Netflix Just Lost Best Hate/Love Rom-Com Ever – You Can Watch It on Apple TV+ Now
Even two decades later, no acting duo has managed to achieve such on-screen chemistry.
Sometimes real-life partners play lovers in a movie, and sometimes on-screen love lives on off the set. In those moments, there is an unparalleled chemistry between actors whose duet is impossible to take your eyes off.
In the 2000s, the tabloids were filled with gossip about the romance of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, whose relationship even got its own name – Brangelina.
In Mr. & Mrs. Smith, the actors played a married couple – spies who have to kill each other.
The first meeting of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie did not seem fateful at all – the actors did not like each other and never missed an opportunity to express their hostility. However, during the time spent on the set of the movie, the relationship changed radically.
The world was divided into two camps: some began to blame Angelina for ruining Pitt's marriage to Jennifer Aniston, while others, on the contrary, blessed the stars and called them the main couple of Hollywood.
20 Years Later, Mr. & Mrs. Smith Is Still a Prime Example of On-Screen Chemistry
From the beginning, there is tension between John and Jane, who have been living together for several years. It is clear that the couple is not perfect, and they both have claims on each other – otherwise they would not have gone to a family psychologist.
But a little later, the story takes us to the past, where we see people who are madly in love. They had just started dating, and their relationship had not yet been undermined by family life and a bunch of marital obligations.
During the shooting scene, these two are literally trying to kill each other. John, with particular passion, beats his wife, who is not inferior to him in cruelty. However, literally a few minutes later, there is no trace of their anger and aggression – the two confess their love to each other as if nothing had happened.
Even after 20 years, Mr. & Mrs. Smith remains the perfect example of love/hate relationships on screen and real chemistry between actors.
