“I think at any work environment, you never know if you’re going to love your coworkers or hate them, or if you’re going to get along or just be respectful and professional with each other,” she said. “You don’t know. And that’s in any work environment.”
“So mine is no different than anybody else’s in that way,” she continued. “Except that we’re either pretending to love each other or hate each other, but off-camera, it could be completely the opposite.”
Heigl, who spoke with PEOPLE to promote herArtware Shopify store, referred to the set ofFirefly Laneas “magic.”
She added: “Every one of the people, every actor, every crew member, it was an incredibly good, decent, fun and talented group. And it made the day so much easier, so much more joyful.”

In addition to working with her costars, Heigl also admitted she will miss bringing to life the story of the friendship between her character Tully Hart and Kate Mularkey (Chalke).
“I really, really miss Tully and Kate. I loved these characters from the book and then fell even obviously more deeply in love with them through this journey,” she shared. “And it’s hard to let them go.”
“I feel like I’ve lost a friend or something in Tully,” she added. “She’s gone now. I never get to be her again.”
Heigl added that bidding farewell to the series is “very, very bittersweet,” adding, “I’m so grateful to have had the experience and I am a little heartbroken that it’s over, but it comes to an end.”
