Real Life Couples Playing A Couple In A Movie?


Richard Burton and Elizabeth Taylor in "Who's Afraid of Virginia Wolf" is the first one that comes to mind.

Any others?

You’re welcome 😊

Gary Merrill and Bette Davis were in a few together as well. All About Eve … just to name one.

Brad Pitt & Gwyneth Paltrow in "Se7en"
Daniel Craig & Rachel Weisz in "Dream House"

Cobra (1986): Sylvester Stallone and Brigitte Nielsen (married 1985; divorced 1987).

They were in Rocky IV (1985) too, but they didn't play a couple.

reply

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie - Mr. & Mrs. Smith
(Does this count?)

reply

Sure, if they were a couple at the time.
(I don't know anything about the movie or them, though)

reply

Apparently, they hooked up whilst on set.

reply

Ah... I think that happened with Burton and Taylor on "Cleopatra" (another movie I haven't seen).

reply

Charles Bronson and Jill Ireland - The Valachi Papers (1972); From Noon Till Three (1976); Death Wish II (1982).

Jeff Goldblum and Geena Davis were in a few movies together. I think they met on the set of Transylvania 6-5000. Then they were in The Fly and Earth Girls Are Easy, in which they were a couple in both. And I’m pretty sure they were married during the latter.
