* While Music/SelenaGomez is a frequent victim of this with her co-stars, none really complete with that of her with Music/DemiLovato following ''Film/PrincessProtectionProgram''. Though there was already many people shipping them beforehand, this movie cemented it. The two at the time best friends shared a lot of LesYay together both in the film and while promoting it. They had a Website/{{YouTube}} channel together at one point, both were on ''Series/BarneyAndFriends'', and have known each other since they were kids. The two's song [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=JawYcBuOPts One and the Same]] also didn't help matters. Some fans have also speculated that Demi's song [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NBa-KlRYhI Stop The World]] which they introduced as about "being in love with someone you're not supposed to be in love with", was written about Selena. The pairing still continues to have a following years later.

* ''Film/{{Titanic 1997}}'' fans, [[EveryoneCanSeeIt and everyone else,]] continue to ship Creator/LeonardoDiCaprio and Creator/KateWinslet, even though Leo's been with various other women since and Kate is married with three children. Of course, Kate professing her 13-year love for Leo ''THEN'' thanking her husband during the 2009 Golden Globes before the audience, Leo giving her a ring with a secret inscription carved inside as a present, and Kate's failing marriage with director Creator/SamMendes after shooting ''Film/RevolutionaryRoad'' with Leo does NOT help matters. The actors themselves are pretty adamant that at this point they're LikeBrotherAndSister, and Leonardo is considered a HonoraryUncle by Kate's kids. Still, having such an incredibly beautiful friendship for over two decades, there’s a reason why them beaming at each other is this page’s picture.

** Creator/TomHolland gets shipped a lot with his fellow MCU actors, with most of this coming from his ''Franchise/SpiderMan'' films due to his close friendships with his co-stars there. ''Film/SpiderManHomecoming'' fans who shipped Peter with MJ started to ship Tom with Creator/{{Zendaya}}, due to their on-screen chemistry, though they have since confirmed that they are actually dating. During the lead-up to ''Film/SpiderManFarFromHome'', a vocal portion of the fanbase started to ship Tom with Creator/JakeGyllenhaal, despite their almost twenty-year age difference. This was mostly due to the two loving to joke about their friendship, such as describing their first meeting as something out of ''Film/Titanic1997'', or Tom joking that they were already married during the premiere. That is not even getting into the small, but dedicated group of Starker shippers who ship him with Creator/RobertDowneyJr.

** Creator/KristenStewart and Creator/RobertPattinson were subject to this, though there may actually be precedent for it. Rumor has it that Pattinson only auditioned for the role of Edward Cullen in the first place so he'd have an excuse to hit on Stewart. This plan backfired once ''Literature/{{Twilight}}'' fans [[CelebrityIsOverrated recognized him in public]]. It's safe to say that Pattinson and Stewart were officially together for a time.

* Creator/JenniferLawrence and Creator/JoshHutcherson got their own fanbase after playing [[StarCrossedLovers Katniss and Peeta]] in ''Film/TheHungerGames''. During filming of ''Catching Fire'', the second film in the series, another shipper base grew around Hutcherson and Sam Claflin, who plays Finnick Odair. Fuel was added to that fire when Claflin talked in an interview about the scene where [[spoiler:Finnick gives Peeta CPR]] and said "My mouth touching his was a beautiful moment. It'll live with me for the rest of my life. We're meant to be together." Nor did it help when Jennifer Lawrence commented on the bromance and called it "annoying".

* A lot of ''Film/PowerRangers2017'' fans have take to shipping Creator/NaomiScott (Kimberly) and Becky G (Trini) together due to the pair's on-screen chemistry and real life friendship. There is a surprisingly dedicated fanbase for the pairing on Tumblr, which even gave them their own PortmanteauCoupleName Beaomi, and a good number of fan vids for them online. Even the facts that both are in real life relationships (Naomi is married to Jordan Spence and Becky G is dating Sebastian Lletget) and by most accounts appear to be straight, does not deter their shippers in the slightest.

This is despite the fact that both actors are straight and Egerton being in a committed relationship in real life.

