7	->''"We get along so well, I love Jenna. She's one of my closest friends. I think we have a different dynamic off-screen, but I still don't think its any less important or deep or beautiful than Enid and Wednesday's."''
8	-->-- '''Creator/EmmaMyers''' on her friendship with '''Creator/JennaOrtega''', formed during the filming of ''Series/{{Wednesday}}''

10	Being on the set of any film, television or cartoon production could have plenty of outcomes. On average, actors are simply associates who work together and then go their separate ways once the project ends with no ill will towards their coworkers. Of course, RomanceOnTheSet may happen between coworkers and, on the opposite end, so does HostilityOnTheSet.
11
12	This trope lies in the middle, where someone becomes close to their coworker either as a good friend or even a best friend. Obviously, this can change the trajectory of their lives/careers, [[ProductionPosse even to the point of making several projects together]] or [[IWantYouToMeetAnOldFriendOfMine later guest-starring on the costar's latest show.]] Also, while a friendship may develop between coworkers, [[WeUsedToBeFriends it can still end through a non-death manner.]]

33	* ''Film/ALeagueOfTheirOwn'': Music/{{Madonna}} and Creator/RosieODonnell first met while filming the movie. Since it was produced at the height of Madonna's fame (and controversies), O'Donnell initially thought she'd be ThePrimaDonna. But instead, Madonna got on well with the cast and crew and particularly cliqued with O'Donnell. The two women remain good friends to this day.
34	* Creator/MelGibson and Creator/RobertDowneyJr became close friends while making ''Film/AirAmerica''. Gibson later insisted that Downey be cast in ''Film/TheSingingDetective'' despite his issues with drugs and alcohol. And Downey Jr. once stated before Phase 3 of the Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse that the only reason why he'd do an ''Iron Man 4'' is if Gibson was director.
35	* ''Film/AlmostHeroes'': Creator/ChrisFarley and Creator/MatthewPerry became such good friends while making the movie, to the point where Perry was so upset by the news of Farley's death in 1997 that he punched a hole through the wall of Creator/JenniferAniston's dressing room on the set of ''Series/{{Friends}}''.

46	* Franchise/DCExtendedUniverse:
47	** Creator/PattyJenkins and Creator/GalGadot became friends when filming ''Film/{{Wonder Woman\|2017}}''. Particularly noteworthy is the fact that Jenkins was initially frustrated at the idea that Gadot, a model, was cast as Diana/Wonder Woman. She changed her mind when watching her in ''Film/BatmanVSupermanDawnOfJustice'' and working with her, and the rest is history.
48	** Creator/ZackSnyder, who's already known as one of the gentlest directors to work with, befriended both Creator/JasonMomoa and Creator/RayFisher when making ''[[Film/ZackSnydersJusticeLeague Justice League]]''. The two actors have defended the director afterward, crediting him for being an important step in their careers and being the first cast members to call for his version of the film to be released between 2017 and 2020.
49	* Creator/SandraBullock later said that Creator/SylvesterStallone was like an older brother to her while making ''Film/DemolitionMan''.

52	* Creator/JimCarrey and Creator/DamonWayans became good friends while working together in ''Film/EarthGirlsAreEasy''.

53	* Creator/VinDiesel and Creator/PaulWalker became close friends while making ''Film/TheFastAndTheFurious'' series and Diesel was devastated by Walker's tragic death in 2013.
54	* ''Film/FromHereToEternity'': Creator/MontgomeryClift befriended Creator/FrankSinatra and Creator/JamesJones and they would go on drinking binges.

55	* Despite butting heads due to their difference in acting styles, Creator/VincentDOnofrio and Creator/MatthewModine became and have remained great friends on the set of ''Film/FullMetalJacket''.

57	* ''Film/{{Giant}}'': Creator/ElizabethTaylor formed a lifelong friendship with Creator/RockHudson. She also befriended Creator/JamesDean and was devastated by his tragic death in 1955.

