What are the best movies featuring Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence together?
Despite their significant age gap of 16 years, Cooper and Lawrence have displayed remarkable on-screen chemistry in their collaborations, often playing characters who share an intense connection.
In "Silver Linings Playbook," Lawrence was just 22 years old when she won the Academy Award for Best Actress, making her the second-youngest winner in that category at the time.
The dance scenes between Cooper and Lawrence in "Silver Linings Playbook" were particularly challenging, as neither of them had extensive dance experience prior to filming.
For "American Hustle," Cooper and Lawrence had to learn how to properly speak in a thick Boston accent, which they both pulled off masterfully.
In "Serena," the duo's 2014 film, they played a married couple running a timber business in 1930s North Carolina, a departure from their previous romantic comedy roles.
Both "Silver Linings Playbook" and "American Hustle" were nominated for multiple Academy Awards, with Lawrence winning the Oscar for Best Actress for the former.
In "Silver Linings Playbook," the characters played by Cooper and Lawrence are both dealing with mental health issues, which the film handles with sensitivity and nuance.
The dance sequence in the final act of "Silver Linings Playbook" was inspired by the iconic dance scenes in the 1980 film "The Idolmaker."
"American Hustle" was loosely based on the Abscam scandal of the late 1970s, a real-life FBI sting operation that targeted corruption in Congress.
Despite their successful collaborations, Cooper and Lawrence have stated in interviews that they do not have any plans for a third film together, as they prefer to explore new creative challenges with different co-stars.
