Scarlett Johansson and Channing Tatum both approve of each other’s off-screen love interests!

In a new interview with E! News, the Fly Me to the Moon costars discussed their love lives, and Johansson, 39, recalled being excited to learn that Tatum, 44, was dating Zoë Kravitz.

The Black Widow actress — who starred with Kravitz, 35, in 2017’s Rough Night — told the outlet, "I feel like that was news when we first started working. I was like, 'Wait, no, you're dating one of my favorite people. She's so great.’ ”

"I love his fiancée," she added.

Referring to her and Kravitz' raunchy ensemble comedy — which also starred Kate McKinnon, Jillian Bell and Ilana Glazer — Johansson continued, “We've made a film together like several years ago. She's a wonderful person.”

Also speaking with E! News, Tatum revealed that he has nothing but love for Johansson’s real-life husband Colin Jost.

The Saturday Night Live star makes a cameo early in Fly Me to the Moon — and it’s a stand-out scene, Tatum added.

"It's low-key kind of one of my favorite scenes in the movie, because it's a little bit more pushed, like, comedy-wise and tonally than the rest of the movie," the Step Up star told the outlet. “Yeah, it's fun."

Also reflecting on her husband’s memorable cameo, Johansson added, "He's up for whatever. He just comes on the day and is, like, throwing out all this craziness.”

Fly Me to the Moon follows NASA's historic 1969 moon landing mission, and stars Johansson as Kelly Jones, part of the marketing team helping rehab NASA's public image, and Tatum as launch director Cole Davis.

Speaking about the lunar love story with PEOPLE, Johansson revealed that she didn't know Tatum before they began filming, despite having "many friends in common."

"Channing is such an easy-going actor, good spirited and professional,” she said. “Falling in love with him onscreen was pretty easy. He’s such a likable person.”
