Watch: Alicia Vikander Reveals Her New Year's Kiss!

Alicia Vikander isn't usually one to kiss and tell.

E! News' Marc Malkin caught up with The Danish Girl actress on the red carpet at the Palm Springs International Film Festival over the weekend and couldn't help but inquire about her New Year's Eve festivities. According to the Golden Globe- and SAG-nominated actress, she enjoyed a low-key night in with her "casual" yet confirmed boyfriend, actor Michael Fassbender.

"It was not a very, very late night because I had to fly here, but we had a grill going, cooked some pasta, made a good dinner, watched some fireworks," she told us. "We counted down until midnight. It was great!"

Pasta and fireworks? Sounds like the perfect pairing to kick of the New Year, if you ask us.

And speaking of perfect pairings, we couldn't help but ask the actress whom she kissed at the stroke of midnight. "I think I kissed my boyfriend," Vikander said nonchalantly.

Vikander, 27, and Fassbender, 38, were first romantically linked in 2014 after meeting on the set of their upcoming movie, The Light Between Oceans. The pair are rarely spotted together, and until now, both parties have remained pretty hush-hush about their romantic involvement. One thing's for sure: The talented twosome make one handsome couple! And the actress was all smiles (and dimples!—could she be any cuter?!) as she dished on her New Year's Eve honey.

"It's all about love, starting the New Year," Vikander told E! News.