Unfortunately, this has led to a small minority of fans harassing both Egerton's girlfriend and Madden's roommate, Brandon Flynn.

!!Live-Action Films:
* Creator/JosephGordonLevitt and Creator/ZooeyDeschanel from ''Film/FiveHundredDaysOfSummer'', so very very much. Fans will not stop about how good their onscreen chemistry was, they did a ukelele duet for a [=YouTube=] video and Creator/EllenDeGeneres has told Gordon-Levitt that he and Deschanel would make a good couple. However, Deschanel was engaged to musician Ben Gibbard at the time of filming, though they have since married and divorced. According to someone in the know, they actually did briefly date a long time ago. Gordon-Levitt seems to be pretty quiet about his romantic relationships, though, so you won't find it in the news. And anyway, he currently has a girlfriend.
* ''Film/Aladdin2019'': There are many "cute and funny moments" videos on [=YouTube=] between Creator/MenaMassoud and Creator/NaomiScott, despite the fact that the latter is married. Which some comments find it is "too bad".
* ''Film/TheAmazingSpiderManSeries'' had Creator/AndrewGarfield and Creator/EmmaStone being shipped by the press as well. At the time, they were dating.
* Creator/HumphreyBogart did fall in love with and marry his frequent costar Creator/LaurenBacall. Their chemistry was so potent that studio execs recut ''Film/TheBigSleep'' to include more scenes of them together. They stayed together until the end of his life.
* UsefulNotes/{{Bollywood}} has created so many well-known 'jodis' beloved by fans all over the world:
** Creator/{{Shah Rukh Khan}} and Kajol are, to this day, one of the most popular couples in Bollywood, starting right from when they starred in ''Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge'' together. It also helped that they starred together in other big hit films like ''Kuch Kuch Hota Hai'' and ''Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham...'' as mutual love interests as well.
** Creator/{{Aishwarya Rai}} and Creator/{{Hrithik Roshan}} are another popular on-screen couple. The fact that Rai is considered the most beautiful woman in the world and Roshan a man with eyes similar to hers hasn't affected their popularity, and their chemistry in films like ''Guzaarish'', ''Jodha Akbar'', and ''Dhoom 2'' has contributed to many fans shipping them to this day.
* A lot of ''Film/CampRock'' fans shipped Music/DemiLovato and Music/JoeJonas, who played OfficialCouple Mitchie and Shane, after the first movie came out. This was helped by the fact that the two ended up dating briefly in 2010. Though they have broken up since, their continued friendship in real life, and them being constantly willing to sing their duets from the films, has helped the ship continue to have a following years later.
* This happens quite often with LauncherOfAThousandShips Creator/CateBlanchett. Her large [[LGBTFanbase lesbian fanbase]] simply love shipping her with any female co-stars that she has chemistry with. It started with Creator/RooneyMara after ''Film/{{Carol}}'' and has since been taken UpToEleven with Creator/SandraBullock after the release of ''Film/OceansEight''. Also, Creator/SarahPaulson to a slightly lesser extent.
* Because their chemistry was so natural in ''Film/{{Casablanca}}'', Creator/HumphreyBogart's then-wife was certain he was having an affair with Creator/IngridBergman. As the story goes, however, the two only met once off the set to have lunch and discuss their issues with the script (both were unhappy with the "unrealistic dialogue").
* ''Literature/TheChroniclesOfNarnia'' fandom:
** Shipping Creator/WilliamMoseley and Creator/AnnaPopplewell is one way some fans get around the BrotherSisterIncest problem of {{shipping}} their characters.
** The same for Creator/SkandarKeynes and Creator/GeorgieHenley (commonly known as [[PortmanteauCoupleName Skangie]]), who play Edmund and Lucy Pevensie, a pairing whose number of fans increased dramatically since [[Film/TheVoyageOfTheDawnTreader the third movie]] and [[http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lgqdkqgZ4E1qgnixfo1_500.jpg their growth spurts]]. It's made worse with the fact that it's implied ''[[CastIncest Georgie actually had a crush on Skandar]]'' in their earlier years, especially in the ''Georgie Loves Skandar'' audio commentary.
