In love on AND off-camera!
Paris Berelc — who plays Alexa, an energetic teen diagnosed with cancer, in Netflix’s newest original teen dramedy “Alexa & Katie” — recently opened up about what it’s really like to work with in real life boyfriend Jack Griffo (who plays Dylan) on set. The former Disney Channel and Nickelodeon actors have been dating since last summer and both coincidentally landed roles on the new binge-worthy series!
Paris even revealed that in the end of the auditioning process, the casting team was deciding between Jack and one other actor, but ultimately decided her chemistry with Jack was stronger! She also dished on filming in front of a live audience, her all-time favorite Netflix series and more. Check it out:
“Me and him always said that Alexa and his character, Dylan, they’re like the 14 and 16-year-old version of us. It’s cool to go back into that headspace of ‘I’m 14 and this is a new crush and I don’t have the adult thoughts that I have now’. But because I am so comfortable with him, we would be on set and they would be like, ‘alright, you have to be not so comfortable with him’…I had never done anything like that before and Jack made it really fun for me!”
In case you missed it, these are all the times Paris and Jack were totally couple goals!
