When the Stars Align – 46 On-Screen Romances That Became Real-Life Love Stories
Javier Bardem and Penélope Cruz – On the Set of Jamon, Jamon
When Penelope Cruz bumped into Javier Bardem on the set of her debut film “Jamon, Jamon,” she was just 16. Though the connection between the co-stars was instant, nothing happened at that time. However, on-screen, they were paired as ill-fated lovers in the 1992 romantic tragic-comedy.
Fast forward several years later, and the two creative powerhouses would reunite on-screen for the critically acclaimed “Vicky Cristina Barcelona” in 2008. However, neither of them made the first move. Luckily, a mutual friend hosted a wrap party on the last day of the shoot; the co-stars finally got a chance to connect and thus began an association of a lifetime.
