How Jennifer Aniston Felt About Her On-Screen Kiss With Will Poulter

In the 2013 movie “We’re the Millers,” Aniston, then 44, played a stripper, Rose, who was hired to be the matriarch of a “fake” marijuana-smuggling family. Her faux son, Kenny, was played by actor Will Poulter, who was 19 at the time of filming. In one memorable scene, Aniston’s character taught her much younger movie “son” how to kiss. 

Aniston was razzed about the kissing scene during a 2013 appearance on Conan O’Brien’s talk show, per Us Weekly. After the late-night host called the kiss “disturbing,” he asked Aniston if it was even legal, joking that his young age could have been a crime. “It was just a kiss. That’s not illegal,” Aniston replied. But the Emmy-winning star admitted that she did some research on the legalities before filming the scene. “I looked way into it! Are you kidding?” she said.

In an interview with Collider, “We’re the Millers” director Rawson M. Thurber revealed that the original script called for Poulter to only kiss co-star Emma Roberts, who was only two years older than him and played his fake sister in the flick. “I think it was Jen who thought it would be funny if Rose joined in, which made all the difference in the sequence,” Thurber said. Oddly enough, the unlikely liplock received enough buzz to score a win an MTV Movie Award win for best kiss, per The Los Angeles Times.
