Jason Bateman Dreamed Of Marrying Aniston

Jason Bateman once dreamed of settling down with his The Switch co-star Jennifer Aniston when they first became friends years ago.
 
The actress first met Bateman before her hit sitcom Friends took off, when the former Arrested Development star appeared alongside a pal in a doomed TV comedy called Simon.
 
She recalls Bateman being funny and he dreamed of marrying Aniston - when his days as a Hollywood hellraiser were over.
 
He tells USA Today, "I was playing a lot more back then and she was very tolerant. She had herself together... She was pretty inspirational.
 
"She was the kind of person that I thought when I get myself together, I hope I find somebody who's on it like she is."
 
And he freely admits his wife Amanda Anka is very similar to Aniston: "She reminds me a lot of her."

Despite the buge piblicity drive for the movie it opened a disappointing eiggth at the U.S. box office this weekend.
