00:00Yeah, we're gonna get out there and start partying. That's what we love to do.
00:04Welcome to Ms. Mojo. And today, we're counting down our picks for the most endearing and
00:09enduring friendships between actors in the same movie.
00:13It reminded me of when we were kids, and we were talking to the fun. I'm like,
00:15so what's going on today?
00:17Number 50. Dave Bautista and Kumail Nanjiani.
00:21Stuber.
00:22There was a time when funnyman Dave Bautista and superhero Kumail Nanjiani
00:27seemed to have nothing in common. That they were still on opposite ends of the genre spectrum
00:32when they did Stuber was part of the buddy action comedy's novelty.
00:36I will drag your ass to jail.
00:38Oh, a white cop dragging around a brown man, that'll look great.
00:41I'm not white.
00:42But even with zany high-speed chases, spending hours in a car is a great way to get to know
00:47someone. By the time Stuber was released to praise for Bautista and Nanjiani's chemistry,
00:53it was entirely genuine. They've spoken about how their bond over a love of acting boosted
00:58ambitions to diversify their careers.
01:01I got you, uh, your rap gift for Stuber.
01:03Although the duo are now too busy to regularly meet up in public,
01:07Bautista is always holding out hope for Stuber, too.
01:11Number 49. Saoirse Ronan and Eileen O'Higgins.
01:15Brooklyn and Mary Queen of Scots.
01:17Though she earned particular acclaim for the period drama Brooklyn,
01:20Saoirse Ronan didn't have to do much acting in the scene set in Ireland.
01:25You look beautiful, Nancy.
01:28You look so beautiful. It makes me despair of this place.
01:31She really connected with her on-screen best friend Eileen O'Higgins,
01:35in spite of their limited screen time together.
01:38They've bragged about each other in interviews and even a Golden Globe acceptance speech.
01:42They also worked again on Mary Queen of Scots,
01:45which introduced Ronan to her husband, Jack Loudon.
01:48Have I vexed you?
01:49She and O'Higgins have been there for some of the most important events in each other's lives since 2014.
01:55It really is the sort of familial bond that continents couldn't separate.
01:59Number 48. Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande.
02:03Wicked.
02:03The filmmakers behind the two-part adaptation of Wicked
02:07don't deserve all the credit for nailing one of the great friendships in musical theater.
02:11Galinda, um, Nessa and I were talking about you just now and-
02:15Oh, well, we were just talking about you.
02:18How you should join us tonight.
02:19Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande captivated audiences with their chemistry
02:24as much as their dynamic portrayals of the witches Elphaba and Galinda.
02:28It's all thanks to their dedicated support of each other right from the casting phase of this daunting project,
02:34inspiring great performances and an even greater connection.
02:38Erivo and Grande spent the two-year press tour gushing about how their personalities brought a certain harmony to their
02:44lives
02:44that was undeniably legitimate.
02:46The trials of making Wicked may be over, but these talents are bound together for good.
02:51I think we're quite compatible, aren't we?
02:53Yeah, I don't know what the website says, but I think we're compatible.
02:56We're either really great or really terrible for each other.
02:59Number 47. Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds.
03:02The X-Men franchise.
03:04The bad blood between Wolverine and Deadpool didn't end with 2009's X-Men Origins.
03:09Wait, is that you?
03:15Your striker finally figured out how to shut you up.
03:17It seemingly continued with Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds across 15 years of public passive aggression and pranks.
03:242019 did see a brief truce in which the two supported each other's brands and sarcastically celebrated Best Friends Day.
03:32They're great actors, but this feud was obviously a put-on.
03:35Finally, Jackman and Reynolds went public with their not-so-secret friendship in 2024
03:40to promote the long-anticipated film Deadpool and Wolverine.
03:44They have the power to end my universe, but they also have the power to change yours.
03:50We get back there, and we can fix your world together.
03:55I promise.
03:57From hilarious banter to moving reflections on years of brotherhood,
04:01the actors were the real payoff after years of teasing a crossover.
04:04And long-time followers of the feud can't wait to see what peacetime will bring.
04:09Number 46. Kate Hudson and Liv Tyler.
04:12Dr. T and the women.
04:14The daughters of Goldie Hawn and Steven Tyler have surely earned legitimate stardom on their own.
04:20Who's here?
04:21Girlfriends.
04:22I was waiting for you.
04:24I was so happy.
04:26I was waiting for you.
04:27Their friendship also had deceptively humble beginnings,
04:31dating back to the grind of Santa Monica's Crossroads School for Arts and Sciences.
04:35Kate Hudson and Liv Tyler eventually shared a big break,
04:39as well as a romantic arc in Robert Altman's Dr. T and the women.
04:43It's also worth noting that in the same year, Hudson won wide acclaim in Almost Famous,
04:49in a role partly inspired by Tyler's mother, B.B. Buell.
04:52I need a new crowd.
04:58Do you want to come?
05:02Yes.
05:03Yeah.
05:04Yeah.
05:05You sure?
05:07Ask me again.
05:08Do you want to come?
05:11Yes.
05:12Yes.
05:12The two have not crossed paths in their careers since.
05:15Of course, they privately remain the model for proper BFFs,
05:19down to Tyler being godmother to Hudson's eldest child.
05:22Number 45.
05:24Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers.
05:26Fire Island.
05:27Actor Joel Kim Booster wrote Fire Island as a tribute to the true friends who starred alongside him.
05:33Of course, the relationship between Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers is particularly special.
05:38I'm sorry that was an involuntary response.
05:41After meeting at New York University,
05:43they've supported each other through the development of their comedy careers and other enterprises.
05:48And they've been inviting fans to follow along with the podcast,
05:51Las Culturistas, since 2016.
05:54Fire Island merely saw the two transition into more serious acting together.
05:59He might be a little bit more complex than that.
06:02It's been a long road since NYU,
06:04but Yang and Rogers seem eager to continue sharing a path.
06:08Number 44.
06:09Jamie Lee Curtis and Melanie Griffith.
06:12She's in the Army Now.
06:13Not a lot of people remember the TV movie She's in the Army Now
06:16after it failed to secure a show on ABC.
06:19Why don't you go and marry this guy for in the first place?
06:21Because we were in love.
06:23Yeah, which means you got pregnant.
06:24But it really meant a lot to Jamie Lee Curtis and Melanie Griffith,
06:27who first connected over being the daughters of Hitchcock blondes.
06:31They've floated in and out of each other's lives in the very busy decades that followed.
06:35And yet they insist that their bond grows stronger with each reunion.
06:38They're just reluctant to divulge the deeply personal experiences
06:42that distinguished this friendship from any in front of or away from the camera.
06:48Whatever war stories Curtis and Griffith have in store,
06:51they've clearly been through a lot together.
06:53I am so happy to be here today to honor and celebrate
06:58one of the most extraordinary women that I've ever known.
07:02My friend Jamie Lee Curtis.
07:03I may cry.
07:04Number 43.
07:06Tom Holland and Jacob Batalon.
07:08Spider-Man Home Trilogy.
07:10Everybody's talking about the romance that bloomed between Tom Holland and Zendaya
07:15over the course of three Spider-Man movies.
07:17But what about Holland's bromance?
07:19Are you an Avenger?
07:21Yeah, basically.
07:24You can't tell anybody about this.
07:26You gotta keep it a secret.
07:27The quirky friendship between Peter Parker and Jacob Batalon's Ned Leeds
07:31was driven by the actors really becoming like family.
07:34They lived together as teenagers during the production of Homecoming,
07:38with Batalon comparing the arrangement to a frat house.
07:41Over time, of course, they developed a sincere bond that they expect will last forever.
