“I’m still so enamored with Nicole,” Zac told People. “There’s a part of me that pinches myself when I realize who I’m working with a lot. I think that was more pronounced during The Paperboy because I was a lot younger. I was very nervous back then.”
As for Nicole, she said their history of working together and previously playing lovers helped with more intimate scenes and their chemistry in A Family Affair.
“It’s really helpful when you’re doing this sort of work together that you’ve already got a history together, because it’s easy,” she said. “You’re not working to create a history. So I’m not like, ‘Can I touch you?’ I feel incredibly trusting of Zac.”
“We both feel safe, and we take care of each other,” Zac added.
