The chemistry between actors Brett Goldstein and Imogen Poots in the new romantic drama All of You felt very natural for Goldstein.
"I thought she'd (Poots) be very serious because she's done so many serious films," the Ted Lasso actor told Reuters.
"But she was so funny and within five minutes we were, like, crying with laughter and I genuinely felt like I'd known her before," he said.
All of You arrives on Apple TV+ on Friday, 26 September.
It follows two best friends from college; Laura, played by Poots, and Simon, portrayed by Goldstein, who have an undeniable chemistry.
However, Laura takes a test that determines her soulmate is Lukas, played by Steven Cree, which creates tension in her relationship with Simon in the years that follow.
While her fictional character decided to take the soulmate test, Outer Range star Poots said she would avoid anything like it in real life.
"I would hope I would not, because I believe in finding it (love) naturally," she said.
"And I think that we're living in an age where everything is so controlled and everything sort of needs to be solved and fixed. I think that love is an ageless philosophical theme, and you should be open to it," she said.
The film has several jumps in time in which the two lead characters either grow apart or reunite to rekindle their steamy romance.
Despite the time spent on set, Poots and Goldstein also spent time together after the project ended.
"We then hung out even more, didn't we? Then we went to full hangout mode," Poots said.
