Emma Stone would very much like to be excluded when it comes to picking sides between famous exes Joe Alwyn and Taylor Swift .

In a press release touting the release of Kinds of Kindness , Stone had ample praise for Alwyn, her co-star in the film.

I love Joe, she said. We had to do some pretty dark stuff on this one, so it was extremely comforting to be with him because hes one of the sweetest people youll ever meet.

Kinds of Kindness will mark an onscreen reunion for Alwyn and Stone, who previously co-starred in the 2018 film, The Favourite . Both films were also directed by Yorgos Lanthimos, whose 2023 film, Poor Things , nabbed Stone her second Oscar in March.

After the press release for Kinds of Kindness was issued this week, Stones comments about Alwyn immediately began generating headlines.
