19 TV and Movie Couples You Can’t Believe Were Born Decades or Even Generations Apart

It is said that age is nothing but a number and this is definitely true in Hollywood Movies. It’s pretty common for actors to portray actors who aren’t exactly the same age. For actresses, youth unfortunately still rules supreme in Hollywood, while male actors don’t face that same scrutiny. So, we often see that in most movies, an older male actor plays the love interest of a woman who is much younger than him.
This trend doesn’t seemingly disappear soon though it’s quite weird looking back at these relationships where viewers weren’t supposed to think anything of it. But we're sure that it becomes a huge shock for them when the truth is revealed.
Here are 19 TV and movie couples who have major age gaps but that couldn't prevent them from becoming on-screen couples. If you're looking for more, read this article.
