'Love Again' is the new Priyanka Chopra film in which she stars alongside Sam Heughan and Céline Dion. They are joined by Nick Jonas who shares a torrid scene with his wife where the actor licks her face.
There are many examples of movies where a real-life couple has shared the screen, such as Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck during their first stage together, John Krasinski and Emily Blunt, or Elsa Pataki and Chris Hemsworth. Thus, the presence of both can help represent the relationship of their characters on the screen.
But there are other occasions in which these encounters occur as a mere wink, as has happened with the new Priyanka Chopra film, 'Love Again'.
This rom-com in which she stars alongside Sam Heughan and Céline Dion also featured the presence of her husband, Nick Jonas, who volunteered to film a most sticky scene for the Indian-born actress.
As revealed to People, the filming of the film took place during the covid pandemic, so the 40-year-old interpreter was not attracted to the idea of someone licking her face, as stipulated by the script in a scene.
For this reason, she asked little Jonas if he could do it himself instead of another unknown person: "He was very considerate."
"He came on set and it was a lot of fun. I was completely unprofessional that day because he was really taking the jerk thing to heart and practicing with it," she confessed. "I was embarrassed. It was a puddle: I was laughing. Everyone was laughing. At one point, the crew laughed so hard during a take that we had to reshoot it because it was so funny," recalled the 'Citadel' actress.
In addition, the interpreter assured that she does not remember the times they repeated the shot: "We did three or four."
