#7: Kate Blanchett and Brad Pitt

This one is a bit strange when viewed from the outside. While filming The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Brad Pitt was reportedly hesitant about kissing Cate Blanchett. He claimed it was out of respect for his wife, Angelina Jolie, but given his history of romantic scenes in other films while in relationships, some fans weren’t convinced.

This led to speculation that there might have been tension in his marriage to Jolie then. Despite his initial reluctance, Pitt eventually went through with the kiss. The moment he ultimately played a crucial role in developing the on-screen romance between their characters.
