People Shared Actors Whose Onscreen Chemistry Was So Real, They Deserved An Academy Award, And Yes

A while back, we asked members of our BuzzFeed Community, "If there was an Academy Award for 'Best Onscreen Chemistry in a Motion Picture,' which movie pairings would've FOR SURE taken home the gold?" and their responses were so amazing, it sparked even MORE incredible examples. So here are just a few more of the couples who would like to thank the Academy:

1. Cate Blanchett and Rooney Mara in Carol (2015)

StudioCanal

"This was literally one of the best onscreen relationships I've EVER seen."

—callmeoreo

2. Keira Knightley and James McAvoy in Atonement (2007)

Focus Features

"They should also be added to this list. When I first watched the movie, I began to wonder if they actually did fall in love in real life!"

—iamlonely



3. Tessa Thompson and Michael B. Jordan in Creed (2015)

Warner Bros. Pictures

"Such a beautiful, realistic couple. They should've given them some kind of award for sure!"

—ashols115

4. Julie Delpy and Ethan Hawke in the Before trilogy

Columbia Pictures

"They are my favorite onscreen couple of all time. Their chemistry is so natural and effortless."

—lumos47

5. Robin Wright and Cary Elwes in The Princess Bride (1987)

20th Century Fox

"I know the movie is goofy, but the chemistry between them is so pure and sweet."

—aleeh4b6e65068

6. Patricia Clarkson and Alexander Siddig in Cairo Time (2009)

Cinemien/Mongrel Media/E1 Entertainment

"I said this in the initial questionnaire and I'll say it again here:

Those two created smokin' hot chemistry in a movie with no kiss, no declaration of love, two (maybe three) non-sexual touches between them in the entire movie, yet every single scene they share is absolutely on fire with sexual tension. It's easy to make chemistry with a 30-second-long passionate kiss, but it takes incredible talent and craft to pull off that kind of chemistry without any of the traditional markers of onscreen romance."

—greyladybast

7. Deborah Kerr and Yul Brynner in The King and I (1956)

20th Century Fox

"It’s a classic, and the sexual tension between them — especially in the song 'Shall We Dance' — is fantastic."

—allisont4a163a988

8. Demi Moore and Woody Harrelson in Indecent Proposal (1993)

Paramount Pictures

"I die a little bit every time I watch this movie because their chemistry is SO good!"

—rararaaagagaoolala

9. Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt in Mr. and Mrs. Smith (2005)

20th Century Fox

"How did these two not make the first list?!"

—dawniellb

10. Eva Mendes and Will Smith in Hitch (2005)

Columbia Pictures

"I always thought they were adorable together, and incredibly believable."

—xxzombiekittiexx

11. Daisy Ridley and Adam Driver in the Star Wars sequel trilogy

LucasFilm Ltd.

"I know this is going to be unpopular, but they were absolutely heartbreaking as Rey and Ben Solo. There's a reason why a whole fandom was created around it."

—hibahchughtai

12. Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks in Sleepless in Seattle (1993)

TriStar Pictures

"I mean, honestly, any film with those two is an instant classic!"

—lajaaaam
