Butler and Kravitz, 36, are said to have bonded in the wake of their respective breakups. She split from <a href="https://www.cheatsheet.com/news/zoe-kravitz-back-channing-tatum-girlfriend-oscars-party-eyewitness-says.html/">ex-fiancé Channing Tatum</a> in October 2024, shortly before Butler and Gerber’s split. However, things are still apparently very new for the two who co-star in the upcoming crime thriller, <em>Caught Stealing</em>. </p> <p id="par-9_53">“Austin and Zoë have been spending time together over the past few weeks,” a source told the outlet. “They get on very well, and their chemistry is as good off-screen as it is on it. Austin and Zoe have been keeping it under the radar and aren’t putting a label on anything yet.”</p> <p id="par-10_18">“They are both very respectful of their ex-partners and are just seeing how things go,” the insider added. </p>
