The make-out sequence with Fat Amy and Bumper had to be cut down because they noticed, after filming it, that Rebel Wilson’s pants were actually a bit see-thru and you could see her underwear through them.Being two improvisers, they we would just make up little stuff between them to try to get it in the movie, which then developed into Kay Cannon (the screenwriter) writing the love storyline for the second movie. In the first movie, there was never any subplot that something was going on between Fat Amy (Rebel Wilson) and Bumper (Adam Devine).
