Daniel Craig and Rachel Weisz may be one of the most beautiful and mysterious couples in Hollywood but their relationship did not exactly have the most enigmatic of beginnings. Even thoughTheMummyactress and the Bond actor have been married happily since 2011, the pair’s prior relationships with other people have formed a web of intricately connected Hollywood figures that link toTitanicfamed Kate Winslet as well asBlack Swandirector, Darren Aronofsky. And at the heart of it lies James Bond himself.

In the early Aughts, Hollywood was stepping out of its era of decadence – the pinnacle of which was reached by the industry stars during the 90s. News, media, and tabloid would flash almost every day with headlines that not only peddled to the masses the raging obsession of stars with hard substances but the era was a bespoke generation that saw trendsetters and the likes of Depp & Ryder, Depp & Moss, Pitt & Paltrow, Pitt & Aniston, and of course, Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman.
Once the 2000s came around, a pall of stability shrouded Hollywood. TheTitanicactress,Kate Winslettied the knot in 2003 withSkyfalldirector,Sam Mendes, whileRachel Weiszand Darren Aronofsky after meeting each other in 2001 began dating and later maintained a five-year-long engagement from 2005 to 2010. The same year Weisz and Aronofsky called it quits, tabloids flashed with headlines about Sam Mendes stepping out on Kate Winslet which automatically took to insinuate that the would-be Bond director was somehow linked to Rachel Weisz, a rumor that painted Weisz as the other woman and Winslet as the victim of heartbreak.

However, despite the rumors, it wasDaniel Craigwho captured Rachel Weisz’s heart and within a year of breaking her engagement with Aronofsky, the actress was married to Craig with whom she now shares a daughter. Sam Mendes did express interest in Weisz to star in one of his movies but it was Daniel Craig who ended up being the lead of his next project,Skyfall, which was filmed the same year Craig and Weisz tied the knot. The movie went on to become the highest-grossing Bond film of all time.

As for upcoming projects,Knives Out 3is currently in development (slated to come out in 2024), and a yet-untitled sequel to the animated filmAdventures of Tintinis set to premiere in 2027.
