Compatibility
Aquarius Dragon and Aries Rooster

Gregory Peck (4/5/1916, Aries Dragon), Veronique Passani (2/5/1932, Aquarius Sheep) : The Hollywood icon met his second wife when she interviewed him for a French publication. They were married for 48 years until his death in 2003 at age 87. During their marriage, Passani described: "Gregory can be as quiet as a meditating monk. But he can also talk a blue streak. He is very sophisticated; he also is a person of basically simple tastes. He is methodical—and also unregimented...He is conservative about financial matters. But he can spend money with reckless abandon. In other words, he [is] more complex and contradictory than Hollywood shows him." Peck said about their relationship, "When I’m overtaken with myself and think that something’s very heavy to deal with, she will pull off an imitation of me in a dark mood and suddenly I’ll find myself laughing."

Heath Ledger (4/4/1979, Aries Sheep), Heather Graham (1/29/1970, Aquarius Rooster) : The two actors dated in the early 2000s, and Graham continues to reflect fondly on her former love who died tragically young. "Just remembering this time," Graham wrote in 2021. "Heath Ledger was such a special person."

David Tennant (4/18/1971, Aries Pig), Michael Sheen (2/5/1969, Aquarius Monkey) : The two British actors bonded during the making of the show Good Omens, then reunited for the successful lockdown TV series Staged. Discussing their collaboration on Good Omens, Sheen described: "I like the choices that David makes and I think he felt the same way, so there was a similar taste. So, it was a really lovely opportunity. But like I say, even with all of that, you still don't know if there's going to be actual chemistry - we've known each other for a long time so we knew we liked each other, but working together is a different thing...It is quite rare and we were very fortunate."

Matthew Broderick (3/21/1962, Aries Tiger), Nathan Lane (2/3/1956, Aquarius Sheep) : The two actors famously co-starred in the Broadway production, The Producers, which ran for 2,502 performances. They teamed up again on Broadway for It's Only a Play (2014). Asked about their frequent collaborations, Broderick described: "Nathan’s laser-like precision and his atomic-clock timing are exhilarating, and you know that this is a precious rare opportunity to mix it up with a great one. I can’t wait to see what he does in the years to come; I look forward to watching him and even more, taking the field right next to him."

Vince Vaughn (3/28/1970, Aries Dog), Jennifer Aniston (2/11/1969, Aquarius Monkey) : These celebrity A-listers had a short-lived but high-profile relationship in the early 2000s, following Aniston's divorce from Brad Pitt. "I call Vince my defibrillator," Aniston said later. "He literally brought me back to life."

Reese Witherspoon (3/22/1976, Aries Dragon), Kerry Washington (1/31/1977, Aquarius Dragon) : The two actors memorably appeared together in Little Fires Everywhere. Washington described, "[I]t has been exciting for me to do this...To be working with a woman like Reese, who is not afraid to take up space, who's not afraid for the other women around her to take up just as much space and to have a voice as loud as hers."

Amy Wright (4/15/1950, Aries Tiger), Rip Torn (2/6/1931, Aquarius Horse) : The two actors were married for 30 years, from 1989 until his death in 2019, and had two children together. Their relationship was famously unconventional—they had a child together while Torn was married to the actor Geraldine Page (to whom Torn was married until Page's death in 1987), and both collaborated with Page on a series of stage productions. Wright described shortly before their marriage: "[Torn] is a lusty guy. He likes to have a good time, to laugh and drink and eat. He likes women. People think of him as a hot-tempered person, but he is really rather gentle. Our problem is that we come from different generations and different cultures. That makes it hard to communicate sometimes."

Rashida Jones (2/25/1976, Pisces Dragon), Quincy Jones (3/14/1933, Pisces Rooster) : The actor/film-maker made the acclaimed documentary Quincy about her father, the legendary music producer. Speaking about footage showing Quincy recovering in hospital, Rashida explained: "I am so protective of my dad, and obviously, that’s a very intimate story to tell. My brother shot some of that stuff in the hospital, and then I shot some. Really, we did it for him, because we wanted him to be able to see where he was so that he wouldn’t forget and he would take care of himself."

