may 22, 2023 - Lively Improvises Kisses on Set

Description:

"Lively and Baldoni perform a scripted kissing scene in which their characters get
engaged at the hospital. In the sequence, Lively pulls Baldoni in to kiss her. It is clear Lively was
initiating the kissing: In one take, she pulls Baldoni in and kisses him once; in another, twice. Lively determined the number of kisses based on what she felt necessary for the scene. Though Lively improvised the number of kisses in this scene, make no mistake—the ‘kiss’ itself was written into the script and was in no way improvised. Contrary to Lively’s CRD Complaint, there was no inappropriate, improvised kissing on set. Any improvisation was made by Lively herself. "
