Evertt, 59, and his costars Cameron Diaz, Dermot Mulroney and Julia Roberts reunited for EW‘s romantic comedy issue, and reminisced about having Mulroney’s dog on set, Roberts’ crop tops and singing karaoke in Chicago ahead of filming.

“We went to an actual karaoke joint,” Mulroney, 55, recalls of preparing for one of the movie’s most memorable scenes with Roberts. “I’d never done karaoke before, you seemed to have had some experience. So skillful at karaoke that night. But we were using aliases because we didn’t want our names … I was Tom and she was Nicole, which at the time was funny because it was about 22 years ago. I don’t have to explain.”
