That Pizza Scene Was the Opposite of Romantic to Film
Set It Up's most pivotal and talked-about scene is Charlie and Harper's journey to find pizza after a day of drinking and dancing, with the night ending on Charlie's floor, silently eating slices before the moment. You know, where they catch each other's eyes and everything changes all at once. He knows it. She knows it. We know it. The cast and crew, however, did not.
"I don't want to burst any bubbles, but the amount of pizza that was had was so disgusting," Scanlon said, only slightly bursting our bubble. "Nobody was hot for anybody in that moment, it was disgusting."
In fact, Deutch ate so much pizza that she threw up. "It's just freakin' Zoey. I'd be like, 'Don't eat! There's a spit bucket! Just spit it out!' She was like, 'No, I have to!' I was like, ‘This isn't a method scene. You do not have to eat the pizza!'"
