The actor shared his experience working with Selena Gomez:
"I had the best scene partner in Selena," he revealed to HOLA! during an exclusive interview. "We were very lucky that we were able to trust each other so quickly, and so easily. It was real, it was beautiful, it was a beautiful thing. It felt like we’d known each other for a very long time. We felt very safe with each other and very quickly became each other's safety net so that we were able to hold hands and jump off the cliff."