07:46Man, I would kiss you so hard.
07:47I know, so hard.
07:49Mind you, with the adventures they shared,
07:51Batalon isn't expecting to be the best man at Holland and Zendaya's wedding.
07:55Number 42.
07:57Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone.
07:59Various.
08:00From Crazy Stupid Love to La La Land,
08:03Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone may be one of the great on-screen couples in contemporary Hollywood.
08:08I thought you looked familiar.
08:09Have I seen you in anything?
08:11Uh, a coffee shop on the Warner Brothers lot?
08:14That's a classic.
08:15Oh, I see.
08:16Their off-screen relationship is strictly platonic, but no less special.
08:20They've described each other as teammates who bring out the best in one another.
08:24The mutual muses have shared a lot of fun times and deeper moments since the top of the 2010s.
08:30A viral restraining order joke in a 2019 E! interview suggests that even Stone is surprised
08:36that things haven't gotten more serious.
08:39Yeah, but he has a restraining order against me now.
08:41Does he?
08:41Yeah, I'm just gonna have to stay like 100 feet at everything else we do together.
08:45But when Gosling and Stone aren't keeping their chemistry professional for the camera,
08:50it still lights up their personal lives.
08:52Number 41.
08:54Elaine Hendricks and Lisa Ann Walter.
08:56The Parent Trap.
08:57The tension between the conniving Meredith and the nanny Chessie
09:01was pivotal in the remake of The Parent Trap.
09:03You're such a softie.
09:06Good doggie.
09:07So, Meredith, these the folks?
09:09The actor's performances are all the more iconic
09:12when you consider their dynamic behind the scenes.
09:14Elaine Hendricks and Lisa Ann Walter wound up being each other's life partner,
09:19as the latter told People Magazine in 2023.
09:23Their regular collaborations have become intrinsically tied to their status as pop culture icons.
09:28Part of the reason we became best friends on that set is we spent a lot of time
09:35creating fun for ourselves back in the trailers while we waited for setups to happen.
09:40More importantly, they've long leaned on each other for significant moments in each other's lives.
09:45Honestly, it's as if Hendricks and Walter were the Parent Trap who were stars separated at birth.
09:51Number 40.
09:52Chris Evans and Scarlett Johansson.
09:54The Perfect Score and Marvel Cinematic Universe.
09:57Brian Robbins, the director of the high school heist flick The Perfect Score,
10:02once claimed that the gorgeous young leads had so much chemistry
10:05that he forbade them from mingling off-set.
10:08You think you may be kind of preaching to the converted here?
10:10I know I am.
10:11That's why we approached you.
10:13We need your help.
10:14Chris Evans and Scarlett Johansson, in fact,
10:17developed a tremendous mutual respect that has grown ever since.
10:21Evans particularly admired the maturity of the younger co-star he came to see as an older sister.
10:26He also said it was pretty awkward for them to portray the long-term romantic arc
10:31between Captain America and Black Widow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
10:35Kiss me.
10:35What?
10:36Public displays of affection make people very uncomfortable.
10:38Yes, I do.
10:40The actors themselves have become a hot topic in the media
10:43for the fun and dignified companionship they've been building off-set for two decades.
10:48Number 39.
10:49Nicole Kidman and Naomi Watts.
10:52Flirting.
10:52Before becoming Hollywood royalty, Nicole Kidman and Naomi Watts met as teens
10:58while auditioning for the same roles in Australia.
11:01I think we should swap partners in the musical.
11:03Why?
11:04You're writing to him, aren't you?
11:07Not anymore.
11:09What happened?
11:11The coming-of-age dramedy Flirting holds some distinction
11:13for marking Kidman's departure from that film industry
11:16and Watts' breakout in it.
11:19They have managed to stay close along their respective journeys
11:22to becoming two of the world's most recognizable names.
11:25They just recognize each other as loyal supporters
11:27through so many professional and personal milestones.
11:31Watts even said that Kidman is, quote,
11:33like the sister she never had
11:34while presenting her with the AFI Life Achievement Award in 2024.
11:39It's what you do in friendships.
11:40You hold each other up and you hold each other tight.
11:43They have, after all,
11:44been there for every life achievement since 1991's Flirting.
11:48Number 38, Dominic Monaghan and Billy Boyd,
11:52The Lord of the Rings Trilogy.
11:54One of the best aspects of Peter Jackson's adaptation
11:57of The Lord of the Rings
11:58was the hilarious hobbit heroics of Peregrine Touque
12:01and Mary Brandybuck.
12:02I feel like I'm back at the Green Dragon.
12:07Mmm, Green Dragon.
12:09A mug of ale in my hand.
12:11Putting my feet up on a settle after a hard day's work.
12:17Only, you've never done a hard day's work.
12:20It's no surprise that the rich chemistry
12:22between Billy Boyd and Dominic Monaghan
12:25went beyond Middle Earth.
12:26They're certainly not shy about sharing
12:28the many adventures they've had
12:30since meeting on that historic production.
12:32Fans got to enjoy their seasoned banter
12:34and anecdotes on the podcast,
12:36The Friendship Onion.
12:37We happy three.
12:39Huh?
12:40It's amazing, right?
12:41And 2025 saw them embark on a culinary odyssey
12:44with the hit show,
12:46Billy and Dom Eat the World.
12:47Maybe Monaghan and Boyd are pandering a bit
12:50when they say they're becoming more like Mary and Pippin,
12:52but they're clearly sincere about growing that close.
12:55Number 37.
12:57Sarah Michelle Gellar and Selma Blair.
12:59Cruel Intentions.
13:01Catherine and Cecile's kiss in Cruel Intentions
13:03was a significant moment in pop culture in 1999.
13:07Wanna learn or not?
13:09I guess.
13:14In fact, Sarah Michelle Gellar and Selma Blair
13:18have shared many significant moments
13:20since building that kind of trust.
13:21They've supported each other through marriages,
13:24children, and the loss of their mutual friend,
13:26Shannon Doherty.
13:27In 2018, the public got to see the full extent
13:30of their connection when Blair bravely shared her battle
13:33with multiple sclerosis with Gellar's help.
13:37She stood by me since I first met her.
13:39I kind of idolized her before I met her, of course,
13:42and then to be true, true best friends.
13:45They've said that while they never expected
13:47Cruel Intentions to be this big a deal,
13:49they knew from the beginning
13:50that they'd be spending the rest of their lives together.
13:53Number 36.
13:55Tom Felton and Emma Watson.
13:57The Harry Potter series.
13:59None at Hogwarts dreaded Draco Malfoy
14:01more than Hermione Granger.
14:03Come to see the show.
14:04You.
14:04You foul.
14:05Loads of them evil little cockroach.
14:07Hermione, no.
14:09He's not worth it.
14:11The truth is that Emma Watson had a huge crush
14:14on the actually cool Tom Felton.
14:16That cleared up as the two became family
14:18over the course of a franchise
14:19that chronicled their coming of age.
14:21Their genuine lifelong friendship
14:23has brought a lot of support
14:24into their many ventures as adults.
14:26Watson says that Felton was her closest companion
14:29in managing the pressures of fame.
14:30And when she wrote the foreword
14:32for his 2022 memoir, Beyond the Wand,
14:35she said that they're soulmates.
14:37But no, I've got nothing but love for Emma
14:38and she's actually a huge encouragement
14:39for me to write the book in the first place.
14:41Felton and Watson have often had to downplay
14:44what they call a love for one another,
14:46but admit that it is hard to describe.
14:49Number 35.
14:50Pedro Pascal and Oscar Isaac.
14:53Triple Frontier.
14:54These two names immediately spring to mind
14:56when one thinks of today's most bankable actors.
