Similar to their onscreen counterparts in TASM, Emma Stone and Andrew Garfield started dating in real life, which lasted for 4 years, before the two decided to take a break, following strict work schedules. And while fans have long cried for a reunion between the two, the Poor Things Star did reunite with her other ex, Kieran Culkin, whom she dated prior to meeting Garfield.
While little is known about the two’s relationship, which lasted from 2010-11 after they initially crossed paths on the set of Paper Man, Culkin has nothing but nice to say about the Poor Things Star.
Kieran Culkin on Reuniting With Emma Stone on A Real Pain
Emma Stone and Kieran Culkin have maintained a friendly bond since their separation back in ’11, as they even joined forces for the 2013 anthology flick Movie 43. And over a decade after the anthology flick, the Golden Globe winners once again reunited forces the comedy-drama, A Real Pain, in which Stone serves as a producer. Stressing how great of a person the Poor Things Star is, The Succession Star explained that entering the project, which is directed by Jesse Eisenberg, with a former colleague made the process easier for him.
He said (via E! News):
“She’s great. She’s a really wonderful person.” He continued, “It’s nice because you go into a job and most of the time you don’t really know anybody.But in this case, going in, I’m like, ‘Oh, OK, well at least that part’s taken care of.'”
Although Kieran Culkin’s recent statements did lead to some speculating about a rekindling of the duo’s romance, this certainly isn’t the case per the Succession Star’s previous interview.
Kieran Culkin and Emma Stone Are Strictly Good Friends
Since parting ways back in 2011, both Emma Stone and Kieran Culkin went on to find love in their respective partners, with whom they tied the knot. In a previous interview, Culkin expressed that referring to Stone as an “ex” is funny, as he and his wife of 12 years, Jazz Charton, have become great friends with the TASM Star, who has been married to Dave McCary since 2020.
“It’s funny to even say ‘ex.’ To me, she’s just a really good friend of mine and my wife’s. She’s lovely and great.”
As for Andrew Garfield, rumors have emerged claiming that the Oscar-nominated actor may have entered into a relationship with model Olivia Brower. But while neither party has spoken up about the matter, a recent sighting of the two together further fueled the rumors.
