While filming upcoming horror film Forbidden Fruits, Lili Reinhart and Lola Tung became close friends. On set, they’d share late-night movie nights, they tell Tyler McCall for Marie Claire‘s Next Gen issue.
The movie they loved most? The Love Witch, which Tung calls “life-changing.” If you’re unfamiliar, The Love Witch is a 2016 movie starring Samantha Robinson as a witch who casts spells to attract her ideal man. It’s a modern cult classic, boasting a 95% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

There’s a huge amount of admiration between Reinhart and Tung, with Tung telling Marie Claire of the Riverdale star: “She’s so dedicated. She has such a powerful presence on set and in a scene, she’s so captivating, and she has a confidence about her that I admire greatly and hope to take into future projects.”
“I feel almost like a little puppy dog following her around, because she’s such a cool friend,” Tung adds. “She also has so much wisdom to offer and gave me so much great advice. We talked a lot about all the things you can do to take care of yourself and advocate for yourself when you feel like maybe your voice isn’t always heard, especially as a woman in this industry, and when things are moving really fast.”
