Emma Stone and Olivia Coleman needed to film a discreet love scene for this film. Coleman wanted to prank the younger actress in order to lighten the mood. Stone felt the nerves of a big scene, so Coleman had to surprise her. "I went to makeup and I got a sponge...a big, wet sponge," she said," I put it there as a barrier and told her not to worry about it. So when we were shooting, she was going up my leg and then went 'OH?! [in disgust]' and I was like "Oh no, it's a sponge!"
