“I feel bad”: Salma Hayek Feels Bad For Famous Actresses Who Have Not Kissed Samuel L. Jackson
Samuel L. Jackson is one of the most well-known actors of his generation. Over the years, the actor has been part of various films. He has starred in almost every genre of film. Jackson is well-known for his role in MCU. He plays Nick Fury in Marvel.
He started as an actor in 1972, playing parts in plays. The 74-year-old is one of the highest-earning actors in the industry. Despite being a leading man, the Secret Invasion actor hasn’t had too many on-screen love interests. He estimates that despite making well over 100 films, he has only had one or two on-screen kisses with the starring actresses. One of them includes Salma Hayek. The 56-year-old, in an interview, revealed kissing Samuel L. Jackson and how she feels bad for the actresses who haven’t got that chance.
Salma Hayek feels bad for actresses who missed locking lips with Samuel L. Jackson
Samuel L. Jackson is a leading man in the industry and has starred in over 100 films. His most successful and famous collaboration has been with director Quentin Tarantino. Despite that, the 74-year-old revealed he hadn’t kissed many women on screen.
Salma Hayek is perhaps a handful of actors who have locked lips with the Marvel actor. The two starred in The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard, and there was a romantic scene in it.
In an interview, while discussing the scene from the film, Jackson said,
“We had that conversation earlier today, when I told her she is one of maybe five women I have kissed in my cinematic history. It’s all fresh to me because I don’t do it that often, so it’s always kind of an experiment.”
Hayek, who has kissed many actors during her time in the spotlight, ranked her kiss with the Secret Invasion actor. She rated it best and felt it was a shame other actresses didn’t experience it. The 56-year-old said,
“I feel bad, because he’s such a good kisser. I feel bad for the best of the actresses that have been missing out. I feel bad but I feel honoured at the same time.”
She further revealed how she has kissed almost every actor she has worked with, but confessed her kiss with Samuel L. Jackson was one of the best.
Samuel L. Jackson and Salma Hayek starred together in The Hitman’s Bodyguard
In The Hitman’s Bodyguard and Samuel L. Jackson and Salma Hayek, both Marvel actors shared the screen. The film, which stars Ryan Reynolds as Michael, his bodyguard, and Jackson as Darius Kincaid, the titular hitman, does not initially sound like a great love tale until Hayek’s entry.
She plays Sonia, Darius’ yoga-practicing, foul-mouthed, and incarcerated wife, who is in prison and Darius is desperately trying to free her. The duo shares a passionate smooch on-screen for the film.
Samuel L. Jackson, who is married to LaTanya Richardson, hasn’t starred in many love stories. In a career spanning decades, the actor must have had a movie kiss only four to five times. He has kissed the 56-year-old on The Hitman’s Bodyguard, which came out in 2017, and a sequel, The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard, which came out in 2021.
