Binge-Worthy Iconic Movie Franchises And How Long It Takes

On-screen chemistry has always proven to be interesting! Sometimes the chemistry translates off-screen while other times the on-screen couples prove to be really great friends and nothing more. We have a list of 17 couples who had amazing on-screen chemistry!

17. Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio from “Titanic”

Off-screen Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio are good friends who have never been interested in each other romantically, which is surprising if you have watched them in “Titanic!” Their relationship on-screen is extraordinarily passionate, but it is all acting in spite of rumors floating around suggesting that there is something off-screen as well.

16. Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger from “Brokeback Mountain”

Jake Gyllenhaal and Heath Ledger in “Brokeback Mountain” had great emotional chemistry. The relationship between Gyllenhaal and Ledger was so convincing that it was shocking to learn that Ledger was in fact dating Michelle Williams – who happened to play his wife in the film. We suppose that Ledger and Williams’ chemistry off-screen didn’t interfere with the lack of chemistry they were supposed to demonstrate on-screen!
