Rachel Weisz has fallen “head over heals” for Daniel Craig
On Tuesday, the actress announced her split from husband Darren Aronofsky, with whom she raises a four-year-old son, Henry Chance. Britain’s Daily Mail newspaper says Weisz and Craig grew close while they played husband and wife in forthcoming thriller Dream House.
“Rachel and Daniel simply sparked during the filming of Dream House in Canada,” a source said.
“They have great chemistry. Darren’s such a good and responsible man, but Daniel’s the opposite extreme, he’s brooding and mysterious. Darren and Rachel have simply grown apart, they spent long periods away from each other, moving in different directions.”
Rachel and director Darren, 41, previously worked together on 2006’s The Fountain and were also planning to team up for Jackie, a biopic of former American First Lady Jackie Kennedy.
The 40-year-old actress has previously spoken about how much she enjoyed leading a “normal” life with her partner and son.
“Of course, it’s not ordinary to get dressed in frocks to walk down red carpets and travel all over the world and stay in five-star hotels,” she said.
“I’m not working in a factory. But I drop Henry off at school, I pick him up. I try my hardest to keep everyone together.
“I am interested in playing extra-ordinary women, but I have an ordinary life.”
