In a new photo for her upcoming film, Types of kindness, Emma Stone and buddy Taylor Swiftis ex Joe Alwyn looked rather…intimate.
In the picture, Stone, 35, and Alwyn, 33, stood close together as he stared at them in a dimly lit area. In an instant, Stone didn’t make eye contact with him.
“Emma Emma Emma,” the film’s official Instagram account captioned the upload on Tuesday, April 23. “Joe Joe Joe.”
Stone and Swift, 34, have been close friends since they met at the 2008 Young Hollywood Awards. When Swift dropped that Speak Now When she released the Vault track “When Emma Falls in Love” in July 2023, fans were quick to speculate that the song was an ode to her pal. More recently, Swift and Stone collaborated on Swift’s “Florida!!!” from her The Tortured Poets Departmentwhich was released on Friday, April 19th.
The film is now being directed Yorgos Lanthimosand the star-studded cast – including Stone, Alwyn, Jesse Plemons, Willem Dafoe And Margaret Qualley – offers more connections to the Swift universe.
Stone and Alwyn – who Swift dated for six years, Us weekly confirmed their split in April 2023 – are not the only cast members with ties to the pop star. Qualley’s husband, Jack Antonoffhas collaborated with Swift on many of her albums, including TTPD.
Types of kindness is described as a “triptych fable” and follows “a man with no choice who tries to take control of his own life” and a “policeman worried that his wife, missing at sea, has returned.” is and looks like a…”another person” and finally “a woman who is determined to find a specific person with special abilities who is destined to become an amazing spiritual leader.”
In the teaser for the film, which was released in March, Stone can be seen driving down the street in a fast car. “This is it,” Stone said in voiceover. “The moment of truth.”
The less than minute-long video, set to Eurythmics’ “Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This),” continued with excerpts from each performer. In the end, Stone’s car pulled into a parking space when she was heard saying, “Isn’t it wonderful?”
Lanthimos, 50, previously described the film as three different stories “with four or five actors playing a role in each story, so they all play three different roles,” he noted during an interview with The guard in December 2023, “it was actually almost like making three films.”
Lanthimos and Stone have previously worked together on the film Poor things – a role that earned her a Best Supporting Actress Oscar in March and 2018 The favouritewhich also starred Alwyn.
“It’s great to be working with Emma again,” Lanthimos told the outlet. “It makes it so much easier to have someone there who trusts you so much and who you trust so much.”
Types of kindness hits theaters June 21st.
