Winona Ryder And Keanu Reeves May Be Married In Real Life

Winona Ryder And Keanu Reeves Call Each Other “Husband And Wife” Amid Real “Dracula” Wedding

Actress Winona Ryder recently shared an interesting tidbit about her relationship with fellow actor Keanu Reeves. The duo, who starred together in the 1992 film Dracula, have been playfully referring to each other as husband and wife in their text messages for over three decades. This playful banter stems from a scene in Dracula where a real Romanian Orthodox priest was used to film their characters' wedding ceremony. The use of a genuine priest has led Winona to speculate that they may have unintentionally gotten married according to Romanian Orthodox customs.

During a podcast interview, Winona expressed her admiration for Keanu, stating that she would do anything with him as he is special to her. However, she jokingly mentioned that starring in a John Wick movie might not be her cup of tea due to the extensive stunts involved. Despite this, the two actors maintain a close friendship, with Winona revealing that they exchange affectionate messages on special occasions, with Keanu always signing off with his age.

Reflecting on the Dracula filming experience, Winona disclosed that she believes they might be married in real life due to the authentic wedding ceremony conducted by the Romanian priest. The traditional Romanian wedding process involves prayers, Bible readings, and the exchange of rings, culminating in a dance around the Holy Table. Keanu, while initially unsure about the marriage claim, later acknowledged Winona's perspective and humorously accepted their marital status.

Aside from Dracula, Winona and Keanu have collaborated on other projects such as the romantic-comedy Destination Wedding and the sci-fi film A Scanner Darkly. Their enduring friendship and playful dynamic continue to captivate fans, showcasing a unique bond that transcends the boundaries of on-screen partnerships.
