Last month, Rodriguez exclusively confirmed to Us Weekly that she and actor Joe LoCicero are engaged. “I have a very, very special man in my life. I am engaged. You’re the first people that I’ve told,” she told Us while promoting her work with Always #EndPeriodPoverty Opens a New Window and Feeding America to donate feminine products to underprivileged females. “I’m marrying a really incredible human being.”

She shared the same sentiment on Saturday night. She added to Us: “He’s the best. He’s the greatest human being on the planet.”

“It’s something that’s the unknown. The unknown, the spaces in which we have no fact. We can live in imagination and excitement and it not be scary but really exciting,” she said. “So, there’s a lot of things I believe that I can’t see!”

The animated film hits theaters on Friday, September 28.
