Leo Rooster and Virgo Rat

Greta Gerwig (8/4/1983, Leo Pig), Noah Baumbach (9/3/1969, Virgo Rooster) : Actor/screenwriter/director Gerwig and director/screenwriter Baumbach worked together on the film, Greenberg (2010). They later became romantically involved, and have one child together. They continued to collaborate multiple times, including the films, Frances Ha (2013), Mistress America (2015), and White Noise (2022). They have also achieved notable independent successes during their relationship—at the 2020 Oscars, the films, Little Women (2019, written and directed by Gerwig) and Marriage Story (2019, written and directed by Baumbach) were each nominated for six awards. In 2019, Baumbach described, "I think the pleasure of writing for us is that it seeps into everything. I’d show [Gerwig] a cut of my movie, and then a few months later, I’m watching her movie. I don’t want to sound sickeningly happy, but it’s a truly great thing to watch someone you love make something and love the thing they make. I don’t know how else to say it without saying great a lot."

Audrey Tautou (8/9/1976, Leo Dragon), Jean-Pierre Jeunet (9/3/1953, Virgo Snake) : The actor Tatou and director Jeunet, both from France, memorably collaborated on the films, Amélie (2001), and A Very Long Engagement (2004). They have also worked together on a series of commercials for the perfume, Chanel No. 5. In 2018 joint interview, Tautou described: "[Jeunet and I] just need to look at each other on set and we understand. We always agree about a take." Jeunet said, "[Tautou is] the perfect actress because now we know she can do everything from drama to very light comedy. That’s pretty rare. She has a great sense of timing. And, of course, she’s very special with her face, like an elf...I made one or two mistakes on Amelie and she told me and I didn’t believe her but in the editing room I saw that she was right. Now I always listen to her."

Dustin Hoffman (8/8/1937, Leo Ox), Lisa Hoffman (9/1/1954, Virgo Horse) : Celebrated actor Dustin Hoffman and businesswoman Lisa Hoffman have been married since 1980 and have four children. They have known each other for a lifetime—his mother is friends with her grandmother—and got together as a couple when he was 38 and she 22. Lisa Hoffman described in 2017: "We work hard at [our marriage]. I knew I was going to end up with Dusty, and that my life would be traveling around with him. I say in Hollywood it is like dog years, so you have to multiply [our 37 years together] by seven." In 2016, she said, "That was an obstacle to overcome, that this is not a celebrity brand. I am so far from a celebrity, I just happen to be married to an actor."

Antonio Banderas (8/10/1960, Leo Rat), Salma Hayek (9/2/1966, Virgo Horse) : Mexican actor Hayek and Spanish actor Banderas have been friends for over 20 years. They have collaborated multiple times, including the films, Desperado (1995), Frida (2002), Once Upon a Time in Mexico (2003), Puss in Boots (2011), and Puss in Boots: The Last Wish (2022). Describing a love scene in their first movie together, Desperado, Hayek said in 2021: "One of the things I was afraid of was Antonio — he was an absolute gentleman and so nice, and we’re still super close friends — but he was very free. It scared me that for him, it was like nothing. I started crying, and he was like, ‘Oh my God. You’re making me feel terrible.’ And I was so embarrassed that I was crying." Banderas described in 2022: "[W]e practically started together in the industry here in America. We were coming from our own countries, so we met each other at the beginning of this road...[Hayek is] a real friend. Every time that we’ve been working together, immediately there is a chemistry that is very difficult to explain. I don’t want to intellectualize it. It just happens, and it’s great."

Barack Obama (8/4/1961, Leo Ox), John McCain (8/29/1936, Virgo Rat) : The 44th US President and longstanding US Senator were opponents for the presidency in the 2008 US election. Months before he died in 2018, McCain invited Obama to speak at his funeral. In his eulogy, Obama described: "We didn’t advertise it, but every so often over the course of my presidency, John would come over to the White House, and we’d just sit and talk in the Oval Office, just the two of us – we’d talk about policy and we’d talk about family and we’d talk about the state of our politics. And our disagreements didn’t go away during these private conversations. Those were real, and they were often deep. But we enjoyed the time we shared away from the bright lights. And we laughed with each other, and we learned from each other. We never doubted the other man’s sincerity or the other man’s patriotism, or that when all was said and done, we were on the same team. We never doubted we were on the same team."

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."
