You know what, I gotta be honest, man it is [like we’re BFFs]. We have a great relationship onscreen, offscreen. Things like this just don’t happen, right? It’s something you definitely have to realize how special it is. It doesn’t have to be this way.

You typically don’t have the relationships onscreen and off at this magnitude. I love the fact that we get along. I love that we respond to the material that’s been presented to us. I love that we’re still finding ways to be creative.
