The actors have happily accepted the role of the ‘internet’s boyfriend,’ a term that has been circulating around social media.
The pair admitted to People in an interview that they have a WhatsApp group chat called ‘internet’s boyfriend’ in which they send each other the latest fan posts.
“We’ll send each other pictures of ourselves: ‘These are what my fans are saying.’ So, we’re into it big time,” Chris said.
“We invite people if we’re walking down the street, ‘C’mon join the Whatsapp group,’” he added.
One fan wrote on Twitter: “Chris Pine became the new internet boyfriend just by existing and doing nothing.”

Their new film was released on Friday 31 March and has an 89% score on Rotten Tomatoes at the time of writing.
