Kathleen Turner and Michael Douglas play exes in The Kominsky Method but in real life, they are great friends. They first worked together in the 1984 film Romancing the Stone. Now, they are happy to be working together again on the Netflix show.
Kathleen said they immediately felt chemistry while working together again. She said, “I think it was pretty immediate, even though we [filmed] this whole thing with COVID protocols, so that added to the difficulty. [Michael, myself, and the cast] couldn’t really be together much at all. So we had to really just jump into it [on set].”

For fans of the show, Kathleen even gave a little bit of a spoiler in a recent interview with Fox News. She talked of her character Roz and Michael’s character Sandy’s relationship. “I think they are reminded of why they were attracted to each other,” she said. “They started to have a certain warmth toward each other again that they had lost. It’s kind of intriguing.”
