Piper Perabo Did Not Phone In Her Yellowstone Kiss With Kevin Costner – Looper

In a 2022 interview with TV Guide, Piper Perabo was asked about the kiss between herself and co-star Kevin Costner. She revealed that, even though their kiss was obscured by a hat, they still really kissed. “Like, have you ever seen actors pretend to drive a car, and you’re like that’s not really how you drive a car?” she said as an example. “It’s the same way with kissing. And I mean, Kevin Costner’s a pro.” In the scene, the two actors are clearly doing something more than simply holding their faces together, so it seems that Perabo is telling the truth.

In another interview with Variety, Perabo broke down the kiss a bit more. According to her, her main concern in the scene was keeping the same consistent tone that all episodes of “Yellowstone” have, but also producing a very special moment between these two characters. She also described the scene as being more idyllic than normal in “Yellowstone,” as the show doesn’t have a lot of moments when everything is calm. “When you watch that scene, it’s almost nostalgic even when it’s happening,” she explained. “There’s something about a summer night, when everything’s fine — It’s almost like a dream of ‘Yellowstone.'” Perhaps it was the nostalgia of that event that made so many fans excited about the characters sharing a kiss behind a cowboy hat.
