7 Times Jennifer Lawrence & Bradley Cooper Showed Each Other Support, Because Everyone Loves A Good Shout-Out

If you haven't heard that Jennifer Lawrence and Bradley Cooper have a brand new movie coming out that they're starring in together, you're definitely forgiven. The film, Serena, is quiet release for two stars known for churning out hits at the box office and who are usually unstoppable when paired together in work. Also unusual is the format of its release. Though the movie will see a limited theater running starting Friday, March 27, it is mostly skipping the theaters as it went straight to Video-On-Demand on Feb. 26. This happened after the film did terribly at the London Film Festival. But while some people didn't love this movie, that doesn't mean that you can't check the film out for yourself if you want — it's available on iTunes and Google Play.

But either way, we can all take a moment to appreciate the many times these two stars have publicly shown each other support, despite not having everything go the way they want it to all the time. Everyone loves a good shout-out between famous friends, right? Get ready to enjoy, because these two have quite a few!

When He Wanted To Cast Her In All The Movies

“Jennifer is loose, present, willing and happens to be just incredibly magical on film. Just a joy to work with,” Cooper said of her stage presence in an interview with the Tampa Bay Times back in 2013. This was after he said that as a producer, he should be casting her in his films. Hard to argue with him, given his reasoning!

When She Couldn't Imagine Another Lead

“I mean, any male role is going to make me think of Bradley because in my opinion, he’s the best, and I love working with him,” Lawrence said of Cooper in a recent interview with ABC about the most latest film they appear in together.

When He Applauded Her Directness

“Her truth meter is severe. We would defer to her when we were trying to figure things out and she’d be like: Bam!” Cooper said of Lawrence while the two worked together in 2012 in an Esquire interview. No sugarcoating here, but it’s still a sweet thing to say.

When She Gave Credit Where Credit Was Due

“Bradley, you’re incredible and you made me better every single day,” Lawrence said in her acceptance speech at the 2013 Golden Globes, when she accepted her award for Best Actress.

When He Learned From Her

“I respect her so much as a professional, as an actor, and I think she’s the best there is,” Cooper said of Lawrence’s chops as an actress in an interview with Us Weekly earlier this month. “I just learn from her. You always want to work with people who are better than you.” It’s pretty big of him to say that she is better than him. You don’t find many actors out there that will admit that so freely!

When She Talked About Their Bond

“He’s my brother,” Lawrence told MTV and VH1 of Cooper while on the red carpet back in 2013. It seems like she’s a good sister, too, considering she said she was helping set up her co-star on dates at the time!

When He Reiterated Their Bond

“I love her to death,” Cooper told Entertainment Tonight of the bond they share, while denying the pair are more than just friends and co-stars. It looks like he shares the sibling feeling. He also said, “She’s amazing.” Aww. They don’t take too shabby of a family photo, I must admit!
