'To All the Boys I've Loved Before' Director Reveals Story Behind Lara Jean's Lock Screen

Did you notice that Lara Jean’s (Lana Condor) lock screen in Netflix’s To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before features a super cute moment between herself and Peter (Noah Centineo) that’s not shown in the movie? (If you missed it, it shows Lana napping on Noah‘s chest.)

Director Susan Johnson explains: “I can tell you. I don’t think this will blow any magic in telling you what happened with that,” she told ET. “That was actually one of our crew members who took that photo.”

“The two of them were in the green room on set at the high school location, in the area where we put the actors,” she continued. “They actually were sleeping on the couch in that room like that, so we just stood over them and took that picture and it’s so friggin’ cute.”

“So yeah, we just borrowed it from our crew member. (Laughs.),” Susan added. “There wasn’t [a scene]. I could make something up but I actually think it’s cute that they hang out like that.”

Another unplanned scene they decided to leave in the movie? “For instance, the moving the popcorn was totally Noah,” Susan revealed. “I didn’t ask him to do it. Kitty didn’t place it there every time, but she did that time and he was clever enough to figure out how to move it while throwing a pillow and leaning over, and I thought that was brilliant so we kept that take. The spin in the back pocket was also Noah. He did it in the rehearsal and I was like, ‘That is beautiful, we’re going to change the shot around!’ He’s a natural flirt so he knew what he was doing. The hot tub, it’s just their chemistry. There’s a little of Noah there and a little of Peter there.”
