The Devil Wears Prada actress said the fact that Steve is the driving force behind the US version of The Office was a major attraction.
"To say that I'm a fan of The Office is really putting it mildly," she said. "When Steve and I don't see each other for a few weeks, my first question is - what's coming up? I love the show so much."
She continued: "I love humour that makes you feel uncomfortable and that show is so brilliant at it - I really relate to it. When I went to audition for this movie, I didn't think in a million years I was going to get the part, I really just wanted to meet Steve."
In the movie Anne plays a character called Agent 99 - who is no Bond girl despite the glam appearance.
"I get to be funny in this movie," Anne said. "My character is the lighter interpretation of a Bond Girl. No disrespect for Bond girls - it's fantastic. Halle Berry kicked ass in her Bond movie - and I feel like I got to engage in this film in the action arena. But I also got to trade quips with Steve Carell."
Get Smart is released in the UK on Friday.