Rosie Perez (9/6/1964, Virgo Dragon), Spike Lee (3/20/1957, Pisces Rooster) : The actor and director first met in the late 1980s when Lee cast Perez in the film Do the Right Thing. Celebrating the anniversary of the film Perez told a crowd of fans, "30 years ago, I met this man and he changed my life. And we need men like him in Hollywood. And we are doing it and we are going to take over, baby. And it takes a man like Spike Lee to help push those doors down. And I appreciate that. I am getting emotional because he literally changed my life. And I thank you."

Benedict Cumberbatch (7/19/1976, Cancer Dragon), Tom Hiddleston (2/9/1981, Aquarius Rooster) : The actors have been friends for over ten years. Commenting on his experience working with and observing Cumberbatch, Hiddleston described: "Over the ten or so years I’ve known him what stands out is his limitless curiosity. He’s keenly aware that life is short and precious, and his range comes from the depth of his internal world."

Melia McEnery (2/1/1976, Aquarius Dragon), Eric Clapton (3/30/1945, Aries Rooster) : The legendary musician and philanthropist have been married for 18 years and have three children together. Clapton has described how before he met McEnery he suffered from addiction and used relationships with women as a form of escapism. Speaking about their meeting, Clapton said: "There was something about her... strength. She occupied her space with absolute authority. It was clear that even though she was half my age she was capable of being an adequate partner for anybody."

John Lennon (10/9/1940, Libra Dragon), Yoko Ono (2/18/1933, Aquarius Rooster) : The famous musicians and artists were committed peace activists who married in 1969. Their intense bond has attracted controversy with many attributing the break up of the Beatles in part to their relationship. Less than three months before his murder in December 1980, Lennon described his connection with Ono in an interview: "It is a teacher-pupil relationship. That's what people don't understand. She's the teacher and I'm the pupil. I'm the famous one, the one who's supposed to know everything, but she's my teacher. She's taught me everything I [expletive] know."

Neneh Cherry (3/10/1964, Pisces Dragon), Cameron McVey (3/11/1957, Pisces Rooster) : The musicians are long term collaborators and partners of over 30 years. Commenting on their evolving relationship, Cherry has explained: "I still feel like there’s more to it. I know that we’re not done and that’s really interesting. We’re still getting to know each other but he definitely knows my digits, you know what I mean? I think it’s a treasure to have relationships for life."

Gwen Stefani (10/03/1969, Libra Rooster), Blake Shelton (06/18/1976, Gemini Dragon) : The two singers married in 2021. They had both been involved in high-profile marriages to fellow musicians—Stefani to Gavin Rossdale, and Shelton to Miranda Lambert—when they worked together as coaches on The Voice during 2015, and began dating. They have since collaborated on multiple occasions, including the songs, "Go Ahead and Break My Heart" (2016), "You Make It Feel Like Christmas" (2017), "Nobody But You" (2020), and "Happy Anywhere" (2020). Shortly before their marriage, Stefani described: "I think there was a lot to consider when you have so many people involved. Children, and their hearts, and everybody in my family [and] his family, we all went through a lot together. So I think in a romantic way, when you fall in love so hard and so unexpectedly — and so late in your life — you think 'I want to marry you!' That's the first romantic reaction, like, 'Let's get married.' So we always talked about it, of course, and I think that as the years were going by, it didn't need to happen. There was a lot of healing to do."

Sandra Bullock (7/26/1964, Leo Dragon), Matthew McConaughey (11/4/1969, Scorpio Rooster) : The two actors dated after meeting on a movie set in 1996 and have remained close friends. Describing their relationship, Bullock has commented, "There's a great amount of respect and love. I feel very cared for by Matthew. No matter where he is in his life or where I am in mine—he could be married—I know we would stay close."