Dean also befriended Creator/DennisHopper on ''Film/RebelWithoutACause''.
58	* Creator/RussellCrowe and Creator/RichardHarris became friends while making ''Film/{{Gladiator}}'', bonding over their mutual love of rugby.
59	* At least two of ''Film/TheGoonies'', Creator/KeHuyQuan and Creator/JeffCohen, formed a friendship that lasted into adulthood; solidified when Cohen agreed to become Quan's lawyer when Quan decided to begin acting again. When Quan won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor in ''Film/EverythingEverywhereAllAtOnce'', he thanked Cohen for helping him get the part.
60	** Ke Huy Quan had also kept in touch with Creator/StevenSpielberg ever since ''Film/IndianaJonesAndTheTempleOfDoom'', has acted like a hyperactive little brother around his ''Film/EncinoMan'' co-star Creator/BrendanFraser when the two respectively won Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor at the Oscars, and Creator/HarrisonFord looks always happy to see Ke and is nothing short of proud of his success in the 2020s.
61	* Creator/JohnTravolta and Music/OliviaNewtonJohn became close friends while making ''Film/{{Grease}}'' in 1978. Travolta was in a relationship with actress Diana Hyland whom he met when she played his character's mother in the 1976 TV movie "The Boy in the Plastic Bubble" and was already suffering with the breast cancer that killed her in March 1977. At the time Travolta was filming "Film/SaturdayNightFever" in NYC and was unable to be with her. Her death, followed by the whirlwind of global stardom that followed greatly affected him and to Olivia he could unburden his feelings. He was visibly moved during the ''In Memoriam'' sketch dedicated to her at the 2023 Oscars.
62	* Creator/{{Steve McQueen\|Actor}} and Creator/JamesGarner became friends while making ''Film/TheGreatEscape'', bonding over their mutual love of motor-racing.
63	* Creator/TomHanks and Creator/MichaelClarkeDuncan became friends while making ''Film/TheGreenMile'', to the point that Hanks would deliver the eulogy at Duncan's funeral in 2012.
64	* Rather fittingly, Creator/DanielRadcliffe, Creator/RupertGrint, and Creator/EmmaWatson all grew to be close friends after their time as Harry, Ron, and Hermione in the ''Film/HarryPotter'' series. It actually got to the point where Watson described her BigDamnKiss scene with Grint as being particularly tough to film because she thought of him as practically a brother by that point. Creator/TomFelton (Draco Malfoy) also has also enjoyed a close relationship with them as well, in stark contrast to his character who is a constant thorn in their characters' sides.
65	* Creator/RobertMitchum was worried about working with Creator/DeborahKerr on ''Film/HeavenKnowsMrAllison'', fearing that she would be like the prim characters she frequently played. However, after she swore at Creator/JohnHuston during one take, Mitchum, who was in the water, almost drowned laughing. They would co-star in three more films and formed a lifelong friendship.
66	* Creator/ChristopherLambert and Creator/SeanConnery became such good friends while making ''Film/{{Highlander}}'' that Lambert would only return for the sequel if Connery did.
67	* After ''Film/HomeAlone'', Creator/MacaulayCulkin called Creator/CatherineOHara "mom". She was even in attendance when he received his Star on The Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2023 and gave a speech honoring him.
68	* The cast of ''Film/{{It\|2017}}'' very quickly became a close knit group of friends, especially the actors who played the Losers. There is plenty of behind-the-scenes video that show them hanging out together and having fun. There have also been many instances where the cast have posted their support for each other's projects outside of the film series. They write that they are "best friends", and encourage their followers to watch/support their work. Even years after filming they consistently stay connected through social media.
69	* ''Film/ItsAWonderfulKnife2023'': Jane Widdop (Winnie) and Creator/JessMcLeod (Bernie) quickly bonded after meeting. Both actors have said very kind things about each other in interviews, and say that the chemistry which the characters had stems from their bond.
70	* Creator/YulBrynner hand-picked Creator/DeborahKerr to be his costar in ''Film/TheKingAndI'' after seeing her onstage. They became lifelong friends afterwards.
71	* Creator/JerryLewis and Creator/KathleenFreeman. Freeman was a theater actress who did occasional movie roles (eg. as the elocution coach in Film/{{Singing in the Rain}}). Her friendship with Lewis began when she had a small part in the 1955 Martin and Lewis movie Film/{{Artists and Models}}. Impressed with her comedic and dramatic skills, in 1961 Lewis - now an established film-maker - cast "Katie" as his comic foil in Film/{{The Ladies Man}}, and in The Errand Boy. By the time Film/{{The Nutty Professor1963}} began shooting, "Katie" was being given a generous per diem to stay on after her scenes were completed, mostly to keep Lewis company. As he observed: "I always work better, when Katie is here." They made 11 movies together and their friendship lasted until her death in 2001.
72	* While making ''Film/TheKlansman'', Creator/LeeMarvin boasted to Creator/RichardBurton that he got top billing, to which Burton replied that he was being paid more. The pair often got drunk together to the point where Burton claimed that they met again at a party and couldn't remember making the film.
73	* Creator/MarlonBrando and Maria Schneider became friends with one another while making ''Film/LastTangoInParis'', later finding solidarity in their shared feelings of sexual humiliation regarding Creator/BernardoBertolucci's treatment of them on set. The two remained friends until Brando's death in 2004.
74	* Creator/PeterOToole and Creator/OmarSharif became fast friends while making ''Film/LawrenceOfArabia''. Upon learning his name, O'Toole declared, "You can't be called that, there isn't a movie star in the world named Omar Sharif. Your name must be Cairo Fred". They would often go out drinking together.
75	** O'Toole also befriended Creator/JackHawkins, much to Creator/DavidLean's annoyance, as their character are supposed to be enemies. They would annoy Lean by ad-libbing material.
76	* Creator/BrigitteBardot and Creator/ClaudiaCardinale became good friends while filming ''Film/TheLegendOfFrenchieKing'', no doubt frustrating the paparazzi that had hoped their onscreen rivalry (which includes a pretty long CatFight) was fed by RealitySubtext.
77	* The four main actors of ''Film/LockStockAndTwoSmokingBarrels'' became friends.
78	* The cast and crew of ''Film/TheLordOfTheRings'' became this thanks to the three years they spent filming the movies back to back/concurrently in UsefulNotes/NewZealand. Also, while the entire cast became close, smaller groups of true companions formed between the actors playing the four hobbits (Creator/ElijahWood, Creator/SeanAstin, Creator/DominicMonaghan, and Creator/BillyBoyd), and between the trio who played Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli (Creator/ViggoMortensen, Creator/OrlandoBloom, and Creator/JohnRhysDavies).
79	* Creator/CoreyHaim and Creator/CoreyFeldman met and became best friends while making ''Film/TheLostBoys''. Precluded from the nightly parties held by the older actors, they stayed in the hotel watching movies and visited the local arcade.

