Actors Who Dreaded Kissing Their Co-Stars On Screen

Ryan Gosling Tried to Get Rachel McAdams Fired

Gosling wouldn’t even read lines for Rachel if he wasn’t in the shot. At the height of their rivalry, Gosling tried to get McAdams fired and replaced. Thankfully, this didn’t happen, and the two ended up falling for one another anyway.
