The unbreakable chemistry between her and Evans on-screen is due to the fact that they’ve been friends for over 10 years, according to Johansson, and he agrees. They first met on The Perfect Score’s set and found such comfort in the company of each other, they couldn’t help but become best friends.

Actually, the Charlie’s Angels stars met when Barrymore used to work as a waitress and served Diaz, who was a model at the time, with coffee.
