Then, the rom-com classic of the year came out The Wedding Planner.
Lopez was quick to remember the excitement surrounding their budding careers and their on-screen chemistry.
“I so enjoyed working with you,” Lopez said.
“We had such a nice rapport and chemistry.
We were somewhat at the beginning of our careers at that time.
It was exciting to be working on any movie.”
After Lopez dubbed the filming experience “magical”, McConaughey sang his costar’s praises.
“You prepare so well for everything you do.
I love your intentionality, I love how deliberate you are.”
To this day, many remember the iconic kiss that sent people swooning.
Apparently, the experience was similar for the actors.
Glamourreports that Lopez asked her co-star during the Instagram session about their time filming the more intimate scenes.
“Do you remember doing that scene where you were about to kiss me?
And I remember you saying to me, I don’t know if you remember this.
You said, ‘Ms.
Lopez, I’m going to kiss you now.’
And I was like, ‘Okay, let’s do it.
Let’s kiss.’
I remember that clearly.”
Always the gentleman we imagine him to be, McConaughey doesn’t disappoint when it comes to being polite!
So, that connection we saw on screen definitely translated to behind-the-scenes as well.
It was just so real," she said with a big laugh (viaABC).
