Hollywood couple Michael Fassbender and Alicia Vikander have admitted they had instant chemistry after meeting on a dance floor at the Toronto Film Festival.

The pair, who play lighthouse keeper Tom and his wife Isabel Sherbourne in drama movie "The Light Between Oceans", met on a dance floor and despite the 39-year-old actor's poor moves, he admits there was an immediate spark, reported Entertainment Tonight.

"We had met at Toronto Film Festival and just on the dance floor," Vikander said.

Fassbender added, "I thought [I was a good dancer] until she started dancing and then I felt like I had two left feet. (The chemistry) was sort of there from the beginning."
 

After that the pair got close while filming "The Light Between Oceans" and often threw some shapes together in the mornings on set to keep warm.

"There was a load of dancing in the mornings, actually," the 27-year-old actress said. "Because it was cold," Fassbender said.
