Anne Hathaway received a sweet surprise from Arsenal’s Leandro Trossard which left her starstruck on the Today Show.
Previously, a viral video showed her celebrating the Belgian’s Premier League goal against Wolves with
The Idea of You with co-star and fellow Arsenal supporter Nicholas Galitzine – where the Oscar-winner was heard saying ‘I love you’.
On Monday, the 41-year-old appeared on NBC’s Today show to promote the new film with Galitzine when she was blind-sided by a short video response from Trossard, 29.
Trossard said: ‘Hey Anne, I really loved your celebration the other day for my goal.
‘Keep supporting us, and hopefully we’ll see you soon at the Emirates.’
Galitzine, 29, said: ‘I’m more starstruck by athletes than anything else’, and admitted the message had ‘thrown me’.
Hathaway’s love for the red half of north London was previously unknown, before a chat with Interview Magazine revealed her passion, by asking Galitzine about Arsenal’s formation.
Her shocked co-star replied: ‘Oh, thank you, Anne Hathaway! The people at Interview don’t know that we’re both diehard Arsenal fans.
‘I really believe we’re in a great place right now. Is this a genuine question? Because I will tell you.’
To which Hathaway said: ‘I just thought this is a good chance to get Mikel Arteta’s attention.’
Following the celebration interview clip, Hathaway revealed it had been a ‘rough week’ for the pair of them following Arsenal’s Champions League exit.
Tom Holland, Harry Styles and Cara Delevingne are among the other top celebrities with unusual football allegiances.
Since Arsenal’s exit from Europe at the hands of Bayern Munich, Trossard scored against Wolves and Chelsea, before starring in their tense 3-2 win over north London rivals Tottenham on Sunday.
Mikel Arteta’s side next play Bournemouth at home on Saturday in a crucial game as part of their bid to take Manchester City’s Premier League crown.
The on-screen adaptation of The Idea of You premieres on Prime Video on May 2.
