17 On-Screen Couples Whose Age Gaps Will Leave You In Shock
It is often assumed that the age gap will make it difficult for couples to maintain long-term harmony in their relationship. There might be differences in their thinking and behaviors and the way they treat one another as well. However, many people believe that age is not a barrier to love if both individuals truly love each other.
In Hollywood movies, "age is just a number" is the obvious case. It’s not surprising for an older male actor to play the soulmate of a young lady.
Here we take a look at some of the movie couples whose age gaps are just too much for us to handle. They are separated in age by two or three decades, which is really astounding. Do you know that Liam Neeson was 61 and Olivia Wilde was when filming "Third Person"? Or Tom Skerritt and Drew Barrymore in the movie Poison Ivy are 41 years apart?
