Mare Winningham and Anthony Edwards met on a movie set

The couple first met each other 35 years ago while screen testing for the lead roles of the 1985 romantic-comedy film The Sure Thing.

Although John Cusack and Daphne Zuniga bagged the roles, Mare and Anthony got a chance to reunite on the set of Miracle Mile, their apocalyptic thriller romance from 1988.

Although the actors married different people, they remained close friends during their respective marriages as well as during their separations.
