Winona Ryder and Keanu Reeves Call Each Other Husband and Wife in Text Messages After Maybe Getting Married for Real on ‘Dracula’ Set

Winona Ryder revealed on the “Happy Sad Confused” podcast that she and Keanu Reeves call each other husband and wife in their text messages, over three decades after they were maybe married for real on the set of Francis Ford Coppola’s “Dracula.”

The two actors played Jonathan and Mina Harker in the 1992 gothic horror film, and they revealed during the 2018 press tour for their romantic-comedy “Destination Wedding” that real priests were used during the filming of their “Dracula” wedding scene. So yes, Ryder and Reeves might be husband and wife and they’ve rolled with it ever since.

“I would literally do anything though with him. Like he is so special,” Ryder said about working with Reeves, although she clarified that doing a “John Wick” movie might not be for her because it “involves a lot of stunts. I’m just thinking of my bones.”

Ryder said she still texts Reeves regularly and “we always say who it is, even though it says it on the text. So like on his birthday I go: ‘Happy birthday, my husband.’ And then he’s like, ‘Hey, my wife, I love you. KR 57. Like on each birthday he’s like KR 57 or whatever his age is. He’s always done that.”

It was during a 2018 interview with Entertainment Weekly that Ryder first revealed she might actually be married to Reeves, saying: “We actually got married in ‘Dracula’. No, I swear to god I think we’re married in real life. In that scene, Francis used a real Romanian priest. We shot the master and he did the whole thing. So, I think we’re married.”

Reeves didn’t exactly remember the filming of the scene at the time but later admitted: “We did a whole take of a marriage ceremony with real priests. Winona says we are, Coppola says we are, so I guess we’re married under the eyes of God.”

In addition to “Dracula” and “Destination Wedding,” Ryder and Reeves also starred together in Richard Linklater’s “A Scanner Darkly.”

During her “Happy Sad Confused” interview, Ryder also opened up about another former co-star who made an impact on her life: Daniel Day-Lewis. The two starred together in Martin Scorsese’s 1993 drama “The Age of Innocence,” which garnered Ryder an Oscar nomination for best supporting actress.

“When I was doing the press junket for ‘Age of Innocence,’ Daniel Day-Lewis gave me the best advice because we were both like going through stuff at the time,” Ryder said. “He’s like, just keep talking so they can’t ask you [questions]…just ramble. I was like, ‘Oh!’ That was sort of funny but I am like a natural… if I connect with someone you just get to talking.”
