"As soon as I walked in the room, I don't remember exactly what happened, but something funny happened and we all just started cracking up laughing."The Australian actor continued: "It was like meeting an old friend. It was like Emma and I had been old friends for a long time."Their natural connection helped them with their performances in the film, Bracey explained."There was such an ease to it," he said.

Joe: Retaliation" actor said they'd end up spending 12 to 14 hours together per day while filming the movie in Atlanta. "For those days at work to be just us laughing on-camera and off-camera, it was a blessing," he told Insider. Bracey continued, "There are so many times where we're just cracking up before the cameras are rolling. I'm sure there are plenty of outtakes of us just being absolute fools and laughing our heads off."The cast also includes stars like Kristin Chenoweth, Jessica Capshaw, Jake Manley, Frances Fisher, and Alex Moffat. According to Bracey, the group had a "lovely dynamic.""We were all having so much fun. And I think that shows in the film," he said. "If there's life when the cameras are off, that pulse comes through.""Holidate" is Bracey's first time appearing in a romantic comedy, which he told Insider was a brand new "challenge" for him. "I never really tried a rom-com, and everyone loves a rom-com," he said. "It'll be exciting to be part of one and to challenge myself that way."The actor said that he hopes viewers can have as much fun watching the movie as the cast had making it."I hope they have a lovely couple of hours off from whatever they're doing at the moment," he said, adding that it's particularly important for people to take time to relax during the pandemic."When you can't go on holiday and moments like this with the pandemic, I think it's really, really lovely that we can sit and laugh and think of our loved ones and think of the close relationships we have," Bracey said. "Holidate" is now available to stream on Netflix.

'Holidate' star Luke Bracey says it was like 'meeting an old friend' when he first read lines with costar Emma Roberts

"Emma and John and I, the director, we kind of looked towards 'When Harry Met Sally...,'" Bracey told Insider. "That's a great feat, you know?"In the 2020 movie, two single strangers named Jackson (Bracey) and Sloane (Roberts) agree to accompany each other as plus-ones to holiday celebrations with no strings attached. That way, Sloane dodges criticism from her family for not being in a committed relationship, and Jackson has a place to celebrate since his family lives in Australia. Like Harry (Billy Crystal) and Sally (Meg Ryan), the characters' friendship serves as the foundation for a budding romance, and they develop feelings for each other along the way. Though Harry and Sally's relationship turns romantic at the end of the movie, they spend the majority of the film as well-acquainted friends. "They're just friends in that one for a lot of it. We wanted to capture that kind of idea of friendship becoming something," Bracey explained.He added that "all great romantic relationships," like those in "When Harry Met Sally..." and "Holidate," begin with "honesty and friendship and being your true self without the worry of romance."<div type="image" title="holidate" height="2678" width="4018" msid="78838152" hostid="261"></div>The Australian actor is known for his roles in films like "Monte Carlo" and "G.I. Joe: Retaliation." He also recently appeared on the first season of Hulu's "Little Fires Everywhere.""Holidate" is his first romantic comedy, and Bracey told Insider that he was eager to take on a new "challenge." When he read the script, written by Tiffany Paulsen, Bracey said he knew that the Netflix film was the right segue into the genre. "I read the script and I just laughed out loud, and that does not happen often, especially when you're just reading one," he said. "I was just laughing and laughing and laughing."Bracey said he felt "fortunate" that Whitesell chose him to play Jackson, who's also a fellow Australian living in America.The actor, who <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-8788345/How-Australian-actor-Luke-Bracey-Hollywoods-HOTTEST-new-hunk.html">moved to the United States when he was 20 years old to pursue acting</a>, told Insider that he immediately related to the character since he puts himself out there and meets different people."I really admire that part of Jackson, his ability to be honest and open, which can be really hard," he said.Bracey continued: "There's also been times where, you know, I've kind of felt out of place and felt very isolated in wherever I've been, but then that kind of idea of like, just put yourself out there and be open to things and say yes and go forward and meet new people that offer you something different that you don't know.""Holidate" premieres on Netflix on October 28.

