There are real mom and son have sex videofew certainties in this life, but one is that if two gorgeous actors pose for a photo together, Film Twitter will beg for a rom-com. Such is what happened yesterday when Ayo Edebiri posted an Instagram Story with Paul Mescal in celebration of St. Patrick's Day.
Ever since the internet caught wind that the Irish actor is interested making a rom-com with Edebiri, it hasn't let it go.

The publication followed up with Edebiri asking what she thought of his proposal. And she's down. "If somebody writes us a good script. It has to be in an About Timevibe. Something that’s got, like, a heart, so he can still flex his drama muscles where it’s like, the covert rom-com. Like, still a rom-com, but we got to get something inventive," she said.
