* ''Film/{{Challengers|2024}}'' follows the complicated relationship between Tashi, a former tennis prodigy-turned-coach, her husband Art, a renowned tennis player, and Patrick, Art's former childhood best friend and Tashi's ex-boyfriend, and how their love triangle threatens to implode again after Patrick and Art end up competing against each other in a low-level challenger event. Patrick and Art both met Tashi when they were teenagers and competed for her affections, and though Patrick dated her for a while in college, Art was the one who ended up marrying her. When they meet again thirteen years later, Art remains a devoted husband to Tashi, though she and Patrick still have significant sexual tension. [[spoiler:It's ultimately left ambiguous as to which man ends up with her.]]

* ''Film/TheHungerGames'' movies play up the barely-even-there-at-all love triangle from the books into a much bigger thing, presumably to cash in on the ''Literature/{{Twilight}}'' fad. The first movie isn't so bad but [[Film/TheHungerGamesCatchingFire the second]] manages to make it seem like Katniss is in a relationship with the guy she never has romantic feelings for in the book, while her relationship with the other boy is very downplayed. Suzanne Collins, who wrote the books, has stated that she didn't plan a love triangle of any kind but her publisher insisted that she add one.
