Two friends in a movie are not always harmonious off-screen relationships. Quite the contrary - it very often happens that two friends on the screen in life hate each other. Which of the celebrities had to play friendship on the set of a series or movie with their enemy? You did not expect this!

Joan Crawford & Bette Davis, What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?

The notorious feud between Crawford and Davis on the set of What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? was so intense that it became the subject of the first season of Ryan Murphy's anthology series, Feud. The rivalry between the Hollywood legends is said to have started when Crawford married Franchot Tone, who happened to be Davis' former love interest. "I have never forgiven her for that, and never will," Davis once remarked in an interview years later, describing her feelings towards Crawford.

David Duchovny & Gillian Anderson, The X-Files

Behind the scenes of The X-Files, tensions ran high between the actors David Duchovny (Fox) and Gillian Anderson (Dana), despite their on-screen romance in nearly every episode. According to sources from 2008, the constant interaction between the two characters throughout the show's eight series led to frequent disagreements and conflicts. One of the actors expressed that the quarrels stemmed more from familiarity breeding contempt rather than any personal issues between them.

Julia Roberts & Nick Nolte, I Love Trouble

Despite their on-screen chemistry in the film I Love Trouble, Julia Roberts and Nick Nolte reportedly had a strong dislike for each other.

Roberts, who portrayed Sabrina Peterson, later criticized Nolte (Peter Brackett) in an interview with The New York Times. She described him as "charming and nice" at times but also "completely disgusting." Roberts also revealed that they gave each other a hard time during the production of the film.

Bruce Willis & Cybill Shepherd, Moonlighting

During its five-season run, the popular 1980s show Moonlighting thrived on the constant quarrels between the two main characters, private investigators Maddie Hayes and David Addison, as a way to conceal their undeniable physical attraction. However, according to Cybill Shepherd's later revelation to Entertainment Weekly, the off-screen relationship between herself and co-star Bruce Willis was more of a strained situation: “Maintaining relationships with everyone while working on a show can be challenging. I recall a point during the show where it had gotten to the extent that we genuinely disliked each other.”

However, tensions arose among the actresses, and Teri's attempt to arrange a 2005 Vanity Fair cover shoot with the entire ensemble only seemed to exacerbate the situation. According to reports, Nicollette Sheridan referred to Hatcher as the "world's rudest lady," further fueling the animosity between them.

Despite the emphasis on family in the Fast and Furious franchise, the real-life relationship between Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and Vin Diesel is far from harmonious.

Additionally, reports surfaced claiming that Diesel influenced producers to remove a post-credit scene from Fate that would have set up a spin-off featuring Johnson and Jason Statham.

Taylor Momsen & Leighton Meester, Gossip Girl

In the series Gossip Girl, tensions didn't only arise between Serena and Blair. There were also reported conflicts between Taylor Momsen and Leighton Meester.

Leighton's songs, such as Good Girls Go Bad and Somebody To Love, were featured in two seasons of Gossip Girl, and her music video for Somebody To Love even premiered on the CW show. However, none of Momsen's music was used, causing friction between the two actresses.

Channing Tatum & Alex Pettyfer, Magic Mike

According to Pettyfer, there seems to be some animosity between the two actors. Pettyfer has openly admitted that Tatum does not like him, and he takes responsibility for it, acknowledging that he is at fault. The tension between them reportedly stems from Pettyfer renting an apartment from a friend of Tatum's and failing to pay several months' worth of rent before moving out. Tatum confronted Pettyfer about this matter through an email, understandably addressing the issue.

Jerome Flynn & Lena Headey, Game of Thrones

The tension between Lena Headey and Jerome Flynn, who both appeared in Game of Thrones, was not caused by any conflicts related to the show itself.

Headey and Flynn dated in the early 2000s, and according to sources close to the couple, their breakup was so acrimonious that they have been unable to communicate with each other ever since. A member of the Game of Thrones team revealed to The Telegraph that Headey and Flynn are no longer friends and go to great lengths to avoid being in the same room together. Despite efforts to reconcile their differences at one point, it seems they are now advised to be kept apart under any circumstances.

In his response, Monaghan didn't hold back and publicly stated, "He is a woman beater. Thank you, but no thanks." This statement shed light on the strained relationship between the two actors.

Ariana Grande & Jennette McCurdy, Sam & Cat

Grande and McCurdy rose to prominence through their roles in Victorious and iCarly, respectively.