14:59But nobody had heard of Pedro Pascal and Oscar Isaac
15:02when they met in an off-Broadway production in 2005.
15:05Nearly 15 years later,
15:07they brought their dynamic to a wide audience
15:09with the militarized heist thriller Triple Frontier.
15:12Since then, Pascal and Isaac have been regularly
15:15appearing together for lovable banter.
15:18I can't do this thing without you.
15:20I don't know, man.
15:21I got the new baby now.
15:22Behind all the fun is a relationship
15:24forged in conflict and triumph
15:26for these renowned Hollywood underdogs.
15:28Isaac's wife, Elvira Lind,
15:30has gone as far as referring to Pascal
15:32as her sister wife.
15:33We may not have even scratched the surface
15:36of heartfelt moments with this decades-long bromance.
15:39Thanks for Googling me, internet.
15:41Thanks for Googling him, internet.
15:42Number 34.
15:43Eddie Murphy and Arsenio Hall.
15:45Coming to America.
15:47It was actually Eddie Murphy
15:48who pushed for Arsenio Hall's casting
15:50as Prince Jaffe Joffer's assistant,
15:53Semmy, in Coming to America.
15:55You sure you guys want to go to Queens?
15:57And a couple of rich fellas like you
15:58should be in Manhattan.
16:00This ain't the Waldorf, but a palace.
16:02The palace sounds good.
16:04Take us there.
16:04No, I want Queens.
16:06And we're not rich.
16:07We're ordinary African students.
16:10The sincere sense of devotion
16:11between these characters
16:13came out of the actors connecting
16:14when Murphy passed through L.A.
16:16in the early 80s.
16:18The film's success not only
16:19supercharged their careers,
16:21but much more quietly solidified
16:23their friendship.
16:23They've managed to keep things
16:25mostly on the down low
16:26over the course of 30-plus years.
16:28There were even rumors
16:29of a feud in 2013,
16:31which Murphy debunked
16:32when he appeared on Hall's talk show.
16:34And with their on-screen reunion
16:36in 2021's Coming to America,
16:39they got to put into perspective
16:40a lifetime of shared experiences.
16:43He is not a prince anymore.
16:44He is our king.
16:46Oh, he's a king now.
16:49Number 33.
16:50Henry Fonda and James Stewart.
16:52Various.
16:54After rooming together
16:55in their university players' days,
16:57Henry Fonda and James Stewart
16:58shared the screen
16:59in On Our Merry Way,
17:01Fire Creek,
17:02and the Cheyenne Social Club.
17:04You know you can't draw
17:05worth a penny.
17:06Where, Harley?
17:07Great Plane Saloon.
17:08They pretty much jointly became
17:10two of the most important actors
17:11of their day,
17:12albeit to different audiences.
17:14Stewart was a model
17:15conservative idealist,
17:17whereas Fonda revolutionized
17:18celebrity progressive activism.
17:20It's said that a violent argument
17:22convinced them
17:23to never again
17:24converse about politics.
17:25Our folks were Democrats,
17:27John.
17:27And look where it got you.
17:29A lifetime on the range
17:31and sweating in the summer
17:32and freezing in the winter
17:34and sleeping on the ground
17:36and fighting the wolves
17:37and the rattlesnakes.
17:38No, no, Harley.
17:39Thankfully,
17:40these men of integrity
17:41had a lot more in common
17:42than a handful of projects
17:43across five decades.
17:45No matter how pronounced
17:46their ideological brands,
17:47Fonda and Stewart share a legacy
17:49in showing Americans
17:50how to respect each other.
17:52Number 32.
17:54Steve Martin and Martin Short,
17:56Three Amigos
17:56and Father of the Bride.
17:58Aside from Chevy Chase
18:00being infamously tough
18:01to get along with,
18:02Steve Martin and Martin Short
18:03lived up to the title
18:05of Three Amigos.
18:06The cult classic comedy,
18:07followed by 1991's
18:09Father of the Bride,
18:10combined their unique dynamics
18:12into what would become
18:13an equally iconic
18:14creative partnership.
18:15Uh-oh, hello!
18:17That's five months!
18:19Five months, not much.
18:21But that don't bother me so much
18:24because it's a little bit tight,
18:25but we can do it
18:26and it will be spectacular.
18:27The two Martins
18:28have since regularly appeared together
18:30for zany hijinks
18:31and good-natured ribbing.
18:33Behind this staged
18:34passive aggression,
18:35there's a genuine respect
18:37that endured
18:37through three decades
18:38of individual success.
18:40Since this was renewed
18:41by the acclaimed streaming series
18:43Only Murders in the Building,
18:45Martin and Short
18:46have become almost inseparable
18:48in public.
18:49Filming something today?
18:50I'm sorry?
18:51All the makeup,
18:52I just assumed.
18:53I'm not wearing makeup.
18:56Oh, okay.
18:57Of course,
18:58that's been the case
18:59in personal spirit
19:00for a very long time.
19:02Number 31.
19:03Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau
19:05Various
19:06There was before 1966's
19:08The Fortune Cookie,
19:09and then there was after.
19:11The already beloved
19:12Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau's
19:14first connection
19:15led to one of Hollywood's
19:16great acting partnerships,
19:18which included
19:19other Billy Wilder collaborations
19:20like 1974's
19:22The Front Page.
19:23How's that?
19:25Walter,
19:25you'll either get
19:26the Pulitzer Prize
19:27or you'll get a year
19:27in the clink.
19:28You and me both,
19:29we're in this together.
19:29The duo also led
19:31The Odd Couple,
19:31Grumpy Old Men,
19:32and their respective sequels.
19:35Lemmon even directed
19:36Matthau in Koch.
19:37They did more than
19:3810 films together
19:39in 32 years,
19:41underscored by
19:41shared respect,
19:43humor,
19:43and football fandom.
19:44Matthau presented
19:45Lemmon's AFI Life Achievement Award
19:47and died a year before him
19:49almost to the day.
19:51I figured my knowing him
19:52so well was the reason
19:53he always seemed
19:54so familiar up there
19:55on the screen.
19:57It's not.
19:59It's just what he does.
20:00In between,
20:01Lemmon famously said
20:02at his best friend's funeral
20:04that the time
20:05they spent together
20:06was magic.
20:07Number 30,
20:08Paul Newman
20:08and Robert Redford,
20:10Butch Cassidy
20:11and The Sundance Kid
20:12and The Sting.
20:13By the late 1960s,
20:15few actors represented
20:17the new guard in Hollywood
20:18like Paul Newman
20:19and Robert Redford.
20:20Equally at home
20:21in classic westerns
20:22and gritty new genres,
20:24the two became
20:25fast friends
20:26on the set of
20:26Butch Cassidy
20:27and The Sundance Kid.
20:29You can cover me.
20:34You can see I'm right,
20:35can't you?
20:36Newman actually lobbied
20:37for Redford to get the role
20:38because he wanted
20:39to play opposite
20:40an equal talent.
20:42Though they only
20:42worked together twice,
20:44the pair bonded
20:44over their commitment
20:45to their families
20:46and their shared
20:47political beliefs.
20:48Can you get a mob together?
20:50After what happened
20:50to Luther,
20:51I don't think I can get
20:52more than 200, 300 guys.
20:53The two were even
20:54neighbors at one point,
20:55trading pranks
20:56and practical jokes
20:57between movie shoots.
20:59Redford paid
20:59a loving tribute
21:00to his friend
21:01when Newman died
21:02of lung cancer
21:03in 2008.
21:04Does that make you
21:05seven inches taller
21:06than me?
21:06No.
21:07Will you show
21:08that my feet...
21:09You want me to kneel?
