Alwyn, 32, and Mescal, 28, were both about to appear in adaptations of Irish author Sally Rooney’s novels. Mescal played Connell in 2020’s Normal People on Hulu. Two years later, Alwyn starred as Nick Conway in the streaming platform’s adaptation of Rooney’s Conversations With Friends. Scott, who appeared as The Priest on Fleabag between 2016 and 2019, had previously acted alongside Alwyn in 2022’s Catherine Called Birdy.
When Alwyn landed his Conversations With Friends role, Scott set him up with Mescal post–Normal People in a group chat.
