During the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, the happy couple spent their self-quarantine scripting a romantic comedy together, per Glamour. 

The pair might have taken inspiration from their own meet-cute which, as Alison Brie revealed during an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, was swoon-worthy. "It's a very romantic story and very sweet and it starts off in New Orleans at Mardi Gras where all great love stories begin," she quipped (via The Independent). The GLOW star and her friend Jules ran into Dave Franco at the airport and while the trio was having dinner later, the matchmaking began. Brie's buddy texted her under the table encouraging a hookup with Franco, to which the actress responded, "Yes, please." 

Unbeknownst to Brie, though, Jules showed Franco the messages and he enthusiastically confirmed he was "in." Finally, Jules told the actress while the two were in the bathroom together that the famous Franco brother had seen her texts and he shared her feelings. 

Brie noted, "It was a perfect set-up because we both got to leave the restaurant [and] head out to the evening of drinking and debauchery having a sexy secret that we knew the other person was on board. So then it was 48 hours of drugs and sex [and] a lot of making out." 

The actor subsequently took Brie out on a proper date, even leaving a secret note in her sweater inviting her to Paris with him. Naturally, she agreed, and the rest is history.
