Video Summary
AI GeneratedThe cast of a new romantic comedy, including Sydney Sweeney and Glenn Powell, discuss their on-screen chemistry, the production of the film, and personal anecdotes. They share stories about their love for minivans, the challenges of filming in Australia—including encounters with sharks and spiders—and their personal \"red light confessions\" regarding dating and youth.
First of all, is it true that your favorite snack is?
Well, gummy bears.
Thank gosh, because it was a little bit of a test,
and I heard, is it true, Glenn, that you would get her gummy bears?
This is true. She doesn't drink caffeine.
She just eats gummy bears and just gets sugar highs throughout the day.
It's so funny, because I drink nothing but caffeine.
Glenn, what is your favorite snack?
Butterfinger.
Gosh, I'm so relieved.
Look at you. Best car ride I've ever been in.
So this is my minivan. It's only minivans and nothing else.
And is it true that you drove a Toyota Previa in 1990?
Not in 1990. A 1990 Toyota Previa.
Oh, understood.
I was two years old.
Did you lie to me about how old you were?
Very old. I should not be doing this rom-com.
I was going to say, that's a joke in the movie, and I don't get it,
because you guys seem like a perfect chemistry match.
And by the way, I did a movie with Hugh Grant,
and he was a few years older than me, and I never even bumped on it.
Age has nothing to do with who the person is.
It's life experience, and chemistry is chemistry,
so I don't care how old you both are. You're a perfect match.
Yes, I drove a 1990 Toyota Previa,
which was handed down to me from my mom.
They're my favorite minivan.
My ex-boyfriend, Eric Erlinson, from the band Hole,
drove a Toyota Previa in Seattle, and he took the middle seats out.
It was only the back bench, and that's where he put all his guitars,
and it was my favorite car in the entire world.
I did the same thing.
No!
Me and Eric, yeah.
Incredible producing job on this film, by the way.
Honestly, you as the leader of the team here,
the person that really developed this movie.
No, truly.
Sydney came up with the idea to make Much Ado About Nothing into a rom-com,
developed the script, brought me on board,
brought Will on board, and built this entire really impressive thing out.
There was really no box you don't check, Miss Sweeney.
Design, restoration of automobiles, best actress.
As someone who wanted to produce the films I was in
so that I would have a hand in having a seat at the table
to make sure I protected especially a director's vision,
what made you think that Will was the right person to direct this film?
I mean, Will has directed some iconic rom-coms
that Glenn and I both truly loved,
and we couldn't have imagined someone better to bring Bean Bin to life.
And what I love, too, saying about fighting for a director,
this movie was originally set in Italy, and Will fought for Australia,
and it's a character in the movie.
Some places are superfluous.
No, it was so perfect.
This was not.
So much so that, is it true, you guys had to wear ankle bracelets
to ward off sharks because Australia water is infested?
It's like the experiences that we get to have.
And no other job would we get to...
But sharks!
Well, the funny part is Sydney actually handles a live spider in this movie, right?
She pulls a spider out of my pants.
They have a spider wrangler on set.
So they literally have someone that takes the...
The spider's got a name, and they're soothing the spider.
It only can work for so many minutes at a time that it needs a break.
Of course.
But the problem is it gives you false sense of confidence that this thing is trained.
Yes.
And then it bites Sydney.
It did?
Yes.
No!
I'm like, oh, cool.
And he goes, yes, the spider will just stay there.
And was he like...
Oh, no.
Both things.
I had two marks right on my wrist.
We have a red light.
Confession.
Okay, you go first.
What's the worst place to meet someone for a date?
Oh, gosh.
What would be the worst place?
Worst place to meet someone on a date is where you take other dates.
That's a good one.
You want it to be special.
Just don't...
I wouldn't say have a consistent date spot.
I would say...
That's smart.
Make it unique.
I'll tell you where my worst one is.
Dinner.
Because more than not, you know before the appetizer you don't want to be there.
Totally.
And what's your red light confession?
What's the craziest thing you've done and gotten away with?
My first car my grandparents gave me was this old 1990 Volvo.
And it had a sunroof.
And my friends and I would go to Mulholland and car surf at night on Mulholland.
I used to do crazy things on Mulholland, too.
It's the best road.
It's the best feeling.
Here's to hot-dogging it on Mulholland.
Oh, yeah.
Hot-dogging a lady's hot on Mulholland.
Right?
Exactly.
