Some stars have had sparks fly on set — even though they played family members on their projects.
Chris Pratt and Emily VanCamp shocked Everwood fans when they started dating after meeting in 2004. At the time, the Marvel star admitted that the reactions to their relationship have been mixed because they played siblings.
“Yeah, we’ve pretty much gotten used to the response of, ‘Ew, that’s weird. That’s creepy,’” he told TV Guide in August 2006. “The people who know us are happy and probably expected it to happen eventually. But yeah, every once in a while we get that one person that’s like, ‘That’s really creepy. You just kissed your sister.’”
The twosome went on to date for nearly three years before calling it quits. Pratt was later married to Anna Faris from 2009 to 2018. They welcomed their son Jack in 2012.
Lauren Graham and Peter Krause also managed to form a connection while playing siblings on Parenthood, which premiered in 2010.
“We couldn’t stop talking,” the Gilmore Girls alum told Good Housekeeping in her January 2017 cover story. “Not about ourselves, but about the world and books and family.”
It didn’t take long for things to become serious between the duo.
“Once we got together, there was no game play[ing],” she explained. “It was like, ‘You like me, and I like you.’ It gave me an understanding of life: This is how things happen, and it’s completely random.”
