00:00 I had to kiss Scarlett Johansson.
00:02 I mean, come on.
00:03 Can you imagine how horrible that was for me?
00:05 Can you imagine how awful that was?
00:06 What?
00:07 It's such a shame she has such terrible lips and everything.
00:09 Matt Damon is getting honest about an on-screen kiss
00:12 he shared with Scarlett Johansson.
00:15 While playing agree to disagree for Ladd Bible
00:17 with Emily Blunt, the Oppenheimer star hilariously
00:20 recounted the moment he had with the Black Widow actress
00:23 while they were filming together and joked
00:26 that it wasn't pleasant.
00:28 It was hell.
00:28 OK, first of all--
00:31 She was mean.
00:32 And then--
00:33 No, what happened was we did a shot before lunch.
00:35 And it was like this nice little two shot
00:37 that ended in the kiss.
00:39 And it was really good.
00:40 And we went to lunch.
00:42 And she and I both thought it was over.
00:43 And she had some garlic sandwich?
00:44 She ate like an onion sandwich for lunch.
00:46 Good for her teeth.
00:47 And she came in and Cameron Crowe had set the camera up.
00:50 And it was like a tight shot of the kiss.
00:52 And she goes, oh, [BLEEP]
00:55 I literally just had--
00:56 I had like an onion sandwich.
00:58 I thought we did this.
00:59 But were you still sort of slightly aroused getting
01:01 to do that with her or not?
01:03 No, I was making fun of her the entire time
01:05 about her onion breath, which I didn't even smell.
01:07 He later clarified that his "We Bought a Zoo" co-star wasn't
01:10 to blame for the incident.
01:12 Perfect.
01:13 Because her breath smells like roses.
01:16 While playing the game, Emily and Matt
01:18 also faced off on whether or not they
01:20 agree that the other actor is a joy to work with.
01:24 If you-- I thought you were going to go--
01:26 Really [BLEEP] one, though.
01:28 No, I beat you to that one.
01:29 That way--
01:30 I know, because I was--
01:31 I was like, is he going to do a jokey one?
01:33 OK.
01:33 Strongly agree.
01:34 I've worked with Matt.
01:34 I don't joke about that, Emily.
01:35 I don't joke.
01:36 I love you.
01:37 [LAUGHTER]
01:40 Have you ever said--
01:41 I [BLEEP] love you.
01:42 I [BLEEP] love you.
01:43 So [BLEEP] there.
01:44 Done.
01:45 Strongly agree.
01:46 Access Hollywood spoke to the pals earlier this month.
01:49 And they revealed just how close of friends they really are.
01:52 Did you meet on the adjustment bureau?
01:54 Yes, we did.
01:55 Yes, we did.
01:56 [LAUGHTER]
01:59 Sometimes we just see each other across the street
02:00 and we go like that.
02:01 [LAUGHTER]
02:03 That's like what fans want to hear.
02:05 So thank you for saying that.
02:07 Oh, yeah.
02:07 It's actually kind of clamoring for adjustment bureau, too.
02:10 You know, just crying out for it.
02:12 Stop it.
02:13 I enjoyed that film very much so.
02:15 So in the sequel, I'm going to be wearing the fedora,
02:17 and he's going to be dancing.
02:19 It's going to be great.
02:20 Well, we can't wait for it.
02:21 Oh, it's going to be huge.
02:22 Do you remember your first impressions
02:24 of each other back then?
02:25 He was so nice to me.
02:25 I auditioned for it.
02:27 And I know he'd seen like four other chicks that day.
02:29 And he was so lovely and fun.
02:33 And we improv'd a lot, and it was really cool.
02:35 Yeah, you just came in and slaughtered the audition.
02:37 Don't say that.
02:38 It's important though.
02:39 You crushed.
02:39 No, everybody did.
02:40 They were all excellent.
02:42 But you were just definitely the reason to make the movie.
02:47 Aw.
02:48 And now, do you double date?
02:50 Are you asking for milk from each other?
02:52 We literally do.
02:53 We literally ask for milk.
02:55 Or tequila.
02:56 Or tequila.
02:57 Or tequila.
02:57 My preference.
02:58 So I love that.
02:58 There was actually a funny story,
03:00 because when Chris came to talk to me about the movie,
03:04 he bumped into John in the lobby.
03:07 And he already knew that he was going to go to Emily.
03:10 But he didn't want to do it on the same day,
03:13 because he didn't want it to seem like he was going
03:15 to just one apartment building to cast his movie.
03:19 He just thought it would be offensive to me
03:21 if it seemed like convenient casting.
03:23 He was like, oh, while I'm here.
03:25 This is so funny.
03:26 Yeah.
03:27 But he knew the cast that he wanted,
03:29 but he didn't want to--
03:30 Everyone in the elevator.
03:31 Come on.
03:32 We're going to Los Alamos.
03:33 We're going to go knock on doors and cast
03:35 the rest of this movie.
