What a difference four years makes!
When Bradley Cooper and Renee Zellweger began filming thriller Case 39 way back in 2006, they were perfect strangers.

Now dating for over a year, the ultra-private, real-life couple opened up about getting acquainted on the horror film, in which they play a flirty but platonic social worker (Zellweger) and psychologist (Bradley).
"Can't say enough about her," Cooper, 35, raved to Entertainment Tonight. "I never met her before this movie, but I just love her. I love coming to work. I love acting with her. I can learn so much from her."

Zellweger, 41, added of her love: "He's a great actor! I just got so excited, not believing that I was going to go work with him." (Lately, Zellweger has been palling around in L.A. with Gloria Cooper, the A-Team actor's mom.)
Cooper gushed: "It's just so easy to work with her!"

The couple have been notoriously tight-lipped about their romance. In the June/July issue of Details, Cooper refused to chat about Zellweger. "I just can't," he said.
"They're so down to earth and [they] spend time with family whenever possible," a source close to the couple told Us earlier this year. "They're the real deal!" added another pal.

3Renee is a wonderful actress and, I hope, that Brad Cooper doesn't break her heart. I CAN'T BELIEVE the hurtful comments that people post. Shame on them!
She aint no heartbreaker. She's a squinty eyed parakeet!
Many men have loved Renee. Many men have been broken. She is a heart breaker, love taker, and Hollywood horror story. Why doesn't Renee go back to making movies? Movies that will win her awards. Thomas Chi Author Selling Sex to U.S. Senators
