Nicholas Hoult shares a 'deep connection' with Toni Collette

Nicholas Hoult shares a "deep connection" with Toni Collette.

The 34-year-old actor starred alongside Toni, 51, in the 2002 comedy-drama film 'About a Boy', and Nicholas still has fond memories of working with the acclaimed actress.

Nicholas - who reunited with Toni to shoot 'Juror #2' - told 'Extra': "I was thrilled. I mean, getting to work with Toni as a kid when I was 11 ... I mean, she just set such a wonderful example for me then and took such great care of me.

"I feel like we got a deep connection and bond from all those years ago but then also, like, you know, now as adults getting to work together, and just appreciate the light and joy she brings into the world as well because she’s such a wonderful person to be around."
