It’s midnight on a Friday night at the Holy Rosary Church in Harlem, hardly the time and place for a wedding attended by hot young Hollywood-types. Yet Freddie Prinze Jr. and Mena Suvari, both decked out in formal gear, are watching Scott Caan tie the knot - to an extra.

The event is one of the final scenes of “Nailed Right In,” an ensemble 1980s coming-of-age drama the trio have been filming in New York for over a month.

The night before the wedding scene, Prinze and Suvari’s characters consummated their relationship though the pair had just met in real life. The “American Beauty” actress was shooting “Rumor Has It” with Jennifer Aniston, Kevin Costner and director Rob Reiner while Prinze and others were in rehearsals for “Nailed Right In.”

“We’re in bed together,” Prinze recalls of the previous night. “We sort of just made love for the first time. It was so comfortable. Right away, we just got each other and got what the scene was about. I sort of stepped back and it was magic.”

In the film, Suvari plays Ellen, a blue blood pearl necklace-wearing society gal who falls for Prinze’s wrong-side-of-the-tracks Michael. The dainty Survari says the testerone-ladden atmosphere of “Nailed Right In” is a “new frontier” for her, especially considering her character is “such a yuppie.”

“But it’s very easy to get into this character once you’re costume,” Suvari tells the AP inside of the church’s chilly dressing room. Although she’s wearing a slinky dress underneath, Suvari is covered in an oversized insulated all-weather jacket and thermal boots when the camera isn’t pointed in her direction from her perch in the pews.
