'Twisters' fans are upset after a clip of Glen Powell and Daisy Edgar-Jones kissing on set leaked but wasn't in the movie

• Glen Powell and Daisy Edgar-Jones star as storm chasers who try to stop tornadoes in "Twisters."
• The pair have fun romantic chemistry in the sequel and a clip of them kissing on the set leaked online.
• Fans feel robbed because the kiss was cut from the movie.

Fans are upset after a clip of Glen Powell and Daisy Edgar-Jones kissing in "Twisters" that leaked online didn't end up in the final cut.

Powell and Edgar-Jones play storm chasers Tyler Owens and Kate Cooper as they try to find a way to stop tornadoes from wreaking havoc on Oklahoma.

Aside from the impressive spectacle of the devastating storms and tornadoes in "Twisters," Powell and Edgar-Jones carry the film with their romantic chemistry, as Owens and Cooper bond over their passion for meteorology.

After showing the citizens of a small town being saved from a tornado, director Lee Isaac Chung sets up a stereotypical Hollywood ending when Owens races through an airport to tell Cooper how he feels about her.

The tension between them is palpable, the music swells, and it feels like after nearly two hours of pining for one another the pair will finally kiss.

Think the ending of "Friends" but with bad weather.

But just when you think the kiss is about to happen, an airport announcement cuts the tension and says that all flights have been grounded because of the weather. Instead of finally embracing, Owens and Cooper leave the airport together hand-in-hand.

Sure, their relationship is implied. But come on, Hollywood, let us see the hot people kiss!

Fans were predictably upset, and that frustration was heightened by the clip of the pair's passionate airport kiss emerging online before the film was released.

The scene, which does not appear in the film, shows Powell walking up to Edgar-Jones, and they passionately kiss in a way that would fit right in with some of Powell's previous crowdpleasers: "Top Gun: Maverick," and " Anyone But You ."

It's not clear whether the moment was filmed by an extra, a bystander, or a member of the crew. But one thing's for certain, fans think "Twisters" missed a trick by not including it.

Neither of the stars nor Chung have explained why the film cut the kiss scene. But playing the airport moment for a comedic beat instead of a romantic one seems like a very deliberate choice.

It could be to keep the ending in line with the other moments of humor scattered throughout the adventure, like when journalist Ben (Harry Hadden-Paton) vomits after his first storm chaser ride.

A dose of comedy also ensures the film appeals to a broad audience. Moviegoers who want to see a fun blockbuster about tornadoes might not care for a romantic storyline. And by subverting the expectations surrounding the kiss, Chung plays it safe with humor.

But considering "Twisters" is meant to be one of the biggest blockbusters of the summer, a little stereotypical romance wouldn't go amiss.