* ''Film/TheConjuringUniverse'': Creator/PatrickWilson and Creator/VeraFarmiga, who play the adorably {{happily married}} Ed and Lorraine Warren in the franchise, are shipped by ''a lot'' of people thanks to their phenomenal onscreen chemistry and strong real-life friendship, with many, many youtube videos and comments that they should totally get married -- their real-life marriages to other people notwithstanding. They are, however, absolutely ''adorable'' in interviews together, and have freely admitted that not only do they love working together, they are genuinely very close with each other and each other's families offscreen.[[note]]Somewhat ironically, the two first met ''before'' they were cast as Ed and Lorraine because Farmiga became close friends with Wilson's wife Dagmara Dominczyk when they worked together on Farmiga's directorial debut ''Higher Ground''.[[/note]]

In a cast interview, she said that she and Creator/AmyAdams had become close during the production of ''Dawn of Justice'', even having a family sleepover with their children. Due to her still developing grasp of English, Gadot said she had slept with Adams, raising a few eyebrows from the other actors.
** ''Film/{{Wonder Woman|2017}}'s'' Creator/GalGadot and Creator/ChrisPine get this a lot due to an almost ''unbearably'' adorable [[https://giphy.com/gifs/chris-pine-gal-gadot-longing-3og0IMVr5foNWRXQbe look]] she gave him during an interview.
* According to a (dwindling) [[GuyOnGuyIsHot subset]] of Creator/OrlandoBloom's fans, he has had a torrid affair with just about every male co-star he has ever appeared with. Not surprisingly, his female co-stars haven't enjoyed the same speculation with the exception of Creator/KirstenDunst, who he co-starred with in ''Film/{{Elizabethtown}}''. Even the tabloid media jumped on the "Blunst" bandwagon.
* Creator/FredAstaire and Creator/GingerRogers were prone to this (and in some cases, still are long after their deaths), due to the ten musicals they starred in together (not helpful in that Ginger is often the only woman remembered as Fred's dance partner). Shippers of the time constantly [[https://78.media.tumblr.com/a8d4f765983ebbaaabd3359bbc4183fc/tumblr_mtew5fvAfi1siaf6jo1_500.jpg wrote letters]] [[https://78.media.tumblr.com/d91eb0068e079af1c558cc0a62d078c7/tumblr_mtew5fvAfi1siaf6jo2_500.jpg to gossip magazines]] about how much they wanted the two of them to be together and/or even kiss (however, Fred and Ginger did have one kiss scene a movie). Ironically, the two of them ''had'' dated years before they were famous movie stars but continued to be friends for the rest of their lives.
* ''Film/HarryPotter'' {{fandom}}:
** Certain people ship Creator/DanielRadcliffe and Creator/EmmaWatson. A lot of this was inspired by them both preferring [[FanPreferredCouple Harry and Hermione]] over their respective characters' canon couplings.
** Fans also ship Emma and Creator/TomFelton ("Feltson"). Emma has admitted to having a crush on Tom when they were much younger, which may contribute to the matter. This has also been speculated by WordOfGod to be why there are so ridiculously many Draco[=/=]Hermione fanfics, even though the actual chemistry between the two, on set and in the books, is... debatable, to say the least.
** Many fans films ship Creator/MatthewLewis and Creator/EvannaLynch (Neville and Luna, respectively), on the basis of them being very close friends and also being adorable.
** Daniel Radcliff/Tom Felton, who played [[FanPreferredCouple Harry and Draco]], is a fairly popular pairing, what with their adorable friendship and all. They are both apparently quite aware of this.
* Creator/ZacEfron and Music/VanessaHudgens from ''Film/HighSchoolMusical''. That one actually sailed strong for five years until their breakup in December 2010.
