Morena Baccarin may share her life with Ben McKenzie, famed for his role in “The O.C.,” but she admits she was never part of the “Ryan Atwood” fan club.
In a candid moment at the New York City premiere of “The Wrecking Crew” on Thursday night, Baccarin revealed to Page Six, “I wasn’t, I wasn’t a huge fan,” reflecting a hint of embarrassment.
Surprisingly, Baccarin confessed she had never even watched the iconic series. Her connection with McKenzie blossomed from his real-life persona rather than his portrayal of the charming Ryan Atwood.
Even though she missed the show’s initial surge, Baccarin appreciates its current revival. “I think it’s awesome,” she enthusiastically remarked, acknowledging the renewed interest in the series.
“I think it’s awesome,” she gushed.
McKenzie, 47, and Baccarin, 46, actually met on the set of “Gotham” in 2014.
The two went on to welcome their daughter, Frances, in 2016 and tied the knot a year later.
The couple later welcomed their son, Arthur, in 2021.
Baccarin also shares a son, Julius, with ex-husband Austin Chick.
The “Homeland” alum will soon be featured in “The Wrecking Crew,” which stars Dave Bautista and Jason Momoa as estranged half-brothers who reunite to solve the mystery surrounding their father’s unexpected death.
Not surprisingly, the “Deadpool” star loved filming with the duo.
“It was great. We shot the car sequence, we were in a car together for five days … the joking and the camaraderie,” she gushed, noting that despite their mountainous physiques, both of them are “tender, big, kind guys.”
