Since starring in Netflix’s To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before, fans have wondered if Lana Condor and Noah Centineo dating. The truth is they’re not, but they do have a super cute friendship that rivals Lara Jean and Peter’s.

It’s no secret that Centineo and Condor have amazing chemistry, which is how viewers fell in love with their characters. With the success of TATBILB and its sequels, it’s understandable why fans would be interested in Centineo and Condor’s dating lives—and if they’ve ever had feelings for each other.

“I did [set early boundaries with Noah,]” she said “We had just come back from a hot yoga class and went to his apartment, and we ordered pizza, and it’s kind of like, ooh, hot yoga, pizza, what’s happening? It was right before we shot the movie, just getting to know each other. And I felt something. And then so we went like this, and I looked at him and I went, ‘Noah, it’s not going to happen between us.’ Yeah, because I felt, for the show to do well, we had to be best-friend professionals.”

She continued, “And so I was like, ‘it’s just not going to happen.’ And he was like, ‘Yeah, it’s not going to happen.’ And I was like, ‘Great!’ So we kind of did what we did in To All the Boys the movie, we kind of made a contract and set boundaries and then I’m so happy that we did that because the movie turned out great and now we’re doing a sequel. So I have to work with him again so imagine!”

Condor, for her part, is now in a relationship with musician Anthony De La Torre, while Centineo has had several public romances too.

When Lana Turned Down Noah at Their Audition

In an interview with MTV News, Condor talked about how she turned down Centineo at one of their first auditions. Both actors found themselves waiting to audition when Centineo sat down next to Condor and asked if she wanted to read lines with him. “I look up and I see this gorgeous, tall, beautiful man that is Noah walk through the door, and I was like, ‘Not today!’ And I kept reading,” Condor said. The actress turned him down, but the two met again when Condor was cast for the role was doing chemistry reads with possible Peter Kavinskys. From that point on, their friendship bloomed and here we are today. “To this day, I think he’s the greatest guy ever, so it was not hard being his costar at all. I have a crush on him.

When Lana Avoided Noah on the Last Day of Filming

In an interview with Entertainment Tonight in 2021, Condor revealed that she avoided Centineo on the last day of filming for the final TATB movie, To All the Boys: Always and Forever, because it was too emotional to say goodbye to him.

“I kind of just avoided him throughout the day,” she said. “Like, I didn’t want to look at him. I didn’t want to talk to him. I was like, ‘No, this isn’t happening,’ and that was pretty rough. I just feel very grateful for everyone on the cast and I feel very grateful that I got to work with Noah because I think our relationship really stood the test of time in these movies. I really enjoy him as a scene partner and as a person, so saying goodbye to him knowing that we were going to keep going, but that was his last day, really, really sucked.”

To All the Boys: Always and Forever is available to stream on Netflix. Jenny Han’s To All the Boys books are available on Amazon.
