When you are set for months, days, and hours at a time, acting out romantic scenes with your co-stars, things may feel a little real. From the actor's point-of-view, when their characters fall in love on screen, it may be easier to blur the lines. Today, some of the most iconic couples we know in Hollywood met on set and fell in love! Isn't that so cute?
1. Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively
The Internet's favorite Hollywood couple has to be Reynolds and Lively. The two are known for their sense of humor online, as they are seen taking fun jabs at each other in interviews and on social media. According to the two, they met on the set of Green Lantern in 2010 while they were in separate relationships. In 2011, they found themselves, and a year later, they had tied the knot!
2. Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher
Another beloved celebrity couple! When these two got together, fans of the That '70s Show were ecstatic because their characters in the show were a famous couple on screen already! Their character's first kiss on TV was their first kiss in real life! Though this show aired in 1998, Mila and Ashton did not start dating till they met again in 2012 at an award show. They're now married and have two kids!
3. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie
Brad and Angelina, or Brangelina – as the Internet had dubbed them, have to be one of the most famous celebrity couples who met on set. Only a few years ago, they were the epitome of a perfect relationship, and many were left heartbroken when the two filed for divorce. The pair had met on the set of a movie called Mr. & Mrs. Smith in 2005. They got married in 2014 and have six children.
4. Eva Mendes and Ryan Gosling
That's right, people – this Ken has his Barbie in this universe! Eva Mendes and Ryan have been together for more than a decade. Still, they kept their relationship a secret for a very long time. They met on the set of The Place Beyond the Pines in 2012. It is said that Ryan himself suggested Eva for the role of his love interest in the file! That's one way to make a move!
5. Kit Harrington and Rose Leslie
On-screen love triumphed in real life for this couple, too! Though a bit of a spoiler, their relationship in Game of Thrones did not work out, but it was all looking positive behind the scenes. Kit and Rose played Jon Snow and Ygritte on HBO's Game of Thrones in 2012, but they made their relationship public in 2016. In 2018, they tied the knot in a beautiful ceremony in Scotland.
6. Zendaya and Tom Holland
Hollywood's fashion icon and our favorite Spiderman have been publicly dating since the last Spiderman movie came out. In their recent press junkets (for Dune and The Crowded Room), the two have openly expressed their love for each other, and the Internet is going wild! Tom claimed blurring the lines of his on-screen romance with Zendaya is all the frizz he needed for their real-life love story to work!
7. Rita Wilson and Tom Hanks
Rita Wilson and Tom Hank's love story has stood the test of time. In 1981, the two met on the set of their movie Bosom Buddies. However, Hanks was married at the time. In 1987, Hanks and his wife separated, and he and Rita Wilson got together in no time. Their romance was a whirlwind because, in the next year, the two had gotten married and now have two children together.
8. Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton
These two have been serving as coaches on the popular music show, The Voice, for a long time. They met in 2014 when they first joined the show in 2014, but at the time, both were married. After splitting from their partners, the two started dating in 2015. In 2021, they publicly announced their marriage! It might've not been a movie set, but the chords were in tune.
9. Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens
If you grew up in the early 2000s, you know that every teenager was obsessed with Troy Bolton and Gabriella from High School Musical. The two Disney stars met in 2005 due to the show. They were only 17 when they started dating and went strong for five years – a long time for a teenage Hollywood romance! Eventually, the two called it quits, devastating many fans.
10. Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson
These two are another couple resulting from a massive movie franchise. Kristen and Robert played the roles of Bella and Edward from the infamous book series-turned-movie franchise Twilight. They met on the set of the Twilight movies and fell in love, as they also played love interests in the film. This happened in 2009, but the two went their separate ways after only four years.
11. Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith
These two romances go back to the 90s, during the airing of The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. Jada auditioned to play Will's love interest in the show but sadly didn't get the role. She did win, though, because she met Will, and they started going out! The two eventually got married in 1997, in secret, in a fancy New Year's Eve wedding. They have two kids together: Jaden and Willow.