* Creator/JenniferLawrence and Creator/JoshHutcherson got their own fanbase after playing [[StarCrossedLovers Katniss and Peeta]] in ''Film/TheHungerGames''. During filming of ''Catching Fire'', the second film in the series, another shipper base grew around Hutcherson and Sam Claflin, who plays Finnick Odair. Fuel was added to that fire when Claflin talked in an interview about the scene where [[spoiler:Finnick gives Peeta CPR]] and said "My mouth touching his was a beautiful moment. It'll live with me for the rest of my life. We're meant to be together." Nor did it help when Jennifer Lawrence commented on the bromance and called it "annoying".
* ''Film/ICareALot'': A lot of the film's fans cite the chemistry between Creator/RosamundPike and Creator/EizaGonzalez as one of the key pulls. It's helped by Rosamund and Eiza being oddly flirtatious with each other, such as addressing each other as "my wife" during interviews.
* Some ''Film/ImagineMeAndYou'' fans like to ship Creator/LenaHeadey and Creator/PiperPerabo, who played the forbidden lovers Luce and Rachel, due to their on-screen chemistry. It doesn't hurt that they both appeared in ''Film/TheCave'' together and that they have been close friends for years in real life. Never mind that Piper is married to Stephen Kay and both women appear to be straight in real life. Look at most of the comments in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hldkewgQ_c8 this interview]] they did for the film and you will find fans speculating that they are attracted to each other or saying that they should be a couple in real life due to how adorable they are. The fact that when asked if they felt there should have been more sex scenes, Lena's answer was "Yes definitely. I felt robbed." doesn't help.
* Creator/AubreyPlaza and Creator/ElizabethOlsen of ''Film/IngridGoesWest'' have gotten this, thanks to many, many pictures of the two of them being extremely handsy with each other.
* It isn't unheard of to ship Creator/KeanuReeves and Creator/WinonaRyder, who have done [[Film/BramStokersDracula several]] [[Film/AScannerDarkly different]] [[Film/DestinationWedding movies]] together. Shippers jokingly refer to them as being married, due to an incident during the filming of ''Bram Stoker's Dracula'' in which a scene where their characters got married was filmed in an actual church with a real priest performing the ceremony.
* ''Film/KnivesOut'': Creator/ChrisEvans and Creator/AnaDeArmas were shipped together quite a lot due to their playfulness and chemistry together in promotional material for the movie.
* ''Film/TheLordOfTheRings'':
** A VocalMinority of fans were (and in some cases, still are) ''very'' passionate about their belief that Creator/ElijahWood and Creator/DominicMonaghan were/are in a committed romantic relationship that the movie studio and publicists forced them to hide by taking on fake girlfriends--these fans' detractors were the ones to coin the term "tinhat" for this phenomenon.
** Less prolific but just as passionate were those who believed that Creator/ViggoMortensen and Creator/OrlandoBloom were in an identical situation.
** Dominic Monaghan and Creator/BillyBoyd, being wonderful friends, had their share of shippers... and still have, in spite of still being very close friends. They even have a portmanteau.
** Creator/SeanBean and Viggo Mortensen shippers, who are still apparently going extremely strong. Never mind that Bean is notoriously heterosexual and married (and divorced). But why would he keep divorcing his wives hmm?
* ''Film/MammaMia'': An astonishing number of people seem to ship Creator/PierceBrosnan and Creator/MerylStreep, even though they are ''both'' HappilyMarried (to Keely Shaye-Smith and Don Gummer, respectively) and have been for quite some time. On the other hand, they quite obviously adore each other, and Pierce once referred to Meryl as "that gorgeous blonde I had a terrible crush on in drama school"...
* ''Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse''
** ''Film/{{The Avengers|2012}}'' is certainly gaining steam with its cast.
*** One stand-out would be Creator/JeremyRenner (ComicBook/{{Hawkeye}}) with Creator/ScarlettJohansson (ComicBook/BlackWidow), certainly aided by the fact the two are close friends IRL and that their interviews together can seem [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KCcE2XCFOII especially flirty]]. Renner [[https://twitter.com/Renner4Real/status/597218933385592833 sending a Happy Mother's Day wish to her on Twitter]] with the hashtag #sweetscarlet didn't help any matters.
