On Set Romance
Can a genuine romance occur between actors on a film set? Reportedly. In fact, it’s pretty much the bread and butter of the tabloid news industry. Check out some of the best known celebrity couples who met while making a movie.
Warren Beatty +Annette Bening on Bugsy
When notorious Hollywood playboy Warren Beatty met Annette Bening on the mobster bio-pic Bugsy, most people didn’t think the relationship would last. However, 20 years later the two are still together despite constant tabloid speculation that their marriage is on the rocks.
Tim Robbins + Susan Sarandon on Bull Durham
After meeting on the set of the minor league baseball film Bull Durham in the late 1980’s, Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon became one of the most high-profile celebrity couples out there. They took political stands and were also in excellent, award-winning films. Sadly, they have gone their separate ways in recent years.
Jennifer Garner + Ben Affleck on Daredevil
The best thing to come out of the superhero film Daredevil was the real-life romance between Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck. After marrying in 2005, they now have 2 daughters and Affleck has reinvented himself as one of the best directors in Hollywood.
Angelina Jolie + Brad Pitt on Mr. & Mrs. Smith
The on-set romance between Jolie and Pitt fueled a garden industry of television, print and online tabloid coverage as Pitt was still married to Jennifer Aniston at the time. Whether their movie suffered for it is up for debate.
Goldie Hawn + Kurt Russell on Swing Shift
Two of the biggest stars of the 80’s, Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell met on the period romance Swing Shift. Nearly three decades later, they are still going strong and Kate Hudson even calls Russell “dad.”
