Red Dawn star Isabel Lucas still has a soft spot for her ex Adrian Grenier and hopes to meet him for spot of tea in her old stomping ground.

By coincidence, the Australian actress and her old flame are both in Melbourne, where she is attending the city’s film festival and he is promoting his new documentary Teenage Paparazzo.

Lucas, who appeared in the second Transformers movie, said she was hoping to meet Entourage star Grenier “for tea”, though whether she meant a cuppa or a dinner wasn’t clear.

She told Channel 7′s Sunrise program: “He’s really excited about Teenage Paparazzo. I hope we can meet up for tea. I have seen edits of his movie from about two years ago but I haven’t seen the final cut. I’m looking forward to seeing it.”

Talking about actors being celebrities, the LA-based actress said: “I don’t really get involved in that. I just keep myself separate from that side. I don’t go out a lot. Yes, there will be a lot of speculation and it makes for an unusual situation.”