83	* Music/DavidBowie became fast friends with James Malcolm during location filming in Auckland, New Zealand for ''Film/MerryChristmasMrLawrence''. Bowie openly referred to Malcolm, who played his character's brother in the movie, as his "New Zealand brother," and when he revisited Auckland during the supporting tour for ''Music/LetsDance'' the following year, he invited him on-stage to release a peace dove together.
84	* Creator/MarilynMonroe befriended Creator/MontgomeryClift while making ''Film/TheMisfits'', saying "It's great to meet someone who's in worse shape than I am".
85	* The main cast of the ''Film/MissionImpossibleFilmSeries'' (Creator/TomCruise, Creator/SimonPegg, Creator/RebeccaFerguson, and Creator/VingRhames) seem to be quite close, especially Ferguson and Pegg, who have frequently posted pictures on social media of them goofing off on set, as well as her and Cruise, whose warm and loving real-life friendship has been largely credited for their characters' strong onscreen chemistry.
86	* Unlike their characters, Creator/AdewaleAkinnuoyeAgbaje and Freddie Boath got along with each other while making ''Film/TheMummyReturns''.
87	* Creator/ChrisEvans and Creator/ScarlettJohansson became friends when they first starred together in ''Film/ThePerfectScore''.
88	* Creator/SylvesterStallone and Creator/RichardCrenna became good friends following the first three Franchise/{{Rambo}} films. So much that Stallone refused to recast the role of Col. Trautman following Crenna's death.
89	* Creator/JamesDean, Creator/NatalieWood, Sal Mineo and Nick Adams were an inseparable foursome while making ''Film/RebelWithoutACause''. Dean even encouraged Mineo to play his character as gay.
90	* Creator/MaureenOHara became such good friends with Creator/JohnWayne during the filming of ''Film/RioGrande'', they went on the star together in four more films. They were known to have similar interests and confident attitudes, to the point that Wayne joked that she was the greatest [[TheLadette guy]] he knew. When he died in 1979, O'Hara fell into a deep depression that lasted for several years.
91	* The young cast of ''Film/TheSandlot'' became fast friends, with many of them saying the filming was a lot like summer camp since they got to play baseball all the time.
92	* ''Film/TheSchoolForGoodAndEvil2022'': In interviews to promote the film, Creator/CharlizeTheron and Creator/KerryWashington revealed that they became incredibly close friends while filming. Despite having never met before, both actresses have said that they had a instant chemistry and bond due to their shared experiences as mothers and spent a large part of the press for the film gushing about their friendship. Both actresses also became [[TeamMom co-moms]] towards the younger cast of the film.
93	* Creator/TedLevine and Creator/BrookeSmith respectively played SerialKiller Buffalo Bill and his victim Catherine Martin in ''Literature/TheSilenceOfTheLambs'', but became great friends on the set of the film, to the point where Creator/JodieFoster jokingly nicknamed her [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patty_Hearst Patty Hearst]]. They became so close that, when Smith improvised her IWantMyMommy line as Catherine pleading with Buffalo Bill, Levine is visibly trying to hold back tears.
94	* Just like in their movie, ''Film/TheSisterhoodOfTheTravelingPants'', the four main actresses (Creator/AmericaFerrera, Creator/AmberTamblyn, Creator/BlakeLively, and Creator/AlexisBledel) became best friends in real life. It helps that they also attended each other's weddings.
95	* ''Film/TheSoundOfMusic'': The actors who played the seven von Trapp children truly did become family during filming, and upon the deaths of first Charmian Carr and later Heather Menzies-Urich noted that it did feel as though they'd lost a sibling.