However, their collaboration came to an abrupt halt when explicit photos of McCurdy were leaked online in March 2014. McCurdy chose to skip the Kid's Choice Awards, leading many to speculate that it was a consequence of the leak. However, TMZ reported that McCurdy's absence from the event was actually due to her discovery that Grande was being paid a significantly higher amount than her for their work on Sam and Cat.

Lucille Ball & Vivian Vance, The Lucy Show

During its run from 1962 to 1968, The Lucy Show featured a dynamic cast, with Lucille Ball and Vivian Vance as co-stars for the first three seasons. However, there was some tension between Ball and Vance throughout their collaboration.

Jason Segel & Alyson Hannigan, How I Met Your Mother

Despite their characters' strong romantic connection on How I Met Your Mother, Alyson Hannigan and Jason Segel had a strict no-kissing policy on set. This was primarily due to Hannigan's aversion to tobacco smoke, as Segel was a smoker. In a 2008 interview, Hannigan candidly expressed her dislike for the smell and taste of tobacco smoke, likening it to "kissing an ashtray." Although Segel made efforts to freshen his breath with gum or mints, it didn't alleviate the issue for Hannigan. As a result, they decided to avoid on-screen kissing scenes to accommodate Hannigan's sensitivity to tobacco smoke.

He shared how being on set with a leading lady who was dissatisfied with his presence and made it clear from the very beginning made it a challenging and difficult situation.

More than twenty years have passed since the premiere of the first season of Sex and the City, a show celebrated for its lavish fashion and romantic storylines.

Marlyn Monroe & Tony Curtis, Some Like It Hot

Tony Curtis took a less than pleasant route when asked about his experience kissing his co-star, Marilyn Monroe, in the film Some Like It Hot. Rather than offering a positive response, he described it as "like kissing [a tyrant]." Prior to filming, Curtis and Monroe had been in a romantic relationship, but their feelings had changed once they started shooting. Curtis noted that Monroe's behavior had become erratic, saying, "She'd gone funny. Her mind was all over the place." He then went on to discuss a specific scene on a yacht where they had to kiss, describing it as "horrendous."

Dirty Dancing is undoubtedly a beloved classic, known for its memorable soundtrack and mesmerizing dance sequences. The on-screen chemistry between Jennifer Grey's character, Baby, and Patrick Swayze's character, Johnny, is undeniable. However, behind the scenes, their relationship was far from harmonious. It is said that they would frequently engage in arguments before filming each scene. Despite the tension, Jennifer Grey has acknowledged that their clashes actually contributed to their scintillating on-screen chemistry. Since the film's release, Grey has only expressed positive sentiments about her late co-star, Patrick Swayze.

Dustin Hoffman & Meryl Streep, Kramer vs. Kramer

The tension between Dustin Hoffman and Meryl Streep on the set of the 1979 Oscar-winning film was more akin to a clash between actors rather than the characters they portrayed in Kramer vs. Kramer. The book Her Again: Becoming Meryl Streep, released in April 2016, shed light on the intense conflict that unfolded during the film's production. Hoffman, known for his method acting approach in portraying Ted Kramer, went as far as slapping then-up-and-coming actress Streep (playing Joanna Kramer) across the face during a heated scene. He also made provocative comments about her late boyfriend, John Cazale, who had passed away from lung cancer.

Kenny Baker and Anthony Daniels, Star Wars

The strained relationship between the characters C-3PO and R2-D2 in the Star Wars films was well-known, yet it was clear that the two droids had a certain level of care for each other. However, the same cannot be said for the actors who portrayed them, Kenny Baker and Anthony Daniels. Despite being the only two actors to appear in all of the franchise's movies (until Baker's death in 2016), they never formed a strong connection. Over the years, they frequently exchanged jabs and criticisms. Nevertheless, when Baker passed away, Daniels expressed his condolences on Twitter, showing a moment of respect despite their differences.

The initial release of Iron Man marked a significant success for the Marvel Cinematic Universe. However, despite the apparent harmony during the production of the first film, the atmosphere had soured by the time the sequel was in development. Terrence Howard, who portrayed Colonel James Rhodey Rhodes in the first installment, was replaced by Don Cheadle for Iron Man 2 due to salary disputes. Howard attributed this decision to his co-star Robert Downey Jr., but Downey has denied any involvement, stating, “I had nothing to do with that decision.”
