Well, it wasn’t by choice, but Leonardo DiCaprio did have to kiss a guy while filming his new movie J. Edgar. The costar he had to kiss, Armie Hammer, recently opened up about the experience. He said they both had to pretend they knew what they were doing when it came time for the kissing scenes.

“It’s the same kind of thing as if you walk onto a set and they hand you a machine gun and [say], ‘Shoot this like you know what you’re doing’ – you can’t grab that thing and go, ‘uh…’ – you kind of have to go, ‘Okay, I know what I’m doing,’ and you’ve just got to go for it.”

Hammer ended up thinking that the experience ”wasn’t that weird,” but still not something he’d choose to do in his private life. He does think it’s amusing that there’s so much “hype” surrounding kissing scenes like these in the movies.

And what about the relationship between the stars after filming together? Hammer insists that there is always “a special relationship with someone when you finish a movie with them,” but he and DiCaprio have still moved onto other projects. They’re busy working and “didn’t start a book club together or anything.”