*** There's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1QpBsLzXwp8 also]] Creator/RobertDowneyJr and Creator/MarkRuffalo.
** Creator/ChrisEvans gets this a lot, some examples being commonly with Creator/ScarlettJohansson and Creator/RobertDowneyJr given that him and Scarlett have known each other far before the MCU and his friendship with RDJ. He also has a small but dedicated fanbase that ships him with Creator/ElizabethOlsen due to their interactions together, especially during promotional material for Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar, not to mention the amount of people that ship him with Creator/SebastianStan and Creator/AnthonyMackie.
** Creator/TomHolland gets shipped a lot with his fellow MCU actors, with most of this coming from his ''Franchise/SpiderMan'' films due to his close friendships with his co-stars there. ''Film/SpiderManHomecoming'' fans who shipped Peter with MJ started to ship Tom with Creator/{{Zendaya}}, due to their on-screen chemistry. During the lead-up to ''Film/SpiderManFarFromHome'', a vocal portion of the fanbase started to ship Tom with Creator/JakeGyllenhaal, despite their almost twenty-year age difference. This was mostly due to the two loving to joke about their friendship, such as describing their first meeting as something out of ''Film/Titanic1997'', or Tom joking that they were already married during the premiere. That is not even getting into the small, but dedicated group of Starker shippers who ship him with Creator/RobertDowneyJr.
** Just ''days'' after ''Film/{{Thor}}'' was released, people started prompting Creator/ChrisHemsworth[=/=]Creator/TomHiddleston on the KinkMeme and that ship is still gaining momentum. (Never mind that Chris is married. To a woman.)
* ''Film/TheMazeRunnerSeries'' fans have taken to shipping Creator/DylanOBrien and Creator/ThomasBrodieSangster, due to the two playing the fandom's most popular ship, Thomas/Newt, and their off-screen friendship. It helps that they almost kissed and fake made out in bloopers for fun. Both actors are well aware of this and love to fuel the fans by playing up their closeness or pretending to flirt.
* Ever since ''Film/LesMiserables2012'', some fans would ship Creator/HughJackman and Creator/RussellCrowe since these two happen to be best friends in real life not to mention, their [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y59M0nPO2EA blatant]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wX0GTM0vROw display]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rlYVHOUa3Vo of bromance]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nFP-GrynCe8 in public]].
* Fans of the ''Film/MissionImpossible'' series have started shipping Creator/TomCruise (Ethan Hunt) with Creator/RebeccaFerguson (Ilsa Faust), his co-star and partner in on-screen {{UST}} from ''[[Film/MissionImpossibleRogueNation Rogue Nation]]'' onward. Their chemistry is absolutely undeniable (to the point where Ethan and Ilsa seem set for a {{relationship upgrade}} after ''[[Film/MissionImpossibleFallout Fallout]]''), and it ''definitely'' carries over into real life. Rebecca is happily married and in any case they really do seem to be just friends, but there's no denying that their friendship is an epically [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yUfpelY9w28 adorable and flirty]] one.
* Creator/BradPitt and Creator/AngelinaJolie. That ship set sail since they did ''Film/MrAndMrsSmith'' and has produced 6 little boats. They separated in 2016, but no doubt they still have their fair share of shippers.
* ''Film/TheMummy1999'': Creator/BrendanFraser and Creator/RachelWeisz's powerful onscreen chemistry was one of the reasons for the film's success, and many who desire a fourth film would like to see the two together onscreen again. This is despite the fact that Weisz is married to Creator/DanielCraig and that they haven't remained close after the films, according to Weisz. It doesn't help that Weisz once described Fraser as "hunky".
* There are some people who ship Creator/RiverPhoenix and Creator/KeanuReeves, who were both close friends and co-stars on ''Film/MyOwnPrivateIdaho'' (where Phoenix's character was [[IncompatibleOrientation in love with Reeves']]), even though Phoenix has been dead since 1993. The fact that there was rumours that they were kissing outside of a gay nightclub only fuels this.
