Daniel Craig & Rachel Weisz
When casting romantic leads for a film it’s key to have the right chemistry. Sometimes, that chemistry is so realistic, it transforms from an amazing performance to a real life relationship!
Dream House tells the tale of successful publisher Will Attenton (Daniel Craig) quits a high-power job in Manhattan to relocate his wife, Libby (Rachel Weisz), and two girls to a quaint New England town.
To celebrate the release of Dream House on November 25th, and its newlywed stars in real life, we’ve taken a look at some other celebrity couples who met on set.
- Daniel Craig & Rachel Weisz
It’s clear from the film that there is more than just impeccable British acting afoot! Daniel and Rachel began dating whilst filming Dream House, and married earlier this year.
- Kristen Stewart & Robert Pattinson
There was much speculation as to whether there was more than met the eye in the first film popular Twilight (2008), and by the time New Moon (2009) and Eclipse (2010) had wrapped, it was clear to see that young love had blossomed between this real life Bella and Edward, Kristen and Robert.

Controversy around the situation surrounding when they began dating aside (and to whether it was before or after Brad’s divorce), five years after the release of Mr and Mrs Smith (2007) this couple are still going strong.
