Lily Collins (Emily)
Lily Collins, who plays Emily, is married to film director and writer Charlie McDowell. They met on the set of his movie, Gilded Rage, in 2019, and in an interview with Live With Kelly & Ryan a year later, Collins revealed that she had an instant connection with McDowell and knew she wanted to be his wife from the moment she met him. “I knew the second that I met him that I wanted to be his wife one day, so it was just a matter of when, really,” she said.
Collins revealed to Byrdie in 2020 why McDowell proposed to her during a road trip—a tradition they started that year. “You’re literally breathing in clean air,” she said. “You’re not feeling at a loss of creativity and you’re doing things with your hands and getting outside and building fires, and feeling really at peace in a time when there’s just been so much darkness.”
