You were fooled: these stars played lovers in the movies, but in real life they hated each other

It was all there: arguments, jokes and even self-mutilation.

The two played the most famous lovers of all time in Baz Luhrmann’s 1996 adaptation of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, but there are rumors that the actors did not get along off screen. Danes found DiCaprio too immature and was very annoyed by the jokes he constantly played on the cast and crew.

DiCaprio found Claire too reserved and anxious. The two reportedly didn’t even speak to each other outside of filming.

The actors played a couple in love in The Notebook (2004), one of the most romantic films of the 21st century. They even started a relationship in real life after filming, but Ryan and Rachel were initially hostile on set. Director Nick Cassavetes said the tension was so great that Gosling even asked to replace McAdams at one point.

After the release of the movie “Dirty Dancing” (1987), the actors became one of the most iconic movie couples, but in reality there was no “chemistry” between them. In his autobiography, The Time of My Life, Swayze wrote that his partner was unprofessional and very annoying at work. According to the actor, Gray was too emotional and cried when she received any criticism. At the same time, some scenes had to be shot over and over because Jen started laughing in the shot.

The actors starred in the film “I Love Trouble” (1994) and immediately fell out of favor. Julia was annoyed by Nolte’s machismo and became furious because of her anger, so he finally began to provoke the actress on purpose. The tension was so high that the actors filmed some scenes with stand-ins to avoid interacting with each other.

In The Sliver (1993), Stone and Baldwin had plenty of steamy scenes, but the actors actually despised each other during filming. The film’s director, Joe Esterhaz, has spoken out about their feud. Stone once even bit Baldwin’s tongue while filming their kiss. Billy was reportedly unable to speak for a week after this work-related accident!

The producers of The Tourist (2010) expected the actors to have a great interaction that would draw the audience in immediately, but it didn’t happen. Jolie was disappointed that Depp refused to cut his hair and was often late at night on set. Depp, on the other hand, believed that the actress behaves like a diva, is too smug, spends too much time with her hair and makeup and tries to control everything. As a result, on set, Depp preferred to stay in his trailer the entire time, only going out to film scenes.

Millions of men dreamed of kissing Marilyn Monroe, but for Tony Curtis on the set of Only Girls in Jazz (1959), it was real torture. He even said that “kissing Marilyn was like kissing Hitler”. Then Curtis denied for a long time that he ever said it, but finally admitted it, although he noted that the phrase was thrown as a joke. Curtis was annoyed that Monroe, taking advantage of her star status, could be late to the set and generally acted in the film without enthusiasm. However, Curtis also wrote in his memoirs about an affair with Monroe that began in 1950 and rekindled on the set of the film.