21:11Number 29.
21:13Adam Sandler
21:14and Rob Schneider
21:15Various
21:16Hey, buddy,
21:17you mind if I play here?
21:19Oh, sure, man.
21:20I'd love a little
21:20harmonic accompaniment.
21:25Please go away.
21:27I'd rather play alone.
21:30We've heard so much
21:31about the feuds
21:32behind the scenes
21:32at SNL,
21:33but Adam Sandler
21:34and Rob Schneider
21:35forged a very long
21:37friendship
21:37even before
21:38joining that show.
21:39They were actually
21:40neighbors at one point.
21:42Didn't you guys
21:42live together
21:43with Judd Apatow
21:43at one point?
21:44I was across the street.
21:45I did,
21:45he was across the street.
21:46Who got on
21:46Saturday Night Live first?
21:48Oh, you did.
21:49Him and David
21:49got on at the same time,
21:50Yes, we did.
21:51We got on at the same time.
21:52I was left back in LA.
21:54But he came six months later,
21:55which was an eternity
21:56for you.
21:56The two clearly share
21:57a similarly vulgar
21:59sense of humor,
22:00but their friendship
22:00is much deeper
22:01than just the comedy
22:02they make.
22:03After their time
22:04on the legendary
22:04sketch program,
22:06Schneider would go on
22:07to appear in memorable
22:08supporting roles
22:09in many of Sandler's
22:10biggest hits.
22:11In 2023,
22:12Schneider paid loving
22:13tribute to his
22:14longtime friend
22:15and partner
22:16when Sandler received
22:17the Kennedy Center's
22:18Mark Twain Prize
22:19for American humor.
22:30Number 28.
22:31Natasha Lyonne
22:32and Clea Duvall.
22:34But I'm a cheerleader.
22:35I'm not supposed
22:36to like you.
22:41But?
22:46I'm gonna do that again.
22:48Unlike a lot of actors
22:49on this list,
22:50these two were besties
22:51before they ever
22:52shared the screen together.
22:53The only reason
22:54they ended up
22:55in the LGBTQIA plus
22:57themed cult classic
22:58But I'm a cheerleader
22:59together
23:00is because Lyonne
23:01was visiting Duvall,
23:02who was already cast
23:03and saw the script.
23:05Playing lovers
23:06was odd for the two,
23:07but it didn't derail
23:08their great friendship.
23:10We're one movie away.
23:12She promised
23:13on the third movie.
23:14She said,
23:15as soon as we hit 60,
23:16I'm all yours, baby.
23:18And I believe it.
23:19The two have remained
23:20friends and collaborators,
23:22frequently working together
23:23on screen and off.
23:25From acting
23:26in each other's projects
23:27to being each other's
23:28creative sound boards,
23:29they've come a long way
23:30from their days
23:31as young working actors.
23:32You have somebody
23:33who has, you know,
23:35immediate access
23:36and like total trust
23:37and real love there,
23:39so it kind of heightens it
23:41to being, you know,
23:42beyond just a work experience.
23:44Number 27,
23:45Channing Tatum
23:46and Jonah Hill.
23:47Various.
23:48That would be
23:49a covalent bond, brother.
23:50That's when two atoms,
23:52they share electrons.
23:53You see, they both need
23:54what the other one has.
23:55That makes them stick together.
23:57Are you saying
23:57we're covalent bonds?
23:59What?
23:59No.
24:01We're not atoms, dude.
24:02The bromance started
24:03on the set of 21 Jump Street,
24:05but it's since developed
24:06into a real
24:07and deep friendship.
24:08Channing Tatum's ex,
24:10Jenna Dewan,
24:11even joked that she felt
24:12like their third wheel.
24:13Tatum and Hill
24:14went on to co-star
24:15in more comedies
24:16and their friendship
24:17was always a highlight
24:18of any press tour.
24:19I literally just,
24:20I don't know,
24:20I can hang out
24:21with the dude all the time.
24:22We have a great time together
24:24and love spending time together,
24:25so that naturally
24:27is a joyous thing,
24:28which breeds laughter.
24:30Yeah.
24:30The two have been
24:31gassing each other up
24:32on social media ever since.
24:34There's clearly
24:34a brotherly bond
24:35between the two,
24:36with all the fun
24:37and painful parts
24:38of having a close sibling.
24:39What's a little physical torture
24:41between best pals?
24:42What is it he does to you?
24:43Oh!
24:44What does he do?
24:46What is that?
24:47You're witnessing it.
24:48Number 26.
24:49Owen Wilson
24:50and Ben Stiller
24:51Various
24:51They starred together
24:53in several hits
24:54and cult comedies
24:55throughout the 1990s
24:56and 2000s,
24:57but Ben Stiller
24:58and Owen Wilson
24:59began as admirers
25:01of each other's work.
25:02I didn't want to be a model.
25:07I freaking worship you, man.
25:10Stiller was a fan
25:10of the movie Bottle Rocket,
25:12which Wilson starred in
25:13and co-wrote
25:14with Wes Anderson.
25:15They'd go on
25:16to star together
25:17in Anderson's
25:17The Royal Tenenbaums.
25:19I need help.
25:23So do I.
25:24Les is known
25:25about their friendship,
25:26as Wilson
25:26is an intensely
25:27private person.
25:28However,
25:29we've enjoyed
25:30the little glimpses
25:30we've gotten
25:31over the years.
25:32The two have
25:32an easy connection
25:33that allows them
25:34to play off
25:35of each other,
25:35whether it's
25:36in the movies
25:36or on a late night couch.
25:38Do you plan
25:39on working together
25:39again on some
25:40new projects?
25:41Well, actually,
25:42yes.
25:43In fact,
25:44we haven't really
25:44talked about this
25:45anywhere,
25:45and I can say it
25:46here for the first time.
25:47We've actually signed
25:47an exclusive contract
25:48only work together
25:49from now on
25:50in the future.
25:51Number 25.
25:52George Clooney
25:53and Julia Roberts.
25:55Various.
25:56Are you still here?
25:56Uh-huh.
25:57Yeah.
25:57Then I will say
26:00elegant.
26:02Hmm.
26:03And Julia,
26:04this is for you.
26:04The second thing
26:05that comes to mind.
26:09I wasn't finished.
26:11It has to be said,
26:12George Clooney
26:13and Julia Roberts
26:14could each have chemistry
26:15with a crumpled
26:16paper bag,
26:17so it's no wonder
26:18they light up
26:18the screen together.
26:20Meeting on the set
26:20of Ocean's Eleven,
26:22the two may have
26:22played exes,
26:23but they immediately
26:24hit it off.
26:26I'm going to make
26:27this quick.
26:29I came here for you.
26:32When I get on
26:33with my life,
26:34I want you with me.
26:35Their relationship
26:36became much deeper
26:37than the playful one
26:38they'd established
26:38on the set of Ocean's,
26:40and she would later
26:40say he was very
26:41caring of her
26:42when she was
26:43pregnant with twins.
26:44Since then,
26:45they've made
26:45more movies together
26:46and always take
26:47the opportunity
26:48to praise and
26:49support each other
26:50in their professional
26:50and personal lives.
26:52I hate him.
26:53I think he's still
26:53secretly in love
26:54with me,
26:54but that's a different...
26:55She spends a lot
26:55of time swooning over me.
26:57He's like,
26:58oh, God,
26:59I love her so much.
27:00What can I do
27:01to get her back?
27:03There's a lot of,
27:03she couldn't have
27:04enough of me
27:05and she kept chasing
27:06me around a lot.
27:07Number 24,
27:08Jennifer Aniston
27:09and Paul Rudd,
27:10the object of my affection
27:12and wanderlust.
