We were joined on the Popternative show by Diego Boneta who stars in Paramount+‘s new rom-com At Midnight which dropped on the streaming platform on February 10th. The film follows Alejandro (Diego Boneta), an ambitious hotel manager, and Sophie (Monica Barbaro), a movie star navigating the politics of Hollywood. Alejandro is focused on opening his own boutique hotel, and Sophie is trying to focus on filming her new superhero film in hopes of getting her own spinoff, but catches her co-star (and boyfriend!) Adam (Anders Holm) cheating. Fate strikes when the shoot brings them all to Alejandro’s hotel in Mexico. Despite their radically different lives, Alejandro and Sophie begin to secretly meet at midnight.

At Midnight also stars Casey Thomas Brown as Chris, Sophie’s talent manager and old friend; Catherine Cohen as Rachel, Sophie’s loyal and free-spirited best friend; Fernando Carsa as Tachi, Alejandro’s best friend and bartender at the hotel; Whitney Cummings as Margot, a powerful Hollywood agent who represents both Sophie and Adam; and Maya Zapata as Aurelia, the hotel manager and Alejandro’s strict boss.

Watch our interview below with Diego where he discusses his experience filming At Midnight and what he enjoys about both the film and genre of romantic comedy.
