Slate praised Lively's dedication and attention to detail. "She's so prepared, knowing exactly where things occurred on the script," Slate said.

Beyond the acting, the two forged an unbreakable friendship. "She's a deeply trustworthy person who is also willing to share," Slate recalled. "I was never expecting to have the off-set experience that I had."
