As the year draws to a close, we are looking back at some of the most memorable on-screen couples of 2015. While many actors work tirelessly to promote their projects, some have found love on set—or in their significant others’ projects.

This year, moviegoers were treated to some unforgettable on-screen couples. From a fiery pair of lovers in Brooklyn to a pair of best friends in The Intern, here are some of the most popular movie couples from 2015:
In a year that saw some of the most compelling on-screen pairings in recent memory, here is my list of the 10 best on-screen couples from 2015.
This list is based off of pure chemistry, not just from watching the entire film or television series. All I needed was one look, one scene and I knew it. These are the couples that made me stop scrolling through my Twitter feed and actually watch their scenes unfold.
Actors on Actors: Brie Larson & Samuel L. Jackson (Full Video)
1. Alicia Vikander and Domhall Gleeson in Ex Machina – Caleb, an employee at a tech company, is chosen by his CEO to be the human component to a Turing test on an advanced A.I. named Ava. The two grow closer as Caleb begins to question what is real and what isn’t when it comes to Ava’s humanity…or lack thereof.
2. Emilia Clarke and Sam Claflin in Me Before You – After losing her job in a small town, Louisa Clark (Clarke) takes a position caring for Will Traynor (Claflin), a quadriplegic with a rather dark outlook on life after his accident two years prior. As Will starts
The Golden Globes is coming up and the red carpet is pretty much my favorite part of the show. But it’s not just because of the dresses or the cute couples; it’s also because of my love for movies.
As a movie lover, I have a lot of favorite on-screen couples. For example, I love watching The Notebook with my friends because we always laugh about how cheesy the dialogue is. Ryan Gosling gives an excellent performance as Noah Calhoun, but I’d argue that he’s only able to pull it off because of Rachel McAdams’ character Allie Hamilton. Without her, the film would be nothing more than a bunch of shirtless scenes with Ryan Gosling running around in the rain.
Another great on-screen couple from this past year was Shailene Woodley and Theo James in Divergent. One thing that was so great about their relationship was that they showed what true love really means. The two characters were able to show vulnerability and compassion for each other almost right away, even despite being told not to by their respective “factions.” The movie definitely has its fair share of action, but it’s really their relationship that drives the plot forward and makes you want to watch all three movies in one weekend (it’s
When the stars of Trainwreck and The Big Sick met in their Actors on Actors conversation, they spoke candidly about some of the greatest romantic movies. “I just love movies where the couple hates each other,” says Apatow. “They’re screaming at each other and it’s not sexy, but you’re still like, ‘But I want them to get together.’ And then they kiss and it works.”
Apatow says he’s always loved opposing character traits in an on-screen couple like in A Fish Called Wanda. “John Cleese is a starchy lawyer and Jamie Lee Curtis is this crazy thief,” he says. “That’s a great couple. They’re yelling at each other all the time, but you go, ‘But I want that to work out.'”
“When we were doing Up in the Air, George Clooney and Vera Farmiga had a scene where she was yelling at him and berating him for something he did wrong,” remembers Apatow. “And we were editing it together and I kept feeling uncomfortable like this wasn’t working, but I couldn’t put my finger on why. And then my wife was watching and she said, ‘Well there’s no chemistry between them.'”

Actors on Actors: Michael Keaton and Bradley Cooper
The two stars of “Birdman” and “American Sniper” discuss the importance of having a personal connection to the roles they play.
MICHAEL KEATON: I was just saying to my wife how lucky we are to do what we do. In a lot of ways, it is easy. It’s an honor, and it’s cool, but it’s also easy.
BRADLEY COOPER: Yeah, there are definitely things about it that are cool, for sure. And there are things about it that make you feel like you’re contributing in some way. But there’s also a part of me that’s like, “I should be fixing roofs.” [laughter] I’m not quite sure why I get paid to do this. It does feel like a privilege in some weird way — not to sound cheesy or anything. It’s an unbelievable thing that people give us money to do this.
KEATON: So how did you get into this?
COOPER: [laughs] Well, I didn’t really know what I wanted to do growing up. I remember seeing John Malkovich in “Places in the Heart,” though, when I was 16 years old, and