* Creator/JenniferLawrence and Creator/ChrisPratt became popular during promotion of ''Film/Passengers2016''. While many people found their onscreen romance creepy due to the circumstances, their playful and flirty chemistry in interviews together tugged a lot of people's heartstrings.
* ''Film/PercyJacksonAndTheOlympians'': Creator/LoganLerman and Creator/AlexandraDaddario, who played OfficialCouple Percy Jackson and Annabeth Chase, are rumored to have dated in real life and even been engaged at one point. This fact, and their flirty banter in interviews, led to many fans shipping them to this day, even after they have long since broken up. They are often referred to as "[[PortmanteauCoupleName Logandra]]" by their shippers.
* Fans of ''Film/PitchPerfect'' rabidly ship Creator/AnnaKendrick and Creator/BrittanySnow due to the LesYay between Beca and Chloe. It doesn't help that Anna admitted in an interview that filming the shower scene between Beca and Chloe took so long that she's ''memorized'' Brittany's body.
* While Music/SelenaGomez is a frequent victim of this with her co-stars, none really complete with that of her with Music/DemiLovato following ''Film/PrincessProtectionProgram''. Though there was already many people shipping them beforehand, this movie cemented it. The two at the time best friends shared a lot of LesYay together both in the film and while promoting it. They had a Website/{{YouTube}} channel together at one point, both were on ''Series/BarneyAndFriends'', and have known each other since they were kids. The two's song [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=JawYcBuOPts One and the Same]] also didn't help matters. Some fans have also speculated that Demi's song [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NBa-KlRYhI Stop The World]] which they introduced as about "being in love with someone you're not supposed to be in love with", was written about Selena. The pairing still continues to have a following years later.
* ''Film/TheRunaways'': While they had previously worked together on ''Twilight'', Creator/KristenStewart and Creator/DakotaFanning's close friendship while promoting this biopic led many fans of it to ship them. The two would often tease each other, with Kristen at one point pranking Dakota on Jimmy Fallon by recording a message asking how it was to kiss her, and when not doing that, the two would praise each other. Dakota also presented Kristen with an award at the Women In Hollywood Awards, to which Kristen said, "Oh my God, dude I love you so much." The pair's continued friendship has made sure that the pairing still has a following years later.
* Ever since working together in ''Film/SilverLiningsPlaybook'', ''Film/{{Serena}}'' and ''Film/AmericanHustle'', some fans would ship Creator/JenniferLawrence with Creator/BradleyCooper. Never mind that Bradley's old enough to be her dad.
* Creator/SimonPegg and Creator/NickFrost are best friends in real life, which, combined with the HoYay in [[Film/ShaunOfTheDead all of]] [[Film/HotFuzz their]] [[Film/{{Paul}} films]], makes them easy prey for this trope.
* ''Film/SinginInTheRain'' has this InUniverse: the gossip interviewer near the start, the "Fan Magazine", and so many fans of "Lockwood and Lamont" shipped them. The gossip interviewer asked if wedding bells were approaching.
* Creator/AndrewGarfield and Creator/JesseEisenberg from ''Film/TheSocialNetwork''. The amount of character bleed from their [[SlashFic characters]] and Andrew's proclamation of love for Jesse in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BCHDsMLniO8&feature=player_embedded this interview]] did not help. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsd8QQfeMB4&feature=player_embedded Giggling, whispering and possible under-the-table activity]] only solidified suspicions of their heterosexuality. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBx5ZpA6xJg The lift]] from the 2011 Golden Globes.
* Creator/TobeyMaguire confirmed that there was ''some'' of this chemistry between him and Creator/KirstenDunst on the ''Film/SpiderManTrilogy'' set. He's married (to someone else).
* Creator/RobertDowneyJr and Creator/JudeLaw, as of ''Film/SherlockHolmes2009'' and [[Film/SherlockHolmesAGameOfShadows its sequel]]. Their interactions during interviews really do not help matters.