27:13The Friends actress
27:14may have been one half
27:16of the most famous
27:17Hollywood pairings
27:18of all time,
27:18but a former co-star
27:20may have been
27:20in the picture
27:21before that.
27:22Phoebe,
27:23Joey,
27:24Ross,
27:26Monica,
27:27Chandler.
27:30And Mike,
27:31Mike!
27:32Oh, yeah, Mike!
27:33After starring together
27:34in the object of my affection,
27:36Jennifer Aniston
27:37was rumored
27:37to have briefly dated
27:38Paul Rudd.
27:39The two have been
27:40friends ever since,
27:41starring in several episodes
27:42of Friends Together
27:43and in the 2012 comedy
27:45Wanderlust.
27:46Father hand,
27:47hand,
27:48pretty mama!
27:49Father hand,
27:50hand,
27:51keep the father hand,
27:52pretty mama!
27:53When Rudd was named
27:54People's Sexiest Man Alive
27:55in 2021,
27:57Aniston was one of the first
27:58to congratulate him
27:59on his award
28:00and his seeming
28:01agelessness.
28:02It's fitting.
28:03If Rudd somehow stumbled
28:04onto the secret
28:05of eternal youth,
28:06it looks like he must have
28:07shared it with Aniston.
28:09It's kind of great.
28:09And you also get
28:11a really cool wardrobe.
28:13You do?
28:14You do.
28:14Number 23,
28:16Sandra Bullock
28:16and George Clooney,
28:18Gravity.
28:18Have I joined the fun?
28:20Certainly.
28:21How you feeling?
28:23I got your wall
28:24while it's being tumbled right.
28:26They played fellow astronauts
28:27in the 2013 sci-fi thriller,
28:29but they've known each other
28:30a lot longer than that.
28:32In her Oscar speech,
28:34Bullock recounted
28:34how George Clooney
28:35threw her in a pool once.
28:37We're sure he did it
28:38in an incredibly charming way.
28:40These two have known each other
28:41so long
28:42that there's no pretense.
28:43Maybe that's why
28:44so many people
28:45want them to get together.
28:46I like the fact
28:47that we have a history
28:48and an intimacy
28:49that goes beyond,
28:50you know,
28:51what might sell a magazine,
28:52you know,
28:52in that,
28:53you know,
28:54if I need something
28:55or I need to have a conversation,
28:57I know there's going to be
28:58a response and some help.
28:59Like Bullock says,
29:00she and Clooney
29:01have such a good friendship
29:02that her relationship
29:03would just mess all that up.
29:04Besides,
29:05she knows too much
29:06about his adolescent antics
29:08to ever see him
29:09as anything other
29:10than an annoying big brother.
29:11I see women
29:12who look at George
29:12and they just fall apart
29:14and I'm like,
29:14what's happened to her?
29:15I'm like,
29:15oh, that's right.
29:16It's George.
29:17Number 22,
29:19Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin.
29:219 to 5,
29:2280 for Brady
29:23and moving on.
29:25Courageous.
29:26Fantastic.
29:28Top of the world.
29:29Brilliant.
29:31Fabulous.
29:32Funny.
29:33They're both Hollywood giants,
29:34but they rose through the ranks
29:36in very different ways.
29:37Lily Tomlin got her start
29:39in comedy and theater,
29:40while Jane Fonda
29:41was the daughter
29:42of a screen legend
29:43who went out of her way
29:44to carve a place for herself
29:45in boundary-pushing movies.
29:47Their talents combined
29:48in the 1980 workplace comedy
29:509 to 5.
29:51We did it.
29:52We actually pulled it off
29:53and we didn't panic.
29:56And Tinsworthy loved what we did.
29:58Yeah, everything except
29:59that part about the money.
30:00What are we going to do about that?
30:02Hey, we've come this far,
30:04haven't we?
30:04This is just the beginning.
30:06Their careers brought them together
30:07nearly 40 years later on TV
30:09and again on the big screen
30:11in 2023's 80 for Brady
30:13and moving on.
30:14Through the years,
30:15they've been a source
30:16of support for each other,
30:17from award ceremonies
30:19to climate change protests.
30:20Working alongside somebody
30:22who is a genuine genius.
30:25I mean, she...
30:30That's not the genius.
30:32That's exactly right.
30:33Yeah.
30:33Yeah.
30:33I mean, nobody...
30:34There's nobody like her.
30:35Number 21.
30:37Eugene Levy and Catherine O'Hara
30:39Various
30:40Okay, I guess it's time
30:41to play the game.
30:42Tom, you know how we play?
30:43Cheo!
30:44Not yet, Tom.
30:45From their early days on SCTV
30:47to their film roles,
30:48especially in the movies
30:49of Christopher Guest,
30:51Eugene Levy and Catherine O'Hara
30:52have always just fit together.
30:54They even sound great singing together.
30:56Oh, when the veil of dreams
31:01has lifted
31:03And the fairy tales
31:05have all been told
31:08It would be depressing
31:09if their relationship
31:10didn't carry on off-screen, too.
31:12Luckily for us, it does.
31:14Their collaborations are made better
31:16because of how simpatico they are.
31:18I mean, if we went 15 seconds,
31:19you know, without a laugh,
31:21something...
31:22Unlike tonight.
31:25Yeah, we've gotten used to it.
31:26You're being a deep panic.
31:27Something was wrong.
31:28O'Hara sang Levy's praises,
31:30calling him the sweetest man
31:32in the world.
31:33She was even present
31:34at the unveiling of his star
31:35on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
31:37If laughter is the most attractive trait,
31:39it's no wonder these two
31:41went on a date or two
31:42back in the day.
31:43But that's ancient history.
31:44Thank goodness he's a gentleman,
31:46has always been a gentleman,
31:47and we get to have
31:48this working relationship
31:49because we didn't go anywhere.
31:51Number 20.
31:52Leonardo DiCaprio
31:53and Kate Winslet
31:54Titanic and Revolutionary Road.
31:57Teach me to ride like a man.
31:59And chew tobacco like a man.
32:02And spit like a man.
32:04What, they didn't teach you
32:05that in finishing school?
32:06No.
32:07The actors who gave the world
32:09Jack and Rose
32:10are electric on screen.
32:11Their chemistry continued
32:13off the set,
32:14albeit as good friends.
32:15They might not have ended up
32:16a couple by the end
32:17of making Titanic,
32:18but anyone who goes
32:19through the hardship
32:20of making a James Cameron movie
32:22is probably bonded for life.
32:23I'll never let go.
32:25I promise.
32:28Despite their different lives
32:29and busy schedules,
32:31Winslet said they always
32:32make time for a phone call.
32:33They were even each other's dates
32:34for the 2016 Academy Awards,
32:36where both were nominated
32:38for separate movies.
32:39It was the fateful night
32:40that DiCaprio
32:41finally won his Oscar.
32:42He's such a lovely person
32:44and that people really
32:45not only admire him,
32:46but also really like him
32:48and respect him.
32:49And I feel quite proud of that.
32:52You know, it's, um,
32:53yeah, it's lovely.
32:54I love that.
32:55I keep getting emotional
32:55when I talk about Leo.
32:56Number 19.
32:57Ben Platt and Skylar Astin.
32:59The Pitch Perfect franchise.
33:01I'm gonna go introduce myself.
33:03Everybody be cool.
33:04It's just a normal day.
33:05Not only were Platt and Astin
33:06in the first two successful
33:08Pitch Perfect films together,
33:10they're together in life too
33:11as bros,
33:12with Astin referring to Platt
33:14as a roomie for life on Instagram.
33:16They may have played college roommates,
33:18but their kinship is for real.