96	-->'''Nicholas Hammond''': What Bob Wise set out to do was create a family -- and he did.
97	* The four main actors of ''Film/StandByMe'', Creator/WilWheaton, Creator/RiverPhoenix, Creator/CoreyFeldman, and Creator/JerryOConnell became close friends, reflecting the camaraderie you see in the film.
98	* Creator/WilliamShatner and Creator/PatrickStewart became friends while making ''Film/StarTrekGenerations''. Shatner, a passionate and world-class equestrian, advised him how to ride a horse properly.
99	* ''Franchise/StarWars'':
100	** During the production of the original trilogy, Creator/MarkHamill and Creator/CarrieFisher, who played Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa respectively, became friends in real life (fittingly as [[spoiler:their characters ended up as siblings]]). Hamill often referred to her as his "Space Sister" and was absosutely devastated by Fisher's death.
101	** Hamill also experienced this trope with Creator/IanMcDiarmid (who played the BigBad, Emperor Palpatine), as they bonded over their appreciation of British comedy.
102	* The five female leads of ''Film/SuckerPunch'' - Emily Browning, Jamie Chung, Abbie Cornish, Vanessa Hudgens and Jena Malone - all became FireForgedFriends throughout the filming process, with Jamie Chung listing it as her favourite role in large part because of the friendships she made making it. Jena Malone declared during press junkets "I have four sisters right here".
103	* In Creator/YuenWooPing film ''Film/TigerCage2'', real life Martial Artist Creator/RobinShou befriended his fellow acting pal and known host of the show ''Go West'' Creator/DavidWu while filming the fight scene between him and David. In an exerpt linked on Robin's page, Robin spoke about how spliced between the fight was a body double who would land punches onto Robin during the fight sequence and David taking Robin's punches and kicks. A example of this was Robin leaping up and kicking David in the jaw before the fight began. Despite David taking Robin's hits, they still remained as friends after filming finished.
104	* The two stars of ''Film/Titanic1997''. Creator/LeonardoDiCaprio had to wear a long coat for most of his shoot. James Cameron recalled, "He would, like, fart in it and then sweep the coat over her face. I mean, if anybody else in the world did that, they'd get slapped, and the other person would walk away and not talk to them for a week. With Leo, [[Creator/KateWinslet Kate]] would just crack up."
105	* Creator/GregoryPeck and Mary Badham became lifelong friends while making ''Film/ToKillAMockingbird'' and kept in contact for the rest of his life. Peck always called her "Scout", while Badham called Peck "Atticus".
106	* Creator/OliverReed and [[Music/TheWho Keith Moon]] became friends while making ''Film/{{Tommy}}'' and engaged in numerous pranks, to the point where they were kept in a separate hotel from everyone else. They remained friends until Moon's death, which left Reed devastated.
107	* ''Film/TrueLies'': Creator/ArnoldSchwarzenegger and Creator/TomArnold became very good friends because of this film. Tom thinks this is because they both grew up in a small town and made something of themselves, and has more than once spoken of their UndyingLoyalty to each other.
108	* Speaking of Jim Carrey, his 1998 role in the ambitious dramedy ''Film/TheTrumanShow,'' saw him costarring with Creator/NoahEmmerich, who plays an actor who plays Truman's best friend. Carrey hit it off with Emmerich very well and has referred to him as his best friend.
109	* During production of ''Film/ValleyOfTheDolls'', the three stars, Barbara Parkins, Creator/PattyDuke and Creator/SharonTate, became exceptionally close to the point of both women serving as bridesmaids in Tate's wedding.
110	* The five child actors of ''Film/WillyWonkaAndTheChocolateFactory'' became friends into adulthood, even recording the film's DVDCommentary.

