“It’s so funny,” actor Andrew Scott, points in a recent interview with On Demand Entertainment, “ People are constantly talking about our bromance. But neither one of us are particularly bro-like.” 

The Dubliner who shot to stardom playing 'hot priest' in Fleabag, was referring to his friendship with Paul Mescal and how they'd clicked on the set of their latest film, All of Us Strangers. In fact, they'd met years before at a charity event and "just sort of hung out". It helped that they had a lot of friends in common.
