The set of Zac Efron, Nicole Kidman and Joey King’s new rom-com, “A Family Affair,” seemed to be filled with jokes and laughter. In honor of the film premiering on Netflix June 28, Efron shared a behind-the-scenes video that showed how much fun the trio had making the movie. He uploaded the video to Instagram that revealed how King nailed the hilarious scene in the movie when she walks in on Kidman’s character, her mom, and Efron’s character, her boss, sharing an intimate moment.
King barges into the room, spots the pair, starts choking, screams and runs straight into the door frame. As she pretends to hit her head and fall to the floor, Efron turns the camera to face himself and bursts into laughter. “Let’s go!” he says as Kidman also giggles.
“That’s my girl,” Kidman praises and gives a thumbs-up to the camera. After the director yells cut, King walks over to the pair and joins in on the laughing session. “Oh my gosh!” she says.
Efron compliments her and adds, “That was so good,” before the clip ends. Although Efron portrays King’s egotistical and irksome boss in the flick, it appears the two were close friends when the cameras stopped rolling. They gushed about their friendship in a recent interview with Canadian outlet Etalk, with King revealing that she has admired Efron for a long time.
In a snippet from their sit-down uploaded to TikTok , the Etalk reporter brings up a video from years ago of King and Sabrina Carpenter re-enacting a song.
