Just what the doctor ordered: Peter Facinelli and Jaimie Alexander are engaged.

The actor popped the question to his former “‘Nurse Jackie” costar on Monday, and his-and-her confirmations by their reps were made to the Los Angeles Times late Wednesday.

Facinelli, 41, who also played ageless vampire patriarch Carlisle Cullen in the “Twilight Saga” films, proposed to the “Thor” star in a scene straight out of a movie: at the top of New York’s Empire State Building, according to People, which was first to announce the engagement.

“Had fun @empirestatebldg with @JaimieAlexander Top of the world... “ Facinelli tweeted on Monday.
