When discussing close-knit acting duos, one of the most intriguing aspects is uncovering the playful antics they engage in during filming. In the case of Simone Ashley and Luke Fetherston from the show Picture This, these moments frequently entailed unexpected surprises and heartwarming instances that only serve to endear them further to their fans.
I had the chance to speak to Fetherston ahead of the premiere of Picture This, which was released on March 6 as part of the 2025 movie schedule. I knew I had to ask about the real-life friendship between him and Ashley. Fetherston often pulled pranks on the Bridgerton star, but one particular moment that he shared with her was the ‘date’ they did, which reflected their friendship in real life:
I used to jump out and scare her a lot, as much as I could. ’cause I’m such a prankster. I dunno how that went down. But I tried to do my best and then she actually used to do it to me and would win. One of the most memorable moments with Simone and I is when we shot the fourth date. Because we had that balance of Pia’s hair getting set on fire and then the slightly sensitive kind of intimate moment where Jay talks about his coming out story. So that balance throughout the day was just really fun to play with.
In the account that Fetherston recounts, Pia finds herself at a particularly low ebb, and as a means of lifting her spirits, she agrees to join Jay (Fetherston) on what turns out to be a sham date. During this outing, they share an amusing incident: in an unusual method of lighting it, Pia accidentally sets her hair ablaze while smoking a joint. This moment is met with laughter.
Picture This, which you can see with an Amazon Prime Video subscription, has so many great moments between Ashley and Fetherston as two best friends running a photography studio. But as someone who loved the movie, I can totally see why that’s the perfect scene. It seamlessly blends comedy with drama and cuts off in the ideal place.
It’s almost funny to see Luke Fetherston in a role such as this considering he’s taking on a central role in a big fantasy show, The Wheel of Time, on Amazon as well. I prefer his hilarious shenanigans with Ashley over swords any day.
Either way, their cute friendship is one of many things Picture This has, like its excellent representation of South Asian culture. Or we could talk about the epically amazing Bollywood-style dance scene at the very end. Jay and Pia are just that little extra, which makes it so much more special.
If you’re craving more movies like Picture This, I’d suggest checking out the best rom-coms ever because you’ll be experiencing even more cute moments between besties more and more.
If that’s not sufficient, you could repeatedly watch this movie and only wish you shared the bond these characters do. To ensure my best friend understands how to handle an emergency involving my flaming hair, I need to teach them to use an oven mitt to put it out.
