Vera Fermiga and Patrick Wilson has served an inseparable bond as husband and wife in the hit haunted film franchise The Conjuring.
The co-stars portrayed real-life couple and paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren in the franchise since the haunting first instalment in 2013.
Now they have returned for one final act in The Conjuring: Last Rites.
Reflecting on their friendship over the decades, Farmiga in conversation with the People magazine, said, "It just grows. It’s like any relationship. What we’ve been through together, what we’ve had to deliver together, has been pretty stressful and demanding."
The Orphan star went on to detail the demanding and tough schedule of the project.
"It’s not easy being away from our families. And at the same time we’re delivering these performances that sometimes feel like a hot mess in the moment," she said.
Farmiga went to praise her co-star on helping her deal with the exhausting routine.
She said, "[Wilson's] sense of humour is just the holy water to my hot mess. Time and time again he is able to make me giggle, whether it’s bringing me a homemade smoothie or curating some bourgeois coffee or crooning metal with me. He’s been a great friend."
The Bates Motel alum went on to say that even though they have "grown up together" still they don’t actually spend much time together when they are not filming.
"There's been five years go by where I don’t see this guy and then we could get commissioned to do another one, and I’m like, 'Oh, hey, there you are five years older!' We just pick up where we left off," she says.
The Conjuring: Last Rites is set to release on September 5.