113	[[folder:Live-Action TV]]
114	* Creator/PatrickMacnee became friends with all his co-stars on ''Series/TheAvengers1960s''. Creator/DianaRigg claimed that Macnee and her chauffeur were her only friends onset.
115	* The cast of ''Series/BandOfBrothers'' became just as close to each other during filming as the real men of Easy Company did during the war. They hold a cast reunion every year and frequently participate in USO tours and UsefulNotes/WorldWarII historical events together.
116	* ''Series/BarneyAndFriends'': Music/SelenaGomez and Music/DemiLovato befriended each other while acting in Season 7. They were best friends for many years afterwards, leading to other collaborative projects when they became Creator/DisneyChannel stars. However, they eventually grew apart.
117	* ''Franchise/{{Buffyverse}}'':
118	** ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'': Creator/SarahMichelleGellar and Creator/AlysonHannigan were best friends, much like Buffy and Willow. Gellar is also friends with Creator/DavidBoreanaz, Creator/EmmaCaulfield, Creator/SethGreen, Creator/JamesMarsters, Creator/AmberBenson, Creator/CharismaCarpenter and especially Creator/MichelleTrachtenberg.
119	** ''Series/{{Angel}}'': Boreanez and Carpenter were close friends with Creator/GlennQuinn, the former calling him "a dear friend" on the 20th anniversary reunion.
120	* ''Series/{{Charmed 1998}}'':
121	** Creator/ShannenDoherty and Creator/HollyMarieCombs were already best friends when the show started, and the former had even fought for Holly to be cast as Piper when the network execs didn't think she had enough "star power". Shannen however admitted that they lost touch in the 2010s, though fortunately, the two would resume their friendship later that decade. Interestingly enough, Shannen would later become good friends with Creator/RoseMcGowan, who played her half-sister Paige in the same decade despite never starring in the show together, due to the latter's character replacing the former's character after her death in season three.
122	** Creator/HollyMarieCombs and her on-screen husband Creator/BrianKrause are still close twenty years later, frequently doing panels together at conventions. They also bonded with Creator/DrewFuller, who played their KidFromTheFuture, and eventually set up a podcast together called ''House of Halliwell''.
123	** Creator/KaleyCuoco describes her first day on set as Creator/AlyssaMilano coming up to her with a hug and saying "welcome to our show". Notably, Billie was introduced as Paige's charge, but soon bonded more with Phoebe; reflecting the actresses' real-life connection.
124	* While ''Series/{{Community}}'' was rather infamous for the [[HostilityOnTheSet on-set tensions]] between Creator/ChevyChase and his co-stars, nearly everyone ''else'' in the main cast got along incredibly well. In particular: Troy and Abed's [[HeterosexualLifePartners iconic friendship]] is said to have been [[ThrowItIn inspired]] by Creator/DonaldGlover and Creator/DannyPudi becoming good friends off-set (Troy was [[WhatCouldHaveBeen originally]] supposed to become best friends with Pierce instead). Pudi is also known to be very tight with Creator/AlisonBrie, which led to them reuniting in the film ''Film/SomebodyIUsedToKnow'', written and directed by Brie and her husband Creator/DaveFranco. Meanwhile, Creator/JoelMcHale and Creator/KenJeong would go on to host their own podcast together, and numerous other ''Community'' alums would show up as guest panelists on Jeong's game show ''Series/ICanSeeYourVoice''.
125	* Quite a bit on ''Series/TheCosbyShow'':
126	** Creator/BillCosby and Creator/PhyliciaRashad became good friends while appearing on the show as husband and wife, so much that they reunited to play husband and wife again on his later series ''Cosby''.
127	** A behind-the-scenes version: Creator/MalcolmJamalWarner and Cosby's only son, Ennis (who Warner's character Theo Huxtable was based on) became best friends. After Ennis' tragic 1997 murder, Malcolm called him "[his] brother, and I love him". Warner also had this and a RomanceOnTheSet with Creator/MichelleThomas, who appeared as his date in one episode, and although they had broken up, he was at her side when she died from stomach cancer in 1998.
128	* ''Series/DadsArmy'': While TheVicar only just tolerated the Verger, Creator/FrankWilliams became very close friends with Creator/EdwardSinclair behind the scenes, recalling:
129	-->Edward Sinclair was the kindest of men and we became close friends - so did Creator/BillPertwee. Over the years, the three of us became a kind of unholy alliance on and off-screen.
130	* ''Series/DoctorWho'':
131	** Creator/WilliamHartnell got on with most of his regular co-stars and Creator/VerityLambert and was upset at seeing them leave. Creator/WilliamRussell recalled that the food at Lime Grove Studio was so bad the cast would have picnics together. Creator/PeterPurves recalled that while Hartnell could be difficult, he was never difficult with him.
132	** In contrast to Hartnell's tetchy personality, Creator/PatrickTroughton was adored by nearly everyone who worked with him due to his upbeat, easy-going nature. He credited Creator/MichaelCraze and Creator/AnnekeWills with helping him find his footing and was best friends with Creator/FrazerHines, forming an infamous pair of pranksters.
133	** Creator/JonPertwee became friends with Creator/NicholasCourtney, Creator/KatyManning and Creator/RogerDelgado. Manning described Pertwee and Delgado as her two fathers. It was Delgado's tragic death and Manning's departure that led to Pertwee leaving the series, as he felt that family atmosphere was disappearing, though he got on very well with Creator/ElisabethSladen, who considered him to be her Doctor.
134	** Creator/TomBaker got on famously with Sladen and Creator/IanMarter, forming one of the best-loved line-ups.

