After Katherine Heigl decided to executive produce and star in “Firefly Lane,” she had to pack her bags and head to Vancouver, where the series was filmed. She was clueless about the area and in desperate need of moving advice, a conundrum she discussed with her former “Suits” co-star Dulé Hill. Per Parade, Hill knew Sarah Chalke, who just so happened to be a Vancouver resident— and he hooked Heigl up with the helpful “How I Met Your Mother” alum. “Mostly, we chatted about kids, schools, and neighborhoods,” Chalke recalled. “We just instantly connected and had a lot in common.”
While Heigl didn’t immediately consider Chalke as a potential co-star, she later realized that her new friend was the obvious choice. “When they mentioned her to me as an option for Kate, I went, ‘Oh, my God, she’d be amazing because I love her,'” Heigl told Parade. “She’s just an effortlessly good person.” Series creator Maggie Friedman confirmed to Forbes that Heigl and Chalke didn’t have to fake their warm feelings for one another during filming, and journalist Dana Feldman observed that the actors’ real-life friendship was evident in her interview with them.
Chalke told Manny The Movie Guy that she and Heigl enjoyed each other’s company so much, that they spent time together on their days off. And in an interview with The Washington Post, she even described Heigl as “somebody I will be friends with for life.”
