We may not have gotten a reunion between Andrew Garfield and Amelia Dimoldenberg at the 2025 Oscars, but we did get the next best thing — Dimoldenberg subtly calling him out during a moment on the red carpet with actress Monica Barbaro, who Garfield is rumored to be dating. The drama!
“I heard we have something in common,” Dimoldenberg said to Barbaro, who seemed surprised as she responded, “What?” Instead of stoking the awkward tension even further, Dimoldenberg asked, “Was your first foray into theater A Midsummer Night’s Dream?” Smooth. “Yes,” Barbaro said, adding, “That’s what I thought you were gonna say.”

If you’re thinking what I’m thinking, then the obvious thing in common they share is a history with Garfield, the flirtiest man alive. He and Dimoldenberg had a two-year flirtationship before they sat down to record a rom-com worthy episode of Chicken Shop Date, and while nothing romantic came of it, the internet had a field day watching the pair’s palpable sexual tension play out on screen. Barbaro, who was nominated for Best Supporting Actress for her role as Joan Baez in A Complete Unknown, reportedly began dating Garfield in January.
In my wildest dreams, Dimoldenberg and Barbaro would have ridden off into the sunset arm in arm post-Oscars, sans Garfield. Oh well. There’s always the next award show.
