“There is a hilarious thing. I don’t even know if I should share this shit, but the final scene, they’re not even kissing,” Schulz said. “It’s CGI. Swear to God.”

“I’m there watching the wedding and I see them going to kiss. And their faces stop like that,” he said, “but in the movie, you can see their faces come together. And then you can see their faces kind of turn into a fake kiss.

Netflix did not immediately return a request for comment.
