Many Chicken Shop Date episodes have gone viral, but we have a feeling this next one is going to truly capture the internet's heart.

On Monday, creator and host Amelia Dimoldenberg shared a teaser for her upcoming date with actor Andrew Garfield. It's only eight seconds long, but frankly the tension is simmering.

At the time of writing, that clip has well over 13 million views on X (formerly Twitter).

So, why is this particular date so hotly anticipated? Well the main reason is Dimoldenberg and Garfield have had a couple of interactions go viral before, at different red carpet events.

Here's their first meeting at GQ's "Men of the Year 2022" event, which Dimoldenberg covered on the red carpet.

And here's their next meeting at the Golden Globes in 2023.

Both of those clips went viral at the time, and fans have been calling for a date ever since.

On Friday, it looks like we'll finally get our wish.
