On-Screen Kisses That Stirred Up More BTS Drama Than People Realize

The kiss between Jennifer Lawrence and Amy Adams in American Hustle certainly felt unexpected, and that’s because it was. Even the film’s director was surprised when the two actresses spontaneously shared an intimate moment on set.

Amy Adams revealed that she had planned the kiss and mentioned it to the director, but he wasn’t sure when it would happen or how it would unfold. The kiss occurs during a taut scene where their characters argue in a bathroom. Adams later praised Lawrence for fully committing to the moment and making the unscripted decision to add depth to their scene.
