Meg Ryan and David Duchovny show real chemistry while promoting upcoming R-rated romantic comedy What Happens Later on ABC talk show

Meg Ryan and David Duchovny showed off great chemistry as they laughed during a talk show interview Wednesday while promoting their upcoming romantic comedy.

The 61-year-old actress made her debut on Jimmy Kimmel Live in a joint interview with her co-star David, 63, to promote their R-rated film What Happens Later, which Meg also co-wrote and directed.

Jimmy, 55, asked Meg and David how long they had known each other and they couldn’t remember if they first met in a lift or at the airport.

“But it was short, but now we know each other pretty well,” Meg said, looking at David and smiling.

‘Interesting. Did David impress you in that elevator? Because you remember,” Jimmy said.

“Have you ever seen me push a button?” David joked as Meg laughed.

“You would remember that too,” Meg said.

Meg explained that What Happens Later follows two people who dated way back in the 1990s.

“And we get stuck there at night like a blizzard. And we have some unresolved issues from 20 years ago, like some pending issues,” Meg said.

‘Right. Who’s Chad?,” David said as Meg giggled. “Who is Chad?”

Jimmy asked if they were filming at a real airport.

“Yes, and you haven’t lived until you’ve spent all night in an airport—eighteen nights in a row,” David said.

Meg revealed that they filmed at an airport in northwest Arkansas and also used a museum.

“We filmed with real passengers going in and out of the airport,” Meg said.

David noted that they were not allowed to talk to anyone during filming because it was illegal to stop anyone at an airport.

“We’d be shooting, and someone would say, ‘That’s Meg Ryan.’ I would say, ‘That doesn’t help,'” David said.

Meg said the film takes place over one night, but the entire shoot took about 21 days.

“Meg, you directed the movie. You co-write the film and play the leading role in the film. I assume you cast David in the film. When that happened, were you honest with him, were you candid? Did you tell him he’d be at the airport for three weeks?’ Jimmy asked.

“No,” Meg admitted.

David admitted that he could have found out by looking at the schedule.

‘Two or three days later I thought, oh my God. There is nothing more depressing than watching a Cinnabon break and seeing the same person pick it up eight hours later,” David said.

Meg said they were filming in Bentonville, Arkansas, and Jimmy noted that this is the home of Walmart and asked if they were going.

“Yes,” Meg and David replied at the same time, causing them both to burst out laughing.

Jimmy asked David if Meg was a mean director and if she ever yelled at him.

“It would be funnier to say she was mean to me, but Meg was wonderful and just as charming and a director as well as a performer,” David said.

Meg pointed out that only she and David talk in the entire movie.

“Not to put you off seeing this movie,” David joked.

“If you don’t like us, don’t come,” Meg added.

“There’s no one in this movie but us,” David said.

“You’re stuck with us,” Meg said.

What Happens Later is released on November 3 by Bleecker Street.

The release was originally scheduled for October 13, but was moved to avoid competition with the Taylor Swift concert film Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour.

What Happens Later is Meg’s second feature film as a director following her 2015 Ithaca, which was also her last acting role.

The film is based on the 2008 play Shooting Star by Steven Dietz.
