In 2019, Radcliffe recalled filming a sexually explicit scene with Darke for PeopleTV's Couch Surfing.

"It'll be a hell of a story to tell our kids one day because of what our characters do with each other," he said.

Since appearing in the film directed by John Krokidas, Radcliffe has been open about his romance with Darke. In a 2014 interview with Us Weekly, he said it was "the kind of relationship I always aspire to have with someone."

"You want that person to be your best friend," he added. "In the case of Erin, we definitely are."

In 2018, Darke told People that she and her Miracle Workers co-star bonded over their passion for acting.

"There's something that's really beautiful and really lovely about being with someone who just innately understands that about you," she said. "He helps me make self-tapes sometimes. He's a great reader, by the way. We're both incredibly supportive of the other person's career."

Radcliffe, who is most known for the Harry Potter film franchise, has recently starred in films Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, The Lost City and Guns Akimbo. He also starred in Swiss Army Man from the Oscar-winning directors Daniels (Everything Everywhere All At Once).

Erin stars in the Prime Video series Moonshine. She has also appeared in the shows Dietland and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. – Los Angeles Times/Tribune News Service
