AHN: I loved working onFire Island, but it was just, like, boys, right?

And so many boys.

And so then you have these two queer couples, and then, What if they were friends?

It just felt authentic to me.

AHN: Getting to work with Bowen onFire Islandwas such a joy.

It was our first time meeting and working together, and I wanted to do it again.

I just saw in Bowen this incredible facility for both comedy and drama and thisreal understanding of millennial indecision.

I felt like he was part of my generation in this very organic way.

And then Lily, I’ve seen her in interviews, and she’s such a goofball.

Its so fun to see.

AHN: Oh, amazing!

It’s very exciting to see you thrive in this capacity.

So I find them so important, especially now in today’s political climate.

That’s very beautifully said.

My final question is, I love that this movie feels like such a classic rom-com.

But yeah, I think that one if you pull it off?