33:20I've got the magic in me.
33:25For instance,
33:26Platt was present at Astin's wedding.
33:28Meanwhile, Astin and his then-wife,
33:31fellow Pitch Perfect co-star Anna Camp,
33:33who's also real-life BFFs
33:35with one of her co-stars,
33:37Brittany Snow,
33:37visited Platt while he was performing
33:39on Broadway in Dear Evan Hansen in 2016.
33:43Now give me some love, love, love, love, love.
33:46What are you gonna see?
33:48Whoa, whoa, whoa, gonna get you down.
33:51They may not be performing on screen
33:53at the moment,
33:54but you can bet that Ben Platt
33:55and Skylar Astin kept their on-screen friendship
33:58off-screen as well.
34:00Well, you know me well.
34:01Like, could you maybe help?
34:02You do.
34:03You could be like,
34:04what are you gonna do with that?
34:05Number 18.
34:06Jada Pinkett Smith and Queen Latifah
34:08Set It Off and Girls Trip
34:10Pinkett Smith met her real-world BFF
34:13back in Baltimore when she was 15
34:14and snuck into a club
34:16to see an up-and-coming 17-year-old Latifah perform.
34:20She was blown away.
34:21You're right about that.
34:23The two would later star in the 1996 hit
34:26Set It Off,
34:27and while they wouldn't work together again
34:28for 21 years,
34:30they maintained a tight friendship
34:31in between projects.
34:33Latifah told People
34:34that she and Jada can, quote,
34:36hold whole conversations
34:37without really saying anything,
34:39but still saying a lot.
34:41That's a deep connection
34:42that friends could only probably have
34:44after 30-odd years of closeness.
34:46Oh, I appreciate that.
34:48That's so much.
34:48I was so gonna say
34:49flossy-possy, flossy-possy.
34:51Here's hoping we don't have to wait
34:52another 21 years in between films
34:54to see these two women together again.
34:57Number 17.
34:58Sebastian Stan and Anthony Mackie.
35:01The Marvel Cinematic Universe.
35:06These two co-stars met on the set
35:08of Captain America The Winter Soldier
35:10and were not immediate BFFs,
35:12but spending time together
35:13on press tours for their MCU films
35:16seems to have changed that.
35:17And now, with several more films
35:19under their respective belts,
35:21as well as the Disney Plus series
35:22The Falcon and The Winter Soldier,
35:24it's easy to spot the closeness
35:25between Falcon and Bucky Barnes.
35:27That little girl kicked your ass.
35:29In an attempt to get Sebastian out of New York
35:32during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020,
35:35Mackie even tried convincing Stan
35:36to join him in New Orleans.
35:38No one knows what the MCU holds
35:40for their characters just yet,
35:42but off-camera,
35:43their bromance shows no signs of slowing.
35:45Always, always remember number one.
35:49But always kind of keep in mind number two.
35:52Number 16.
35:53Simon Pegg and Nick Frost.
35:55Various.
35:56Nick Frost met buddy and collaborator
35:58Simon Pegg when Frost was a waiter
36:00at a restaurant in London.
36:02The two became friends
36:03and eventual roommates
36:04before going on to work together
36:05in projects like the box office hit
36:07Shaun of the Dead.
36:12Since their breakout,
36:13the two have continued to stay together
36:15both on and off-screen,
36:17such as in the Three Flavors Cornetto trilogy
36:19and the sci-fi comedy Paul.
36:21Why are we holding hands?
36:22So we look like a family.
36:24Like any close relationship,
36:25these two funny men have had
36:27their share of drama and fights.
36:29Simon Pegg has stated that
36:30while they may quarrel,
36:31they always end up back together again,
36:33just like in any family.
36:35And this family not only plays
36:36and fights together.
36:38They clearly know how to work together too,
36:40through thick and thin.
36:41Do not go to the Winchester.
36:43The pub is out.
36:44Even if it's shut?
36:45Especially if it's closed.
36:47Remember what happened the last time?
36:49Number 15.
36:50Michael Fassbender and James McAvoy.
36:53The X-Men Beginnings franchise.
36:55Deemed the new Ian McKellen
36:56and Patrick Stewart,
36:57who we'll get to later,
36:59these two actors share more
37:00than just the former's characters.
37:02Though they first worked together
37:03on the Band of Brothers miniseries,
37:05their bromance as we know it
37:07began with the world of the X-Men.
37:09Remember the point between rage
37:11and serenity.
37:13The two mutant besties
37:14even have a combined nickname,
37:16McFassy.
37:17Psychic Charles.
37:19You can convince me to do anything.
37:21Watch any interview the two have given
37:23and you'll see the great chemistry
37:24that translates off screen.
37:26What with McAvoy easily cracking
37:28Fassbender up with every chance he gets.
37:30Remember that part of you
37:31in San Diego at Comic-Con?
37:33Didn't you knock someone out there?
37:34Sure.
37:36Here's hoping James and Michael
37:38also continue their bond
37:39well past their current ages
37:41and into their 80s and beyond.
37:43Goodbye, old friend.
37:47Goodbye, Eric.
37:49Number 14.
37:50Matthew McConaughey and Woody Harrelson.
37:53Various.
37:53The kinship of our next duo of BFFs
37:56can be described as brother
37:57from another mother,
37:58which McConaughey himself
37:59has called them on Instagram.
38:01McConaughey beat out Harrelson
38:03for his breakout role
38:04in A Time to Kill,
38:05only to end up playing his brother
38:07in Ed TV a few years later.
38:09Oh, oh, is that the way it is, huh, bro?
38:11Maybe it was their alleged shared love
38:13of recreational activities,
38:14but the duo have always seemed tight
38:17well beyond just that.
38:18You both seem like you enjoy having fun.
38:21Yeah, well, there we go.
38:22Some pictures to prove it.
38:23Matthew has even publicly admitted
38:25that he's gone to the woodman
38:26with personal problems in the past.
38:28Whether it's the lesser-known surfer dude
38:30or HBO's True Detective,
38:32these two cool characters
38:33are all right, all right, all right.
38:36All right, all right, all right.
38:39Number 13.
38:41Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning.
38:43The Twilight Saga and The Runaways.
38:45These two ladies have appeared
38:46in a few films together
38:48and initially met on a short film
38:49back in 2007.
38:51You think anybody's going to
38:52take us seriously?
38:54It's just publicity.
38:55It helps everybody.
38:56But according to Fanning,
38:57the first introduction wasn't special enough
38:59to call it their real first meeting.
39:01It wasn't until the two were
39:03on the Twilight Saga New Moon set
39:05that their bond truly formed
39:06in what Dakota calls
39:08their chosen moment of meeting.
39:10She wants to be.
39:12And so she will be.
39:13We're dessert.
39:14It was while she introduced
39:15friend Kristen Stewart
39:17at Elle's Women in Hollywood
39:18Awards ceremony in 2016
39:20that the two publicly professed
39:22their love and respect
39:23for one another.
39:23She finds what is most important
39:25and carves into it
39:26like a building into the sky.
39:30Fanning confessed Stewart
39:31had been there to hold her hair back,
39:33helped her through heartbreak,
39:35while Stewart responded to it all
39:37with, oh my God, dude,
39:38I love you so much.
39:39That's BFF love.
39:41Okay, that's it.
39:42You're done.
39:43I love you, man.
39:44Number 12.
39:45Reese Witherspoon and Mindy Kaling.
39:47A Wrinkle in Time.
39:48After working together
39:50in A Wrinkle in Time,
39:51Kaling and Witherspoon
39:52have since become fast friends.
39:53Well, I knew you could do it all along.
39:56I never doubted you for a second.
