Russell Crowe and Ridley Scott

[Grisle]

I was just browsing through new movies over at IMDB and I noticed that Ridley Scott's last 2 films and his next 2 all star Russell Crowe:

Nottingham (2009) (pre-production) (attached)
Body of Lies (2008) (post-production)
American Gangster (2007)
A Good Year (2006)

He's also used him in The Gladiator. It's shaping up to be another relationship like Burton and Depp. I've also noticed that Tony Scott has used Denzel Washington a few times...what other actors and directors can you remember working together 3, 4, 5 times or more?

Also is anyone looking forward to Body of Lies...it also stars DiCaprio.

DiCaprio and Scorsese

James Cameron often "re-uses" actors:

Arnie 3 times (Terminator, T2, True Lies)
Michael Biehn 3 times (Aliens, Terminator, The Abyss)
Bill Paxton 4 times (Terminator, Aliens, True Lies, Titanic)

[Grisle]

I was just a bit more surprised that they worked together on 4 films in a row.

Don't forget Gladiator in 2000

[Grisle]

Yeah I mentioned that right under the other movies.

David Lynch (Dir.) & Kyle MacLachlan (Actor)... They have teamed up quite a few times together.

Michael Biehn 3 times (Aliens, Terminator, The Abyss)
Bill Paxton 4 times (Terminator, Aliens, True Lies, Titanic)

The lady who played Vasquez was in Titanic
Lance Henrikson in T1 and Aliens
Sigourney Weaver in Avatar and Aliens

Michael Biehn would have been in Avatar, but Cameron didn't want to turn it into Aliens redux

Woody Allen and Diane Keaton
Harrison Ford and George Lucas

Coen Bros. Like to re-use actor as well John Turturro, Steve Buscemi, Peter Stormare, etc.

You can never have enough Crowe. I like it when the directors grow fond of specific actors. It shows a certain approachability on both parties behalf.

Emma Thompson in anything that Kenneth Brannagh did when they were married.

The joke goes:-

Emma to Kenneth "What are you doing Darling?".
Reply "I'm in the Kitchen"
Emma to Kenneth "Can I be in the Kitchen too darling"
