During the interview with LADbible, Matt Damon reflected on his kiss with Scarlett Johansson for their 2011 film, “We Bought a Zoo.” He jokingly asked the interviewer to imagine “how horrible it was” for him and said it was “hell!”
Damon explains how the kiss scene went south. He said, “What happened was, we had a shot before lunch and these two nice little shots ended with a kiss. And it was very good.” He and Johansson thought they were done with the scene and went to lunch, where the actor ate an onion sandwich.
However, when filming resumed, Damon and Johansson were informed they would have to reshoot the kiss scene. He said, “He (Johansson) came in, and Cameron Crowe (the film’s director) had set up the camera, and it was like a tight kiss shot. He goes, ‘Ah sh*t! I literally just ate an onion sandwich!’”
Damon revealed that he mocked Johansson throughout the scene, especially for her “onion breath”. However, the “Oppenheimer” star said it was all a joke and that her co-star’s breath actually “smelled like roses!”
