Joe Alwyn is having conversations with Mary Beth Barone.
In fact, the Conversations With Friends alum was engaged in a lively chat with the Overcompensating actress while walking across the Williamsburg Bridge in New York City on Sept. 17.
For the outing, Alwyn, 35, sported a black T-shirt, baggy blue jean, dark sneakers and a baseball hat. Meanwhile, Barone, also 35, wore short black mini dress and metallic blue cowboy boots, which she paired with a pink handbag, gold chain necklaces and a jean jacket in her hand.
At one point in the evening, the two hit up a local bar, where Barone donned Alwyn’s cap as they chatted at the counter.
The sighting comes three months after Alwyn sparked dating rumors with Sarah Pidgeon. In June, he was spotted packing on PDA with the Love Story star during a night out in Brooklyn.

While she and Bravo, 38, did attend an NBA game together in March, Barone told Seth Meyers that the two were “not together anymore.”
