To celebrate the release of All Of Us Strangers, Paul Mescal and Andrew Scott took the costar test to see how well they really know each other! They opened up about their favorite memories from set, revealed the most famous people in their contacts, and tried to guess each other’s “Roman Empire.”

NYT interview with the two of them from Kyle Buchanan. A couple excerpts:
Andrew Scott on the physical intimacy in the film – There’s so much touching, whether that’s familial touching or a more sensual thing. People have talked an awful lot about the chemistry and the sex between our characters, but actually what I think is really radical and affecting about the relationship is how affectionate and tender they are with each other. It’s such a beautiful thing to play, isn’t it? Just real care.
Paul Mescal on doing comedy – I’m just a bit scared of comedy because I didn’t do a lot of it in drama school. Don’t think [I’ve got] a particularly funny disposition.
If you like either of these actors, would highly recommend watching this… it is a delight!