39:58Kaling, a parent herself,
40:00doesn't hold back
40:00when she gushes about
40:01how blown away she is
40:03by Reese's mom abilities.
40:04We think your father
40:05tested here.
40:07Don't be shy.
40:09Go ahead, look around.
40:10Reese, in turn,
40:11has gotten her pal Mindy
40:12involved in Legally Blonde 3,
40:13with Kaling co-writing
40:15the screenplay.
40:16I think she's got
40:16a lot of potential.
40:17These two Hollywood powerhouses
40:19send gifts to one another
40:20and have even been known
40:21to hang out together
40:22at family-friendly places
40:23like Disneyland.
40:24I actually like this.
40:25I like pumping gas.
40:27I'd be like, go.
40:27I gotta just say,
40:29I wouldn't know what to do.
40:31It's clear that Reese and Mindy
40:33know how to be more
40:34than just colleagues.
40:35They know how to be friends, too.
40:37Number 11.
40:38Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart.
40:39The Jumanji franchise
40:41and Central Intelligence.
40:42Whoa, back up, man.
40:44Constantly at each other's throats,
40:46Kevin Hart and Dwayne
40:47The Rock Johnson
40:48attack in such
40:49hysterically warm ways
40:50that you can't help
40:51but feel the love
40:52between them.
40:52Oh, you think because you,
40:53you what, 6'4", 6'5",
40:55270 pounds of pure muscle,
40:57I'm supposed to be afraid of you?
40:58Is that what you think?
41:01Maybe.
41:02But if the sarcasm
41:03doesn't show you
41:04just how close they are,
41:05just listen to The Rock
41:06when he says Hart's
41:07definitely one of my best friends
41:08on Jimmy Kimmel Live.
41:09You know, he had a tough year
41:10and I'm so happy he's back
41:12and he's in the game
41:13and he's feeling good
41:14and very resilient.
41:15The two have teamed up
41:16on multiple occasions
41:17with hilarious Hart
41:19especially playing well
41:20off The Rock's
41:21Straight Man.
41:22What's that?
41:22What's going on?
41:22What's going on?
41:23I'm a hugger.
41:25Whether it's Dwayne
41:26honoring Kevin with a star
41:27on the Hollywood Walk of Fame,
41:28jokingly competing
41:29for attention on Instagram,
41:31or starring together
41:32in a Jumanji film,
41:33their partnership works wonders
41:34on screen and off.
41:36Plain and simple,
41:37they're a lot of fun to watch.
41:39Are you talking to my camel?
41:40Yes, I'm talking to the camel.
41:41And he can tell
41:42that you're a pain in the ass.
41:45Number 10.
41:46Penelope Cruz and Salma Hayek.
41:48Bandidas.
41:49Friends since 2001,
41:50Cruz and Hayek
41:51still have each other's backs today.
41:53Do you work for us,
41:54Maria Alvarez?
41:55No, I do not work for you.
41:57Then what are you doing here?
41:58I have business with your father.
42:00Cruz starred in 2006's
42:02Bandidas with Hayek
42:03and more importantly,
42:04was there when Hayek
42:05got married in 2009.
42:07What kind of a bride
42:08smells like a horse
42:09and kisses like a chicken
42:10bucking corn?
42:11They've openly praised
42:12one another's work
42:13and when both were
42:14on a precarious flight together,
42:16Cruz reportedly remarked
42:17that she would have been okay
42:18if this was her last flight
42:19as she was with her best friend.
42:21And it was an emergency landing
42:22with a deep restoration
42:24of cabin,
42:25like a very serious,
42:26serious thing
42:27and we have to land somewhere else.
42:29Dark but endearing.
42:30Cruz and Hayek
42:31are close enough
42:32to have cute,
42:33food-based nicknames
42:34for each other
42:34as well as a bond
42:35that both maintain
42:36is like a firm sisterhood
42:38and have even called
42:39each other their heroes.
42:41Related to Penelope Cruz.
42:42Not by blood,
42:44but she is like a sister to me.
42:47Number nine,
42:47Cameron Diaz
42:48and Drew Barrymore,
42:49Charlie's Angels.
42:50We were both like LA kids,
42:52you know,
42:52I worked in a coffee house.
42:54She was a model
42:55and I like served her coffee
42:58and we had like mutual friends.
42:59Though they first met
43:00in the late 80s,
43:01these two only started getting close
43:03when Barrymore approached Diaz
43:05about co-starring
43:06in 2000's Charlie's Angels
43:07and the pair have been
43:08good pals ever since.
43:10I'm gonna go deal with Knox.
43:11I'm gonna go bring our Bosley back.
43:13Drew and Cameron
43:14have been there
43:14for each other's marriages
43:15and beyond
43:16and these two maintain
43:17that they're more like family
43:19than just friends
43:19as evidenced
43:20in their social media posts.
43:22Barrymore has even gone so far
43:24as to say that Diaz
43:25would be the first person she calls
43:27should she ever wind up in jail.
43:28I've been to all your weddings.
43:30Exactly.
43:30To all of them.
43:32Let's hope that doesn't happen
43:33but let's hope there's no slowing down
43:35for these real life angels
43:36in both work and play.
43:37She was always kind.
43:39You know,
43:39someone who looks like that,
43:41they could be,
43:42you know,
43:43have an attitude
43:44and she was the opposite.
43:45She was friendly and goofy
43:46and really nice.

43:50the High School Musical franchise.
43:52These two friends
43:53were already acquainted
43:54before their shared time
43:55in these Disney Channel movies.
43:56What are you doing here?
43:58I'm the new lifeguard.
43:59In fact,
44:00Tisdale and Hudgens met
44:02before their breakout film roles
44:03way back when
44:04at a commercial edition.
44:06Having someone else share
44:07such a unique experience
44:08in the world of stardom
44:09surely helps with
44:10forming bonds for life
44:11and these BFFs
44:13has shared everything
44:14from getting tattoos
44:15to being at each other's weddings
44:16and revamping each other's homes.
44:18How excited are you
44:19to watch her become a bomb
44:20for the first time?
44:21Oh my gosh,
44:22it's so exciting.
44:23I'm just,
44:24I'm so excited
44:25to get back to LA
44:26to sing to her baby.
44:29Things may have really
44:30started with Disney,
44:31but this friendship
44:31has extended well beyond that.
44:34Exes
44:34and the O's
44:37they haunt me.
44:39Number seven,
44:40Brad Pitt
44:40and George Clooney,
44:41the Oceans franchise.
44:43These guys
44:44not only share good looks
44:45and high profile
44:46movie star status,
44:47but also a true friendship
44:48that goes beyond
44:49the silver screen.
44:50I need a reason.
44:52I don't say money.
44:54Why do this?
44:55Why not do it?
44:56While this bromance
44:57reportedly began
44:58during working hours
44:59on 2001's
45:00Oceans 11,
45:01the duo maintains
45:02a friendship
45:02during off hours as well,
45:04with the notorious pranksters
45:05lovingly struggling
45:06to get one up
45:07on the other.
45:08I had stationery
45:09made up
45:09with his name
45:11and then I would
45:12send letters
45:13to other actors
45:14from Brad Pitt.
45:15These pranks
45:16have involved
45:17everything from
45:17the Chippendale dancers
45:19to the police
45:19and even a goat
45:21or maybe a sheep.
45:22They've had some
45:23rocky moments
45:23in their relationship,
45:24like when Pitt
45:25divorced Jennifer Aniston,
45:27which was allegedly
45:27much to Clooney's chagrin.
45:29But they're back
45:30to being friends now,
45:31with Brad saying
45:31he expected roses
45:33from George
45:33for his 2020 SAG Award win.
