Although Aubrey Plaza and Michael Cera kept it a secret at the time, the two dated after meeting on the set of “Scott Pilgrim vs. the World.” It was not merely a brief tryst, as Plaza said they dated for “a year and a half,” as she confirmed on RuPaul’s “What’s the Tee” podcast in 2016 (via People). Long after their romance ended, the former co-stars remained on good terms. “He’s a very special — I mean, we love each other,” the “Parks and Recreation” actor said. “We’re still really good friends. He’s just a weird little freak and we speak the same language.”
While working on “Scott Pilgrim” brought the duo together, they did not date until filming wrapped. “We just connected and after, it just happened,” Plaza continued. Apparently, the relationship was fairly serious at one point. “We drove across the country after we shot that movie and almost got married in Vegas,” Plaza admitted on the podcast (via Vulture).

Plaza and Cera may not have ever tied the knot, but as she mentioned, they stayed close even after their romance ran its course. In 2013, the “Juno” star even recruited Plaza to co-star with him in his short film “Failure.” The four-minute short is centered around a man (Cera) who is alarmed to find a woman (Plaza) has broken into his home just to “meet.” Even after splitting, Plaza and Cera preferred to keep their romantic lives under wraps.
