“I went through watching a bunch of movies and actually during that time I was watching movies that I grew up on, like Manhattan, Annie Hall, When Harry Met Sally. Like movies that I knew the ending [of], it was comforting, there was joy and so I thought well, I was reading a lot about couples coming together and falling apart and I was like, I think the threat of the world ending, let’s see a couple come together,” Katie said.

She also opened up about going back to work after being in lockdown.

“We shot a year after lockdown and the movie takes place during lockdown,” she said. “As actors, I think we all went through that moment of, are we ever going to work again? Are we ever going to be on set again? So, it was more about, oh my God, there’s tape, there’s a mark, we have lines. Wow we can do it again. So, it actually never gets easier, there’s always something to figure out. But it was definitely like thank you God for every moment.”