* ''Film/AStarIsBorn2018'': Even though Creator/BradleyCooper was romantically involved and the father of a child with Creator/IrinaShayk, that hasn't stopped fans from shipping him with Music/LadyGaga. Their chemistry in this film (and, for that matter, in promo interviews they've made for the film, along with their performance at the 2019 Oscars) is simply that powerful. Gaga for her part has made it clear that anything that looks to be beyond the strong friendship the two genuinely have is only an act and has said she finds it quite flattering toward her acting ability that she could fool so many people. Shortly after the Oscars she also trolled the shippers by saying she was pregnant... with her next album.
* ''Film/StarTrek2009'' fans love to ship Creator/ChrisPine and Creator/ZacharyQuinto, with tons of fanfics and fan edits that pair them together, which is unsurprising considering the two are playing the characters who basically invented shipping, Kirk/Spock. The two are actually good friends in real life and love to play up their closeness in interviews. Of course, it doesn't hurt that Quinto is actually gay in real life. They even have their own PortmanteauCoupleName, "Pinto". Some fans also ship Pine with Creator/KarlUrban (Urbine) and Quinto with Creator/ZoeSaldana.
* ''Film/StarWars'':
** Creator/HarrisonFord and Creator/CarrieFisher got this a lot from Han/Leia shippers after the rumors of their supposed affair during the production, which was [[http://people.com/movies/carrie-fisher-reveals-affair-with-harrison-ford-star-wars/ confirmed]] by Carrie herself on her memoir, ''The Princess Diarist'', before her passing. It went to the point where co-star Creator/MarkHamill also shipped them, even more so by calling them "Carrison" and "Harrie". The name "Carrison" eventually turned up as a chapter title in ''The Princess Diarist''. This still continues, even years after Fisher's death.
-->'''Carrie Fisher:''' It was Han and Leia during the week, and Carrie and Harrison during the weekend.
** During the days of the Original Trilogy, the fans who loved Luke and Leia's romantic chemistry turned into shipping Creator/MarkHamill and Creator/CarrieFisher (nicknamed "Marrie", apparently), due to them being very close in real-life. It was eventually revealed in Carrie Fisher's memoir that Mark indeed had a crush on her during the production of ''A New Hope''.
** During the days of the Prequel Trilogy, a significant amount of the fans shipped Creator/NataliePortman with Creator/HaydenChristensen, nicknamed 'Nayden'. The fact that they briefly dated during production did not hurt either.
** Creator/JohnBoyega and Creator/DaisyRidley became a ship loved by many, not only for their on-screen chemistry but also for their ''strong'' off-screen chemistry (similar to Mark/Carrie), which was further ignited by John Boyega giving her an AffectionateNickname, "Peanut".
** Prior to the release of TLJ, Creator/DaisyRidley and Creator/DomhnallGleeson became an equally popular ship thanks to promotional materials, due to Gleeson's [[{{Adorkable}} seeming awkwardness]] when around Daisy and both expressing heavy appreciation for each other a LOT.
** After the release of ''Film/RogueOne'', Creator/FelicityJones and Creator/DiegoLuna picked up some flames from Jyn/Cassian shippers. Also, Creator/MadsMikkelsen and Creator/BenMendelsohn got quite a number of shippers after they showed quite a chemistry on interview/events, at least until the former got close to Creator/HideoKojima.
* ''Film/{{Titanic 1997}}'' fans, [[EveryoneCanSeeIt and everyone else,]] continue to ship Creator/LeonardoDiCaprio and Creator/KateWinslet, even though Leo's been with various other women since and Kate is married with three children. Of course, Kate professing her 13-year love for Leo ''THEN'' thanking her husband during the 2009 Golden Globes before the audience, Leo giving her a ring with a secret inscription carved inside as a present, and Kate's failing marriage with director Creator/SamMendes after shooting ''Film/RevolutionaryRoad'' with Leo does NOT help matters. The actors themselves are pretty adamant that at this point they're LikeBrotherAndSister, and Leonardo is considered a HonoraryUncle by Kate's kids. Still, having such an incredibly beautiful friendship for over two decades, there’s a reason why them beaming at each other is this page’s picture.
