Jennifer had long been a fan of the director, sharing that she has wanted to work with him since seeing his 2010 film Black Swan.

She shared that when Darren pitched her the role, despite not having a script yet, she immediately accepted.

She and Darren are said to have gotten close while filming the upcoming home-invasion horror movie this past summer in Montreal.

They were spotted putting on a tactile display while out together in New York City earlier this month.

Darren was also seen on the campus of Duke University on election day, offering students the chance to FaceTime with Jennifer in exchange for heading to the polls.

Jennifer was previously linked to Coldplay's Chris Martin, and X-Men co-star Nicholas Hoult. Darren was previously engaged to actress Rachel Weiz, with whom he shares 10-year-old son Henry.

Meanwhile, despite gushing about the director's artistic abilities, Jennifer kept mum on the status of their relationship.

She declined to comment on her dating life past ex Nicholas, whom she dated while filming X-Men: First Class and X-Men: Days of Future Past before splitting in August 2014, revealing that privacy is one of her biggest struggles.

'You might think you know me, but when you approach me you’re a total stranger to me and I’m scared,' Jennifer advised her fans.

She continued: 'I get very protective of my space. It took me a long time to be able to do that. But if I’m eating dinner and somebody comes up and a flash goes off from someone’s iPhone camera, I am really rude to that person. Then other people at the restaurant will see and be like, 'Oh, damn, I don’t want to do that.''

The Oscar winner added that 'privacy is a full-time job and I work very hard at it.'

Jennifer next appears in Morten Tyldum's drama Passengers, alongside Chris Pratt, who she called 'a ray of sunshine.'

The two star as a journalist and an engineer traveling aboard a spacecraft to a distant colony planet, who are awakened 90 years early due to a malfunction.

Passengers, which also stars Michael Sheen and Laurence Fishburne, hits theaters on December 21.
