Kristen Stewart and Nicholas Hoult had worked together in last year's movie, Equals, wherein they have a controversial sex scene which was talked about for months after the movie's release.

But did their closeness extend beyond their work relationship on set? According to In-Touch Weekly, the Equals are more than just friends and are actually hooking up.

"The two of them have hooked up in the past since they shot the movie together and prior to that as well. But Kristen is not ready to get into a relationship with anyone right now," a source said.

The Twilight actress has recently ended her relationship with musician, Alicia Cargile while Nicholas Hoult has since drifted apart from his last girlfriend, Jennifer Lawrence. Despite being both single, the two are keeping their relationship cool with Kristen "keeping her options open when it comes to dating."

Further the source said that, "Nicholas and Kristen do have a really strong connection and being around him makes her happy...[But] both of them [are] way too busy to be heavily involved."

In a separate report from Movie Pilot, the two are seen at the The Bowery Hotel in New York City. The two are said to have gone out for some drinks and return inside the hotel around 2 a.am with Kristen seen having 'a big smile on her face.'

The source also pointed out other instances when the two are 'cozying up.' They were also previously seen hanging out in Tokyo at a sushi restaurant.

Meanwhile, though Kristen has long since split from Twilight actor, Robert Pattinson, the actor's girlfriend and fiancé cannot help get jealous with the actress in a way that she is limiting Rob from seeing his ex in her recent movie promotion in NYC.

When Rob suggested supporting Kristen at a NYC event for her new movie, 'Clouds of Sils Maria,'" Twigs "went ballistic and screamed, 'No f--ing way.'" Now, as his relationship with Twigs gets more volatile, he's feeling completely torn between the two women," a source said as mentioned in Design Trend.
