Zoë Saldaña and Bradley Cooper’s undeniable on-camera chemistry was the saving grace of the romantic drama, “The Words.” Although the production team worked in odd conditions — including minimal funding and a quick filming timeline — Saldaña and Cooper overcame them with their obvious bond, producer Tatiana Kelly told The Hollywood Reporter. Kelly explained: “Everybody was kind of thrown into this because it’s a 25-day shoot … It is such an intense pressurized situation. We were so thankful that everybody across the board was able to have that kind of chemistry. I think it’s so believable.”
Saldaña also opened up with The Hollywood Reporter about why she thinks chemistry between actors is so crucial in a romantic narrative. “I’ve always said that when you watch movies and a love story falls short of what you wanted it to be, as an actor, as a person who works in films, you know that 90% of the time it didn’t work is because there was no chemistry, they didn’t work out a friendship, they didn’t feel safe around each other, they weren’t communicating properly.”
