Of all the F.R.I.E.N.D.S. cast members, Jennifer Aniston is arguably the most recognizable and renowned as compared to her co-stars. Fans recognize her for her iconic portrayal of Rachel Green in the show. Over the years, she has taken several different films in different genres, however, romcom tends to be the genre that she is most renowned for. Throughout her career, she has done several raunchy roles, and her on-screen smooches have only added to her popularity.
Jennifer Aniston is no stranger when it comes to kissing her co-stars, she has locked lips with her F.R.I.E.N.D.S. co-star, Adam Sandler thrice, and that happens to be the most memorable smooches of all time in the history of the show. However, when she was portraying the role of Rose O’Reilly, she felt extremely sorry as she had kissed her co-star Will Poulter, who was just a minor back then.
Jennifer Aniston Did Extensive Research On Kissing Minors
Jennifer Aniston and Will Poulter played the role of Rose O’Reilly and Kenny Rossman, a fake mom and son in We’re the Millers. The kiss was initiated when Rossman had a conversation with his pretend sister about how he had never kissed a girl before. Soon the two locked lips, while their pretend parents were in the RV, but upon realising what had happened, Aniston’s character gave him a kissing lesson of her own.
However, upon looking back, the Murder Mystery actress shared that she was extremely nervous when it came to kissing her co-star, who was just a minor back then. When she made an appearance on Conan, she shared how she felt that she was doing something highly illegal, and it felt “disturbing” to her because Poulter was underage.
“It’s so disturbing. He’s very young. He was underage. I thought, this is kind of illegal.”
When Conan O’Brien asked her if she broke the law, she replied “It was just a kiss. That’s not illegal.” Even though it was legal, Jennifer Aniston double-checked herself beforehand to make sure that she was not breaking the law, and she looked way deep into it.
“I looked way into it! Are you kidding?”
The scene was hilarious, as Poulter kissed Aniston and Emma Roberts while getting pointers from them. However, when the actor looks back at the scene, he shares how supportive the 54-year-old actress was the whole time.
Will Poulter Talks About His Kissing Scene With Jennifer Aniston
During an exclusive interview with Collider, Will Poulter recalls that it was Aniston who suggested that the scene would be hilarious if her character were also a part of the scene, and he mentioned how she made the scene look different. However, he felt that it was an absurd scene, and the co-stars who were involved were acting totally awkward.
“I think it was Jen who thought it would be funny if Rose joined in, which made all the difference in the sequence. It was kind of a bizarre scene to film, we kind of just laughed our way through it. It was a very awkward day for all involved.”
While one would think that the movie is full of such bizarre scenes, then they are totally mistaken, as this film is one of the most hilarious films out there with situational comedy. And even as a re-watch the movie remains full of hilarious and wholesome moments.
We’re the Millers can be rented on AppleTV.
