In her interview with the media portal, Kravitz went on to reveal,  “I felt, even from afar, before I knew him, that he was a feminist and that he wasn’t afraid of exploring that darkness, because he knows he’s not that. That’s why I was drawn to him and wanted to meet with him. And I was right.”

She further added, “I think that’s exciting to watch someone who’s mostly played boy next door, good guy, love interest, all of that.” The former couple got into a relationship while working on the movie together, which was dropped in theaters in 2024.

The Dear John actor and Kravitz made it official to the public by sharing a post together on the Instagram account.