* ''Film/TripleFrontier'' co-stars Creator/OscarIsaac (Pope) and Creator/PedroPascal (Catfish) sometimes get shipped together, especially since their friendship dates further back than the movie does. Even though Isaac remains married to Elvira Lind[[note]]who expressed support of this ship by referring to herself and Pascal as "[[https://www.instagram.com/p/BofNhgfldZH/?utm_medium=copy_link sisterwives]]"[[/note]], ''Vulture'' praised Pope and Catfish for having the "[[https://www.vulture.com/2019/03/ben-affleck-oscar-isaac-triple-frontier-bromances-ranked.html horniest bromance]]" of the film, and noted that Isaac and Pascal shared an intimate chemistry when ''WIRED'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=stLw-2Ob8xQ interviewed both of them]] during the press tour. (Among other highlights of the interview, the duo answers the question "What languages does Oscar Isaac speak?" by agreeing that he speaks "the language of love!") The actors even have [[https://twitter.com/remezcla/status/1451593973185880081?s=21 romantic-sounding nicknames]] and photos of them [[https://ewan-mcgregor.tumblr.com/post/640421073713807360/amordemivida-pedro-pascal-about-oscar-isaac getting physically close]].
* ''Literature/{{Twilight}}'' {{film}} series:
** Creator/KristenStewart and Creator/RobertPattinson were subject to this, though there may actually be precedent for it. Rumor has it that Pattinson only auditioned for the role of Edward Cullen in the first place so he'd have an excuse to hit on Stewart. This plan backfired once ''Literature/{{Twilight}}'' fans [[CelebrityIsOverrated recognized him in public]]. It's safe to say that Pattinson and Stewart were officially together for a time.
** For a LesYay example, many fans have started {{shipping}} Kristen Stewart with Creator/NikkiReed after seeing [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CYEnLPa3Yw&feature=related various]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0pXaEtKZqzA videos]] of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LawPEoNljFM them kissing each other]]
* Creator/JamesMcAvoy appears to be something of a slash whore because the ''Film/VictorFrankenstein'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9shlBuTkiU0 SDCC panel]] was full of dirty jokes between himself and Creator/DanielRadcliffe. [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything [=McAvoy=] infamously pinned Radcliffe against the wall]] after the host requested that they re-enact a homoerotic scene from the movie. The latter at one point declared, "And a thousand slash fics were born! The actors' ship name is Radavoy, and this is confirmed by James (with Daniel's approval) in [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DoBqx0kqML8&feature=youtu.be&t=4m24s this interview.]] They both [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VbOwmwTaidg&feature=youtu.be&t=0m13s demand that shippers write more erotic fanfics about them.]] Daniel has something of a man crush on his co-star because he reveals in [[http://41.media.tumblr.com/67430931e4a54946a4b7e73b3312a9e7/tumblr_nv8sh2QwMi1qmequho3_1280.jpg this ''Total Film'' article]] that he likes being beaten by [=McAvoy=]:
--->'''Radcliffe''': I've enjoyed all aspects of working with [James], but the physical side is one that really sets him apart from a lot of people. He has thrown me around in this film. Pretty much our first day was him repeatedly slamming me against a pillar, so that set the tone. I like to think that I've been the most willing victim he's ever had as an onscreen partner.
* ''Film/XMenFilmSeries'':
** Creator/MichaelFassbender and Creator/JamesMcAvoy, who played Magneto and Professor X respectively in ''Film/XMenFirstClass''. The latter is especially enthusiastic, and this has earned him the title of "The Captain of Our Ship" on Tumblr. While doing interviews promoting the film, the actors sang to each other and talked about how [[https://youtu.be/I7u1kb4TMo4?t=5m27s they would fly all over the world spreading love to the hapless populace if they had super powers.]] James' tendency to talk about how their characters should have had sex and gotten married did not help one bit.
** The original Professor X and Magneto, Sir Creator/PatrickStewart and Sir Creator/IanMcKellen, have their shippers too, as the two are friends in real life, have appeared on stage together, and, of course, Ian [=McKellen=] is actually gay.
