The Surprising Truth Behind Hollywood's Most Iconic On-Screen Kisses

Fast forward a few seasons and it was time for Margulies to depart from the show as well. The writers decided to do something big for her departure and bring Clooney back for one big scene... their kiss. Fans were ecstatic to see it come to fruition!

Lost in Translation

Lost in Translation tells the story of an old Hollywood actor named Bob Harris (Bill Murray) and a young college graduate named Charlotte (Scarlett Johansson) who is just trying to find her way. The two develop a friendship while visiting Tokyo, and they say goodbye in an unexpected way.

Johansson had no idea that Murray was going to kiss her. Murray didn't even really plan on kissing her, but he said that it felt right in the moment. It was a quick peck, nothing crazy, but director Sofia Coppola loved it. She was able to keep it in since Johansson's honest reaction fit perfectly with the scene. 

The Office

A good amount of The Office is improvised, and this kiss sure was. Oscar Martinez (Oscar Nuñez) and Michael Scott (Steve Carell) had a particularly hilarious moment when Michael is trying to prove how cool he is with Oscar after Oscar came out as gay. In true Michael Scott fashion, it was cringe and hilarious.
