Why Is There No Kissing in Twisters? Ask Spielberg

However, the white t-shirt wasn't enough to distract from the major talking point out of Twisters' opening weekend: where was the kissing?

Audiences were on tenterhooks throughout the film, waiting for the sizzling chemistry between Glen Powell and Daisy Edgar-Jones to manifest in a kiss. However, the credits rolled without Tyler and Kate sharing so much as a peck.

"It stops the film from ever sinking into cliche," Daisy Edgar-Jones said in an interview, "They've gotta go chase, there's another storm on the way".

Powell wouldn't have objected to kissing, however. "I raised my hand, and she said no," Powell said. "There's always time for kissing," he continued.

What sent fans even deeper into a spiral was that there's documented evidence that a kiss was on the cards.

A video uploaded by @sydglenx on X (formerly known as Twitter) shows that Lee Isaac Chung did film a kiss between Tyler and Kate for his ending, even if the final product doesn't choose to use it.

So why did the kiss not make it in? You'll have to ask Steven Spielberg.

In an interview with Collider, Daisy Edgar-Jones said, "I think it was a Spielberg note, wasn't it?"

Powell added to the conversation, saying, "I also think that this movie is not about them finding love. It's returning Kate to the thing that she loves, which is storm chasing".

"I feel like a kiss would be unrepresentative of the right goal," Powell said, "It's a good Spielberg note. It's why Spielberg... y'know, that kid's still in this game."

Spielberg served as executive producer on the film, and it appears it was his suggestion that the film end the way that it did.

So for @djmecca on X, who suggested "an investigation into what happened here", you'll have to ask Spielberg what's up.
