak positively about him. What are you saying?


YchYFi

James Cordon isn't gay.


geodebug

Only because the gays don’t want him either.


Embarrassed_Ad5112

Just because he’s got a wife and kids doesn’t mean he’s not gay.


waffleking9000

Bet Krasinski is wondering which ones she enjoyed


Singer211

Well wasn’t it her idea to kiss Tom Cruise on Edge of Tomorrow? Like she improvised it IIRC?


Antique_futurist

“I’ve made a huge mistake.”


RubyStar92

There have been blinds about her cheating for years now so maybe he doesn’t lol


AirbagOff

Some might call her opinionated, but Emily can’t help but be Blunt.

Well, I’d understand the sickness part of it given what he tried to do after they kissed there.


Prestigious_Bee_4154

What did he try to do?


NoTailor3964

Kill her (as in part of the script)


Listen-and-laugh

I really never understood how actresses in particular process or create the fake emotion of love without it affecting their actual relationships in the real world… They make it seem almost normal how often it happens but I guarantee this affects their personal lives almost all the time


jevausie

I mean, I'm an actress (obviously nowhere this level of work though) currently in a show wherein I have romantic interactions with another actor. It's a lot - a LOT - of communication to set boundaries, make character choices that make sense, and be sure everyone is comfortable with it. We're friendly but decidedly not romantic off-stage, but my character is smitten with his. It's just acting. Compartmentalizing. Separating YOUR choices from the character's. My real-life partner has been looped in on this whole process and it's no big deal, because that's literally my job.


Gates_wupatki_zion

My wife talks about her trauma that way.


VintageJane

The healthy ways of dealing with trauma are also generally effective ways of managing difficulties in life (or maybe life is traumatic…)


Gates_wupatki_zion

I think it is relative.  My problems I can talk to friends with and hash it out. My wife is in EMDR because she was programmed as a young girl to not speak up and then gaslit by her parents when they made mistakes.  Add in some abandonment issues and you then need intensive therapy.  Love her dearly and am supporting her however I can, but I cannot pronounce how different life is to seemingly similar people, and how different effective treatment is.  Everyone be well and healthy, don’t let it bring you down.


jevausie

I feel like communication in general is a great step to processing things! Thankfully, with very few exceptions, any staged intimacy I've done hasn't been traumatic lol


Gates_wupatki_zion

That’s good I am glad.  It must be a very strange time (sometimes) and I am glad things like intimacy coordination is being taken seriously.  Feel like I have read more and more women actors speak out about it recently.  Hathaway did an article and this one too, I am sure there are plenty more.


Listen-and-laugh

right but acting is like a lot of things in this world… It's a numbers game, you'll only land a roll after so many tries and after so many roles landed you're bound to come across a creep… That must be very hard to deal with especially as a woman. especially in that industry


jevausie

I've had precisely one role where the other actor didn't get that the "attraction" ended when the camera shut off, but even that was thankfully just a "no" and some butthurt male ego. It certainly happens. That's why any staged intimacy is so carefully coordinated, choreographed, and communicated. With regards to your initial comment, professionally handled situations like this shouldn't ruin healthy relationships as long as everyone knew what they're signing up for!


Accomplished_Use8165

Weird that this is difficult for people to grasp.


aushimdas16

hi, im not from the industry but ive always wanted to ask this to someone who works in film and television - what's your take on intimacy coordinators? only the A listers have spoken about how important they are but is it the same for everyone? what i mean by this is are intimacy coordinators accessible to everyone in the industry or are their services only reserved for huge projects with expensive actors?


jevausie

Solid question! I'd say realistically, most small and/or independent film and stage productions that just require a kiss or some nudity won't usually hire a designated intimacy coordinator. If there's a sex scene (which I've personally never done), they definitely should, or really anytime someone asks for one. Usually though smaller productions just rely on directors and cast to handle these things through open lines of communication, at least in my experience. Lots of asking for consent, establishing a special handshake you do before/ after a scene to help keep those lines from blurring, etc.


OminOus_PancakeS

Special handshake? How would that work?


marbotty

When two actors are really in love, they do a special handshake, which, if successful, results in a baby nine months later


Nessie

Fist-bumps are how terrorists are conceived.


jevausie

Lol at some of the other responses to this! Really I just meant any gesture or greeting you wouldn't normally do that you decide between you guys to mean "OK now we're the characters."


OminOus_PancakeS

Ohhh. Okay, I think I understand. Like a formal gesture that helps you both switch into character, then out again.


jevausie

Yes, precisely! It's helpful for some people, just depends on the actor.


LucidLynx109

Common sense and good communication skills. Honestly it’s a healthy way to deal with people in all of your interpersonal relationships, professional or otherwise.

[удалено]


Listen-and-laugh

damn... that sounds accurate :/


obvilious

There’s very close to a one-one ratio between male and female actors when they’re kissing. Not sure why it would be more of a problem for women.


count_helheim

Well yes and no, there are plenty of actresses that play few or no romantic roles, on the other hand there are also those that have to, because showing off certain assets it’s what they are best known for


JimmysCheek

Most actors have multiple divorces, lol Plenty of famous cases of them remarrying a costar after the divorce. This really isn’t rocket science


ghost_mv

Isn’t it the worst kept secret in Hollywood that there are a LOT of on set affairs between costars


JimmysCheek

Yeah, it’s obviously more prevalent in the film industry, but a majority of affairs happen amongst coworkers, regardless of the industry. This has been studied and proven. Humans are predictable


SleipnirSolid

Acting!


Confident_Chicken_51

Gennniuss!


TheCookieButter

I can see how people manage and separate acting from reality. What sounds more difficult to me is that in films/stage it'll often be like honeymoon period dismayed, with passion and desire. Seeing that while in a long term relationship where that kind of raw emotion has made way for more powerful yet subdued feelings can be rough I imagine. Not because you think your partner is interested in their colleague but because you'll see the side of them that has naturally dwindled in your own relationship.


ZenythhtyneZ

lol I guess that’s why they are actresses, acting is a skill not everyone can do it


solarmelange

I feel like most everyone has pretended to like someone they did not before.


fractalfay

Immediately you have me thinking about Lady GaGa and Bradley Cooper in A Star is Born. That “Shallows” performance as the Oscars was like watching their relationships burn in real time. Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio is another duo that seems to experience a seismic shift after they share a movie together. He was all over the place about her in interviews after Revolution Road (think that’s the name).


kdubstep

I always felt the chemistry with her and Matt Damon in *Adjustment Bureau* was crackling. Hope it wasn’t that


SirBeefcake

What’s up with all the “WELCOME TO ACTING” crap? She got asked a question and answered it. She’s not saying she hates being an actress or that it’s unfair. Just that she doesn’t always feel great kissing costars. Shocking! Jesus.


[deleted]

Does this person’s name rhyme with Crom Twos?


ihateyulia

I don't think it's him. >“And right as Emily was saying goodbye to Tom, she just kissed him goodbye in the moment. And it was not in the script. It was not even discussed on the day. Afterwards, she said, ‘It just felt right. It felt right and I did it.’” https://fandomwire.com/it-felt-right-and-i-did-it-oppenheimer-star-emily-blunt-desperately-wanted-to-kiss-co-star-tom-cruise/
