We always hear stories of stars meeting their lovers on-set, but rarely do we see friendships bloom when the cameras stop rolling. That’s apparently what happened with Jennifer Garner and Judy Greer, who met during the acting and dance rehearsals for “13 Going On 30,” and have been the best of friends ever since.
“Meeting her was a treat,” Greer said of her first ever interaction with Garner (via Insider). “Who can ever say enough about her? She’s literally like what everyone says, like the greatest of all time.” She went on to sing praises about her co-star, gushing at how she’s a dream to work with. “She was just a really great leader. She never complained. She was never late to work. She was professional, but she was also crazy fun and, obviously, so talented,” Greer continued. “When you have someone like that as No. 1 on the call sheet, you really can’t complain about anything. Like, you’re an a**hole if you do.”
In an interview with Stellar, Greer said that she and Garner were probably meant to be friends, and she has the film to thank for it. “That movie had a little magic dust sprinkled on it. We really lucked out,” she shared (via theDaily Mail). “We loved that movie, and it did bring us together, but I like to think that we were meant to be friends and would have found each other somehow.”
