An out-of-this-world connection. Lana Condor and Cole Sprouse had to turn up the charm for their latest movie, Moonshot — and they’re happy they got to do it together.“The vibe was always good,” the To All the Boys actress, 24, exclusively told Us Weekly while promoting the upcoming film on Wednesday, March 23. “We had a really, really great time.”The Riverdale star, 29, and Condor added that they both felt “lucky” to get along so well, especially while playing characters who are supposed to be falling for each other.“It’s really special when you’re able to work on a job where your coworkers are just good people,” the Deadly Class alum told Us. “That’s not always the case, and that’s fine.

But for this, at least in my opinion, I feel very grateful and I feel very lucky that it was Cole, because I think that [he’s] a good person.”Moonshot takes place in a near future where Mars has been terraformed and colonized by Earth’s most successful humans.

Condor plays Sophie, a diligent college student who wants to go visit her boyfriend on the planet, while Sprouse stars as Walt, a barista who joins her in sneaking onto a space shuttle just because he’s always dreamed of going to Mars.The movie adds a sci-fi element to a more traditional romantic comedy, which is one of the reasons Sprouse decided to sign on to the project. “It seemed like a really good time,” he told Us. “It’s important to keep happy in what you’re doing, and this looked like a project that just seemed like a lot of fun.

It’s an easygoing, easy-to-digest, lighthearted film … and it wasn’t really more complicated than that.”Condor also had a blast making the movie, which filmed in Atlanta — a decidedly more laid-back environment than New York City or Los Angeles.
