All Of Us Strangers, released in cinemas this week, and recently uncovered some details about their friendship during an exclusive interview with NME.Scott, best-known to fans of BBC sitcom Fleabag as the ‘Hot Priest’, revealed his reaction to Mescal dressing up as the character for Halloween in 2022.
The image, which also features Mescal’s Normal People co-star Daisy Edgar-Jones in costume as Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s titular ‘Fleabag’, went viral and has since become a frequently referenced moment in Mescal’s career.
You can watch the pair discussing it in the above video. Mescal and Scott first met in 2020 when they appeared in a RTE charity sketch together, so when he and Edgar-Jones decided on their outfits two years later, he says Scott was the “first person I sent the picture to obviously” and that it would have been “creepy” if they’d never talked about it prior to shooting All Of Us Strangers.Scott suggested that, next time, Mescal shouldn’t dress up as one of his characters, but as himself, Andrew Scott the actor – and asked what he would wear. “A lovely little knit,” joked Mescal in reply.When asked which of Mescal’s characters Scott would choose to dress up as for Halloween, he picked his co-star’s upcoming Gladiator sequel, directed by Ridley Scott – and revealed that he’d seen some photos from the set already.Daisy Edgar-Jones and Paul Mescal dressed as Fleabag and the Hot Priest for Halloween pic.twitter.com/Qxcop7lNBm— Film Updates (@FilmUpdates) November 14, 2022Elsewhere in the interview, the actors discussed the supernatural themes which run through All Of Us Strangers, itself adapted from a 1987 Japanese ghost story by Yamada Taichi.