But after a year of spending festive moments together, the two find that that they might have something more than just a friendship.While "Holidate" may have some <a href="https://www.insider.com/holidate-when-harry-met-sally-luke-bracey-inspiration-interview-2020-10">subtle nods to classic films of the same genre, like "When Harry Met Sally,"</a> Sloane isn't the predictable rom-com subject — and that's reflected in her sometimes-quirky and nostalgic sense of <keyword id="7" type="CITY" weightage="100" keywordseo="style">style</keyword>, as brought to life by costume designer Helen Huang."Sloane is the type of character who might have a really great vintage T-shirt collection or a cool 1960s leopard coat, but she would still lounge around the house in her high school sweats," Huang said.<div type="image" title="holidate fashion netflix" height="885" width="1180" msid="79031304" hostid="261"></div><h2>Huang found one-of-a-kind, secondhand pieces for Roberts to wear — and sprinkled in an homage to the early 2000s</h2>Huang told Insider that the majority of Sloane's wardrobe in the movie consisted of items that were thrifted or vintage pieces that were rented from costume warehouses in Los Angeles, as opposed to new, straight-from-the-rack garments."I would bring [Roberts] these little pieces that I found from all around," Huang said.For example, when the cast and crew filmed in Atlanta, Huang found a top for Roberts to wear while she was scouring a local craft market in the city. Huang also rented all of Roberts' jewelry from different costume houses, which she said helped give her character depth.<div type="image" title="holidate netflix" height="1333" width="1778" msid="79031306" hostid="261"></div>"I didn't want people to be able to tell immediately where she got all of her stuff, and I think that's what makes Sloane so special. She's not the type of character to wear a one-brand, head-to-toe look," Huang said.One of Huang's favorite looks from "Holidate" was Sloane's Valentine's Day outfit, which included a Juicy Couture sweat suit and an animal-print coat. "[Roberts] actually had a pair of Juicy Couture pants from the early 2000s, so we took inspiration from that," Huang said.<div type="image" title="emma roberts netflix holidate" height="1289" width="1719" msid="79031309" hostid="261"></div>Huang also looked to resale and designer discount websites to find unique pieces for the movie — like a Moschino shrug-style cardigan with floral patches that she said she discovered while scouring <a href="https://www.theoutnet.com/en-us/">The Outnet.</a> Roberts wore the top for the movie's Thanksgiving scene, and it appeared to be sold out at Neiman Marcus at the time of writing."I was scrolling and trying to look for something special, and I found this Moschino sweater," Huang said. "I thought: 'It could either be really good or really bad,' but I love that line. It ended up being perfect on [Roberts]."<div type="image" title="holidate emma roberts kristin chenoweth" height="1333" width="1777" msid="79031312" hostid="261"></div><h2>Sloane doesn't alter her style just because she's met a potential romantic partner </h2>Huang said that she hopes viewers can see themselves in Sloane, as well as her style."I wanted to emphasize that Sloane is not like every other rom-com girl — where she's sad and then she's happy, and she has two totally different wardrobes for each — because I feel like that's not a real representation of women," Huang said. "Sloane has one closet," Huang continued. "It's not like she went out and bought a whole new wardrobe because she met Jackson, and that was important to me."Huang kept this sentiment at the top of mind while styling the other "Holidate" characters."I tried to show that women, in their clothing, have an idea of who they are. Things happen in their lives, but that doesn't directly affect how they choose their clothes," Huang said.<a href="https://www.netflix.com/title/81034553">"Holidate" is now available to stream on Netflix.</a><ul class="read-more-links"><li>Read more:</li><li><a href="https://www.insider.com/holidate-when-harry-met-sally-luke-bracey-inspiration-interview-2020-10">'Holidate' star Luke Bracey says he and Emma Roberts looked to 'When Harry Met Sally' for inspiration while making the romantic comedy</a></li><li><a href="https://www.insider.com/most-iconic-movie-outfits-2018-9">26 of the most iconic movie outfits of all time</a></li><li><a href="https://www.insider.com/luke-bracey-emma-roberts-old-friend-holidate-costars-interview-2020-10">'Holidate' star Luke Bracey says it was like 'meeting an old friend' when he first read lines with costar Emma Roberts</a></li><li><a href="https://www.insider.com/the-craft-legacy-costume-designer-90s-fashion-original-movie-2020-10">'The Craft: Legacy' pays homage to the original movie with '90s fashion trends like tie-dye and patent leather</a></li></ul>
