Everyone has their fair share of embarrassing or awkward moments and celebrities are no exception either. Many bizarre moments and awkward interactions can be seen at award shows or premieres. Whether it’s Jerry Seinfeld rejecting Kesha’s embrace, Amy Schumer falling near Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, Jennifer Lawrence stumbling at the Oscars, Gary Busey kissing Jennifer Garner’s neck, or Bjork wearing a swan dress at the Oscars, and so on. others. Another incident that can be added to this list is Oscar Isaac and Jessica Chastain’s viral red carpet moment in 2021.
Oscar Isaac and Jessica Chastain’s strange red carpet PDA
Oscar Isaac opened up about his viral red carpet moment with Jessica Chastain which performed during the 2021 Venice Film Festival. At the event, Isaac and Chastain, while posing for the cameras, had a hug goofy and affectionate who at one point looked like Isaac was kissing or sniffing (we don’t know) Chastain’s upper arm. As the moment was shown in slow motion, some fans named it after a sexy interaction.

To clear things up, Isaac explained his side of the story, but it seems his explanation is just as bizarre as the moment itself as he compared himself and Chastain to “flatworms.”
On Jess Cagle Show, Oscar Isaac said:
“You can cut them into a hundred pieces and they’ll grow a whole new worm out of the little piece,”
He said the way these worms communicate at the cellular level and decide what to do, speaking through a “electro kind of magnetic situation”.
“The cells kind of talk to each other through electricity and kind of decide, ‘Okay, you’re going to sulk. “Okay, I’ll go in line”, “that’s how Jessica and I talk to each other. We are like little flatworms.

Jessica Chastain came to the rescue and tried to explain more clearly. She talked about how the two had been friends since college and how funny the moment was when seen at normal speed because everything looked sexy in slow motion.
“We play, but also Oscar and I have been friends – we went to college together – so we’ve been friends more than half our lives, and we know so much about each other,”
“Let me say, though, it’s a slow motion video, and everyone is super sexy in slow motion, I think it was really funny because when you watch it at normal speed, I’m looking straight ahead and he’s looking down at me. He’s just going to give me a kiss on the elbow, and at the same time, I’m going to give him a hug. Then all of a sudden, his face is under my armpit.

Both Oscar Isaac and Jessica Chastain are acclaimed actors. While Isaac has won several awards for his performances, Chastain isn’t behind either and has two Oscar nominations. Both won the Golden Globe Awards.
As Chastain said, they’ve both known each other since college and that’s why they both have great chemistry. They starred in a few projects together. One of them was A most violent year(2014). In 2021, they were together again as the main roles in the drama miniseries Scenes from a wedding. The show is an adaptation of the Swedish series of the same name from the 1970s.
Well, we’d love to see more of this “flatworm” couple together in the future.
