Leo Rooster and Leo Rat

Kevin Smith (8/2/1970, Leo Dog), Ben Affleck (8/15/1972, Leo Rat) : The director and actor were frequent collaborators in the 1990s, working together on movies including Mallrats, Chasing Amy, and Dogma. After a period of estrangement, they reunited for Jay and Silent Bob Reboot in 2019. Smith has recounted: "I was scared to be rejected, but I texted [Affleck], 'To paraphrase the sad old King Osric in Conan the Barbarian? There comes a time when the jewels cease to sparkle, when the gold loses its luster, when the throne room becomes a prison, and all that is left is a director’s love for the people he used to make pretend with.' And after a long beat of wondering how he’d receive this, my estranged friend wrote back as only he could: 'Of course you still liken yourself to a king,' he joked. And then ‘Would be a pleasure to see you again, Old Man.'"

Jennifer Lawrence (8/15/1990, Leo Horse), David O. Russell (8/20/1958, Leo Dog) : The actor and director have collaborated multiple times to great acclaim, including the movies, Silver Linings Playbook, American Hustle, and Joy. In a joint interview/conversation, Lawrence said to O'Russell: "I was so young and inexperienced. By the time I got to you, you shaped me. Watching our movies, everything I’ve learned, I’ve taken through my entire career. I was so amazed by you, and just open. You wrote it and I’d do it and you’d tell me how to do it better." O'Russell replied: "You showed up as a raw talent with no neurosis and no self-consciousness. She was completely fearless...She has a certain energy that hasn’t been in movies in a while. Young and old and loose and powerful and focused. You walk in 20 minutes into the movie and you take over the movie."

Laurence Fishburne (7/30/1961, Leo Ox), Angela Bassett (8/16/1958, Leo Dog) : The two actors have been widely praised for their collaborations, which include the films, Boyz n the Hood (1991), What's Love Got To Do With It (1993), and Akeelah and the Bee (2006), as well as a stage production of Fences. Fishburne has described: "I don’t know how to explain it. The word that people use is ‘chemistry,’ that Angela and I just have a chemistry that is undeniable and innate. But I think it is really born out of the fact that we both love what we do. And when we come together, we make room for each other to really, really use all of our abilities and all of our talents. We complement each other."

Natasha Henstridge (8/15/1974, Leo Tiger), Darius Campbell Danesh (8/19/1980, Leo Monkey) : The actor and singer were involved in an on-off relationship for around 12 years in total from 2004 to 2016, and for a time co-parented Henstridge's two children from a previous relationship. Danesh, who died tragically at 41 in August 2022, described after their break-up: "It was a long distance relationship for half of it. That in itself was an amazing experience, but a painful one. When you love someone you want to be with them...So I have nothing but gratitude for this relationship. And we'll be there for one another if the chips are down."

Antonio Banderas (8/10/1960, Leo Rat), Melanie Griffith (8/9/1957, Leo Rooster) : The two actors were married from 1996 to 2015. They had a daughter together and helped to raise Griffiths' two children from previous marriages.

In recent times they have both spoken fondly of one another. In 2016, Madonna attended Penn's Help Haiti Home Gala, saying, "I want to say [to] Sean that I loved you from the moment that I laid eyes on you. And I still love you just the same." Interviewed in 2018, Penn said simply, "I love my first wife very much."

They reunited for the album Raise the Roof in 2021. Speaking of their original collaboration, Plant described: "We've got our own individual strengths, and it's a miracle that they can ever meld. But they do. In the beginning it was difficult, because I wasn't used to being tutored and, 'Why don't you do it like this?' And I just thought, 'Oh, baby!' Still, I like it. I like the idea of learning new stuff… I felt so much more accomplished when it started to work good."

