We enjoy working together... it's nice to miss each other too

Husband and wife Dave Franco and Alison Brie talk to YOLANTHE FAWEHINMI about their marriage and starring opposite each other in body horror Together

- 

THEY say falling in love can transform you. However, in their latest film, real-life married couple Alison Brie and Dave Franco show us how people can overlook the potential horror that sharing a life with someone can bring.

It can be anything from the lingering anxieties that come with commitment and codependency, to how monogamy plays out in modern relationships.

Alison, 42, and Dave, 40, who married 13 years ago in an intimate ceremony, star in Australian writer-director Michael Shanks’ directorial debut, Together.

A supernatural body horror it challenged their views on love, marriage and togetherness.

“I think it [Together] makes me not want to get under my partner's skin in a literal way,” says Alison, who made her name as Trudy Campbell in the hit drama Mad Men.

“I think it stresses the importance of independence within a relationship, and has also made me realise how codependent we are in our relationship,”

Dave, who starred in Now You See Me and its sequel, as well as Bad Neighbours, and is the younger brother of actor James Franco, agrees adding: “We definitely have a healthy level of codependency, I don't think this movie judges that.

“It's not necessarily saying codependency is good or bad, but it will probably make you evaluate your own relationship.