45:35Is that the kind of thing
45:36he texts you
45:36like a congratulations?
45:37Is it that kind of relationship?
45:39He'll probably send flowers.
45:40He's more of a flowers guy.
45:42Number six,
45:42Chris Hemsworth
45:43and Tom Hiddleston,
45:44the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
45:46They met while filming
45:47Thor back in 2009
45:48and have shared
45:49a friendship ever since.
45:51You can't kill
45:51an entire race.
45:53Why not?
45:55Having both of them
45:56come into fame
45:57at about the same time,
45:58they found that they
45:59had a lot more in common
46:00than just our
46:00on-screen characters did.
46:02Hemsworth has even
46:03called Hiddleston
46:04an honorary Hemsworth,
46:05saying that he's
46:06adopted him as a brother.
46:07We've adopted him.
46:08He's one of the Hemsworths.
46:09He's in it.
46:10We've given him a card,
46:11given him a badge.
46:12I'm like the runt of the litter.
46:14Meanwhile,
46:14Tom publicly thanked Chris
46:16when the former won
46:17an MTV award
46:18for Best Villain.
46:19My brother from
46:19another mother,
46:20Chris Hemsworth.
46:21They not only go
46:22to one another's
46:23red carpet premieres,
46:24but also lovingly
46:25entertain each other
46:26at what could be
46:27stuffy events
46:28if you didn't have
46:28a friend keeping you company.
46:30I've hung out
46:30with his brothers as well.
46:31It's a great time,
46:32I've got to say.
46:33But it's also fun
46:34to see where
46:34he fits into the dynamic.
46:36Number five,
46:37Tina Fey and Amy Poehler.
46:39Various.
46:39Angie?
46:40What?
46:44These two not only
46:45have great chemistry
46:46on screen,
46:46but they clearly
46:47have it off screen as well,
46:49as they've hit it off
46:49since their shared time
46:50on SNL.
46:51Hello,
46:52I'm Amy Poehler.
46:53I'm Tina Fey,
46:54and here are tonight's
46:55top stories.
46:56Since then,
46:56they've starred in
46:57Mean Girls,
46:58Baby Mama,
46:58and Sisters together.
47:00Amazing.
47:01You're crushing it.
47:02And have shown
47:03how well they play
47:04off each other
47:05at the four
47:06Golden Globe ceremonies
47:07they co-hosted.
47:08Look who slithered
47:09back over
47:10to the TV section.
47:12Hi, Julia.
47:13Hi, Julia.
47:15Having met in Chicago
47:17while the two
47:17were studying
47:18improv comedy,
47:19they became fast friends
47:20when they shared
47:21a love of quietly
47:21bashing their instructor
47:22to one another.
47:23Oh,
47:24I got a whole
47:24intricate sewn-in
47:25system under there.
47:26Heck,
47:27these two funny ladies
47:28have even supposedly
47:28planned to marry
47:29their kids off
47:30to one another.
47:31So,
47:31there's that too.
47:32Number four,
47:33Leonardo DiCaprio
47:34and Tobey Maguire.
47:36The Great Gatsby.
47:37I knew you looked familiar.
47:37You're having a good time,
47:38old sport.
47:39the whole thing's incredible.
47:40These two knew each other
47:41well before they started
47:42The Great Gatsby together.
47:43They actually met
47:44as child actors
47:45all the way back
47:46in the 1980s,
47:47having shared time together
47:48at auditions in LA.
47:50See you, Leo.
47:50Bye, Tommy.
47:52Bye, Sarah.
47:53Both mostly raised
47:54by single mothers,
47:55the two guys bonded
47:56almost immediately.
47:57And while they sometimes
47:58auditioned for the same roles,
48:00these friends didn't share
48:01any bitterness.
48:02I missed them a lot today.
48:04As both their fame levels
48:05increased,
48:05Toby and Leo
48:06were known around town
48:07for keeping fast
48:08and hard company,
48:10perhaps not unlike
48:10something you might see
48:11on Entourage.
48:12No, Leo went to Paris
48:13to talk to James Cameron
48:15about some fish movie.
48:17But as they've matured
48:18and toned down
48:19their public profiles,
48:20both DiCaprio
48:21and Maguire
48:21remain close.
48:23You sure you want me to come?
48:25Absolutely,
48:25old sport.
48:27Absolutely.
48:28Number three,
48:29Ian McKellen
48:29and Patrick Stewart.
48:31The X-Men franchise.
48:32Sir Ian and Sir Patrick
48:34have both had long careers
48:35and even appeared together
48:37in a 1977 stage play,
48:39but didn't keep in contact.
48:41I'm looking for hope.
48:44I will bring you hope,
48:46old friend.
48:47In fact,
48:47it wasn't until
48:48slightly more recently,
48:49in 2000's X-Men,
48:51that the two became BFFs.
48:53Their friendship is so tight
48:54that Sir Ian even married
48:55Sir Patrick to his wife
48:56in 2013.
48:57Have you done rather well?
48:59Oh, quite well, yes.
49:01Passed my best now.
49:03Also in the 2010s,
49:04McKellen and Stewart
49:05have been seen
49:05appearing together on stage
49:07in productions like
49:08No Man's Land
49:08and, of course,
49:09via their hysterical
49:11social media posts.
49:12Just because the 2020s
49:13see them both in their 80s
49:15doesn't mean these two nights
49:16can't still laugh at themselves.
49:18And I will always be there,
49:22old friend.
49:23Number two,
49:24Blake Lively,
49:25Amber Tamblyn,
49:26Alexis Bledel,
49:27and America Ferreira,
49:28the Sisterhood of the
49:29Traveling Pants franchise.
49:31Ta-da!
49:32Tibby, you're a babe!
49:34These women all starred together
49:35in 2005's
49:37The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants
49:38and its 2008 sequel,
49:40but their friendship
49:41didn't stop there.
49:42Today,
49:42these four women
49:43are still just as tight
49:44as their on-screen counterparts,
49:46coming together frequently
49:47for huge moments
49:48in their respective lives.
49:49Well, I was lucky.
49:50My first job was with
49:51America Ferreira
49:52and Amber Tamblyn
49:53and Alexis Bledel.
49:55And these women
49:56are role models of mine
49:58to this day.
49:59They've been there
49:59for each other's pregnancies,
50:01weddings,
50:01you name it.
50:02They even get their kids
50:03together for playdates.
50:04We'll be hanging out
50:05and then realize,
50:06oh, we are the
50:08Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants.
50:09And what's more,
50:10there are rumors
50:10that these BFFs
50:11might be coming together
50:12on-screen
50:13for a third installment
50:14of the film series
50:15that kicked off
50:16this true friendship
50:16sometime in the near future.

50:52Who doesn't know
50:53about this classic
50:54Hollywood bromance
50:55that extends
50:55to even before
50:56the pair's breakout
50:57in 1997's
50:59Good Will Hunting
50:59and that garnered
51:00them both Oscars.
51:01The two first met
51:03as kids in Massachusetts
51:04when their moms
51:05apparently introduced them.
51:06And then things
51:07soon got real
51:08for the pair
51:08when Affleck
51:09got Damon
51:10out of a losing fight.
51:11I was like a junior
51:12and he was like a freshman
51:13and he tackled
51:15this kid off of me
51:16and literally
51:18at the risk
51:19of his own life.
51:20In the 2010s,
51:21Matt continued
51:22to be there for Ben
51:23through his public struggles
51:24with substance use disorder.
51:26And it's clear
51:26that his friendship
51:27shows no signs
51:28of slowing down.
51:29See, in the beginning
51:30it was just us and him,
51:31angels and God.
51:33Then he created humans.
