Dax Shepard shared some surprising and humorous insights about his wife Kristen Bell's romantic role alongside Adam Brody, particularly regarding their kissing scenes. During the New Yorker Festival on Saturday, October 26, Shepard discussed Bell's on-screen chemistry with Brody in the Netflix romantic series, as per Dailymail.

When asked about their remarkable connection, he recounted a conversation he had with a friend while watching a kissing scene, saying, "My friend ... we watched that scene together, the kissing scene, which I'd argue is the very best kissing scene ever, ever put on film."

He went on to share, "My best friend Aaron, from childhood, asked me, 'Does she ever kiss you like that?'”

“No, I didn't even know she could kiss like that," Shepard replied.

This comes after Bell previously talked about her steamy scenes with Brody and her husband's enthusiastic reaction. She told E! News, "Even I can acknowledge watching it, like, ‘Whoa, that’s hot,’ My husband said the same thing. Like, watching the first episode he was like, ‘Oh my God, I want you to kiss him so badly.’” 

She elaborated, "I’m not trying to be reductive, but I think there’s a math to it. You have two actors that know how to stare deeply into each other’s eyes, and you have to have the confidence to expand that and really sit the anticipatory value before the kiss —which I think is really important."
