Will Gluck cut 'so much' nudity from One Night Only after test audiences reacted badly

Director Will Gluck cut "so much" nudity from his new romantic comedy One Night Only, saying modern audiences feel uncomfortable seeing it in theaters. He cited a societal shift away from public displays of mature content. Gluck told Variety that data on Gen Z and Gen Alpha preferences influenced the decision, but he believes the change is broader. After test screenings, he removed scenes of nudity filmed on New York streets because audiences reacted physically, turning to companions, which outweighed any benefits. The film stars Monica Barbaro and Callum Turner in an alternate reality where premarital sex is banned except for one 12-hour period annually. Gluck previously directed Easy A and Anyone But You.
