"In the clip, the two actors sit for what appears to be an engagement photo shoot. It seems like they hardly know each other-despite a very funny Zoe Winters insisting otherwise while trying to get them to pose-and uncomfortable around each other. The few glimpses of their eventual wedding seems to be disastrous, with Zendaya's character taking swigs of liquor straight from the bottle and Pattinson's leaving the event with a bloodied face."
"We had a scene together that was driving me crazy. I was desperately looking for its meaning, writing pages and pages of textual analysis, I ended up calling Zendaya the night before shooting the scene. I shared my doubts with her, I spoke for two hours, and after a while, very calmly, she made me understand that the line just said what it meant to say, that there was no hidden meaning. And there I was going crazy for three days."
Robert Pattinson and Zendaya play an engaged couple whose staged engagement photos reveal visible awkwardness and clear lack of chemistry. A photographer named Zoe Winters tries to coax poses while the pair remain uncomfortable. Brief wedding glimpses imply chaos: Zendaya's character drinks directly from a liquor bottle and Pattinson's character exits with a bloodied face. The filmmaker's prior work points toward a tonal shift into darker, surreal comedy. On-set interaction included Pattinson calling Zendaya to question a scene, and Zendaya advising that the line should be taken at face value. The film opens April 3.
