Chastain recently opened up to PEOPLE about working with Isaac — whom she’s known for nearly two decades — and their close bond.
“Oscar I’ve known for 20 years and we went to college together. We have the same process,” she said. “When I got the scripts, I knew immediately it was going to be like a play, because most of it’s just him and I talking for an hour, sometimes not calm. So I knew it was basically just acting with Oscar.”

“We affect each other,” she continued of their ease working together. “And so we don’t have to plan what we’re going to do. It’s like surfing together. It’s a special thing, and it’s very rare to have it with another actor. We have it with each other.”
The pair previously starred together in the 2014 filmA Most Violent Year, which earned Chastain a Golden Globe nomination for best supporting actress. But they’ve been friends even longer, as they bothattended Juilliard Drama Schoolat the same time.
