In a recent entertaining chat, Margot Robbie disclosed a surprising secret regarding kissing scenes in movies.
During the conversation, Daniel Kaluuya expressed his shock at not being aware of a specific protocol for such scenes.
Kaluuya humorously revealed his ignorance about the unwritten rule of refraining from using tongue during on-screen kisses.
His candid confession elicited laughter from Robbie, Allison Janney, and Alicia Vikander, who found his lack of knowledge amusing.
Amid the chuckles, Kaluuya admitted his misconception of thinking that using tongue was a way to make the scenes more authentic.
However, he learned the correct etiquette, which involves not engaging in such gestures unless there is genuine romantic interest.
Robbie, after regaining her composure, shared her relief at receiving advice early in her career about the no-tongue rule.
She expressed gratitude for being informed before potentially making a faux pas by inadvertently using tongue while kissing co-stars.
Reflecting on her experience, Robbie emphasized the importance of adhering to this guideline and even passing it on to others in the industry.
She highlighted the necessity of maintaining professionalism and respecting boundaries during intimate scenes.
During the discussion, Graham Norton raised a valid point about the lack of guidance provided to actors regarding such nuances in acting.
Kaluuya, echoing Norton’s sentiment, humorously lamented discovering the rule belatedly, jokingly referring to his past interactions as based on false premises.
Moreover, the group touched upon cultural differences in approaching kissing scenes, noting the practice of distributing breath mints before filming in America, contrasting with the absence of such customs in the UK and Australia.
Robbie humorously commented on the germaphobic tendencies prevalent in the American film industry.