138	** Creator/DavidTennant was also good friends with Creator/CatherineTate during her tenure on the show as Donna Noble. The two of them have since worked together on other projects, notably an RSC production of ''Theatre/MuchAdoAboutNothing'' (as Benedick and Beatrice), and voicework on ''WesternAnimation/DuckTales2017'' (as Scrooge [=McDuck=] and Magica Despell).
139	** Creator/MattSmith, Creator/KarenGillan, and Creator/ArthurDarvill spent three years together on the show, and even participated in a virtual reunion during the Covid Pandemic in 2020.

141	* The cast of ''Series/{{Friends}}'' all insisted on equal pay and screentime, and if they were nominated for awards, you could not nominate one of the cast for Best Lead and another for Best Supporting Cast Member.

We are a family.".
142	* The cast of ''Series/FullHouse'' became close during the show's eight-year production and remained close years later. This is why they took Creator/BobSaget's untimely passing in 2022 so hard. When Creator/JodieSweetin became addicted to meth, her fellow former cast members all helped intervene to get her into rehab.
143	* ''Series/GameOfThrones'':
144	** Creator/SophieTurner and Creator/MaisieWilliams, who played sisters Sansa and Arya Stark, developed a deep and abiding friendship which has lasted long after the end of the series.

145	** Creator/JasonMomoa and Creator/EmiliaClarke - who played onscreen love interests Drogo and Daenerys - became friends after meeting on the show. Clarke mentioned that the more experienced Momoa looked out for her on-set and supported her during nude scenes, including demanding she be treated better and encouraging her to speak up if she was uncomfortable. Although the last time they appeared together on the show was in Season 2, they stayed in contact and remained friends long after the show ended.
146	** In a bit of truly delicious irony, Creator/LenaHeadey (Cersei Lannister) and Creator/HannahWaddingham (Septa Unella) -- two characters whose relationship is ''extremely'' antagonistic, to say the least -- became fast friends on set and are still close years after the show ended.
147	* Creator/MichaelSheen and Creator/DavidTennant became lifelong friends during the filming of ''Series/GoodOmens'', and collaborated on ''Series/{{Staged}}'' during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Creator/NeilGaiman has stated that initiating their friendship is one of the greatest accomplishments of his life.
148	* Creator/JohnRitter and Creator/BillyBobThornton became good friends while shooting ''Series/HeartsAfire''.