Nastassja Kinski (1/24/1961, Aquarius Rat), Quincy Jones (3/14/1933, Pisces Rooster) : The actor and music producer lived together for four years until 1995 and had a daughter, the model Kenya Kinski-Jones. Kinski described in 1997, "For me, Quincy was someone who told me what to do and what was right...He was always there when I needed him and someone I could talk to and argue with. In a Freudian way he was the father I never had...It is a bit of an obstacle because you want to grow together in a healthy relationship...But I'm grateful for the time we had. I'm sure being with Quincy helped me become a better mother, a better human being."

Marlon Brando (4/3/1924, Aries Rat), Elia Kazan (9/7/1909, Virgo Rooster) : The actor and director collaborated multiple times, including on the classic films A Streetcar Named Desire and On the Waterfront. Speaking about the legendary scene in On the Waterfront where Brando's character says, "I could've been a contender," Kazan described: "I didn't direct that scene, really....They're perfectly-written lines [by screenwriter Budd Schulberg]. And Marlon naturally took to them....I think [Brandon and I] had a instinctive fraternity. I think we understood each other, almost from the word go, very well. And we would talk a lot about other things, but not a hell of a lot about the role...[H]e didn't need much instruction....[I'm not] being falsely modest. I think I'm a damn good director and have been a damn good director. But in this scene, I didn't direct that scene much - very little. I just put them there and so on."

Meghan Markle (8/4/1981, Leo Rooster), Prince Harry (9/15/1984, Virgo Rat) : The British prince and US actor married in 2018 and have two children. They have dominated the news during the early 2020s, including notably an interview with Oprah Winfrey, the Netflix documentary series Harry & Meghan, and the publication of Harry's book, Spare. Early in the relationship, Prince Harry described: "I fell in love with Meghan so incredibly quickly — it was a confirmation to me that all the stars were aligned. This beautiful woman literally tripped and fell into my life. I fell into her life and the fact that she will be unbelievably good at the job part of it as well is obviously a huge relief to me because she'll be able to deal with everything else that comes with it."

Thandie Newton (11/6/1972, Scorpio Rat), Ol Parker (6/2/1969, Gemini Rooster) : The actor and director married in 1998 and have three children together. Newton has described: "[Parker is] [s]oooo calm. And we laugh, because I take the piss out of him. You know: shoulder-shrugging: 'It’s OK, babe.' And he takes the piss out of my … What would you describe it as? Highly emotional. As I’m thinking, the words will come. I don’t stop and think.' [with mock grandeur] Never been my way! That’s what it’s like in our house. A lot of music as well."

Ben Affleck (8/15/1972, Leo Rat), Jennifer Lopez (7/24/1969, Leo Rooster) : The two actors were one of the highest-profile couples in the world when they dated and got engaged in the early 2000s. After separating and building families with other partners, they reunited in 2021 and married in 2022. Lopez wrote about their wedding: "When he saw me appear at the top of the stairs that moment it both made absolute sense while seeming still impossibly hard to believe, like the best dream, where all you want is never to awaken...when I got close enough to see his face, it made the same wonderful sense to me. Some old wounds were healed that day and the weight of the past finally lifted off our shoulders. Full-circle — and not at all the way we planned it. Better."

Bridget Everett (4/21/1972, Taurus Rat), Amy Schumer (6/1/1981, Gemini Rooster) : The two comedians have been frequent collaborators, with Everett appearing in the Schumer-written film Trainwreck and all three finales of the show Inside Amy Schumer. Everett was asked in an interview about Schumer's rejection of the label "plus-size" being applied to her. Everett responded: "[Schumer's] reaction was just she's not plus size because she's not plus-sized...I am plus size. I am a big girl...Amy was the first person to tell me that I look beautiful and strong. There is no negative connotation to her about somebody being plus size. We never discussed this, but knowing Amy, I know that she doesn't want young girls or women that look up to her thinking that they are plus size — or fat — when they are a physically fit, strong size six to eight. It makes no sense...Amy is slim and trim and rock-hard and ready to go."
