A chance encounter leads to a quick make-out session in our exclusive deleted scene from the new comedyWhiskey Tango Foxtrot, which debuted on Digital HD earlier this week ahead of its Blu-ray, DVD and On Demand debut on June 28.

Based on real-life reporter Kim Barker’s revealing and funny memoir about covering the war beat in the Middle East,Whiskey Tango Foxtrotis a sharp and savvy film that critics are calling “boldly entertaining.” A satirical take on combat journalists and an illuminating story of self-discovery, the film follows Kim (Tina Fey) as she decides to shake things up by taking a dangerous assignment in Afghanistan.