149	* Creator/LucilleBall initially gave Creator/VivianVance a hard time on the set ''Series/ILoveLucy'' due to her being cast as Ethel without her consent. She was expecting someone far less pretty and glamorous to play the role of the dumpy land-lady. However as Vance shown her talents, Lucy began to warm up to her, and over time the two became such close friends that Ball insisted that Vance join her on her next project ''Series/TheLucyShow'' in a co-starring role.

151	* ''Series/InterviewWithTheVampire2022'': By all accounts, Creator/JacobAnderson and Creator/SamReid became very close during the production of the first season, and during the press tour spent time together as friends doing things like going to sticker shops and getting ice cream.
152	* ''Series/TheLastOfUs2023'' co-stars Creator/PedroPascal and Creator/BellaRamsey formed a friendship comparable to the surrogate father/daughter bond Joel and Ellie develop in the first season. Ramsey also became very close with co-showrunner Craig Mazin and developed a similar surrogate father-daughter relationship with him. The credits of [[Recap/TheLastOfUs2023S1E6Kin the sixth episode]] reflect this, as a cover of Music/DepecheMode's "Never Let Me Down Again" plays over it, sung by Mazin's biological daughter Jessica and used to represent a character played by Ramsey, who Mazin considered to be his adopted child[[note]]Ramsey identifies as non-binary[[/note]].
153	* ''Series/LawAndOrderCriminalIntent'': Stars Creator/VincentDOnofrio and Creator/KathrynErbe became the LikeBrotherAndSister variety while working together in the show's ten-year production.
154	* ''Series/LongWayRound'': DiscussedTrope. Creator/EwanMcGregor and his cohost Charley Boorman talk in the first episode about how they became best friends after appearing together in the 1997 film ''The Serpent's Kiss'', and how it's unusual to make a friend for life on a film set.
155	* The cast of ''Series/MarriedWithChildren'' became very close to each other, with Creator/EdONeill almost becoming a surrogate father to Creator/ChristinaApplegate, whose own parents were divorced.

156	* On ''Series/Martin1992'', lead actresses Creator/TishaCampbell and Creator/TichinaArnold had previously worked together before (even appearing as the background singers in the film version of ''Film/LittleShopOfHorrors''), but them playing {{Heterosexual Life Partner}}s Gina and Pam respectively only deepened their existing friendship.

165	** Creator/LanaParrilla and Creator/JaredSGilmore became incredibly close during the filming of the show.

Lana also grew close to the actress who plays her sister, Creator/RebeccaMader, and the two often call each other their best friend.
166	** Creator/SeanMaguire and Creator/RobbieKay ironically didn't appear on-screen together, but they ended up becoming close friends simply through doing convention panels together. At one point, the former announced that he was adopting him as a joke. He also became close with Rebecca Mader, and the two did a podcast together during the COVID-19 pandemic.

174	* ''Series/RuPaulsDragRace'': While most examples of [[DragQueen contestants]] working together outside the show are queens that were already friends beforehand, there are a few that bonded during their season and became good friends afterwards. One of the most notable examples are the Season 6 finalists Adore Delano, Bianca Del Rio, Courtney Act, and Darienne Lake.[[note]]Darienne was actually the last queen eliminated ''before'' the finale, but close enough[[/note]] Not only was this the first season to lack any sort of rivalry among the finalists as they all had nothing but love and respect for each other, but a few years after the season, the four queens embarked on the "[[FunWithAcronyms ABCD]]" Tour.
175	* ''Series/SabrinaTheTeenageWitch'''s three lead actresses - Creator/MelissaJoanHart, Creator/CarolineRhea and Creator/BethBroderick - are still close friends twenty years later, with Melissa and Beth guest-starring on Caroline's talk show, and doing many convention panels together.

176	* ''Series/SaturdayNightLive'':
177	** One of the first (and possibly the strongest) close friendships was between Creator/JohnBelushi and Creator/DanAykroyd. Aykroyd was devastated after the former's 1982 death (and he was initially to play Venkman in ''Film/Ghostbusters1984'').
178	** Similarly, there was Creator/DavidSpade and Creator/ChrisFarley who also went on to star in ''Film/TommyBoy'' and ''[[Film/BlackSheep1996 Black Sheep]]''. Notably, Spade was not at Farley's funeral since, as he put it, he didn't want "to be in a room where Chris was in a box".
