Tina Fey, Steve Carell Confirm Friendship After 15 Years

Tina Fey and Steve Carell, who previously co-starred in 2010's Date Night but remained reserved around each other due to their mutual shyness, have finally developed a close friendship while working together on the new Netflix series The Four Seasons. Both stars reflected on how their earlier collaboration was marked by polite distance, but their recent experience with a larger ensemble cast allowed them to become genuine friends. The Four Seasons, a remake of Alan Alda’s 1980s rom-com, follows three married couples whose decades-long friendship is tested by a divorce. Carell said he agreed to join the project immediately upon being asked by Fey, highlighting their strong professional rapport. The series, which also features Colman Domingo, Will Forte, Marco Calvani, and Kerri Kenney-Silver, premieres May 1 on Netflix. Both actors expressed excitement about the project and their evolved friendship.
