The Greatest Hollywood Power Couples of All Time—Ranked

From Taylor and Burton to Holland and Zendaya, Newsweek ranks the 10 greatest Hollywood power couples of all time.

The year 2026 has seen Tom Holland and Zendaya reach new heights as one of Hollywood's most prominent power couples. Their on-screen chemistry in Spider-Man: Brand New Day and Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey resulted in record-breaking domestic and global box office successes. The couple's status as Hollywood's dominant power couple was further solidified by their combined box office power, awards recognition, and lasting influence on popular culture.

However, determining the exact ranking of Hollywood power couples is subjective and based on factors such as individual stardom, box office influence, awards, cultural impact, and longevity. The ranking of the top 10 couples includes Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell, who have been together for over four decades and have never married, Javier Bardem and Penélope Cruz, known for their international reach and acting achievements, Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively, whose combined box office success and social media presence have made them a prominent contemporary couple, Bruce Willis and Demi Moore, whose marriage coincided with their peak commercial success in the 1990s, Tom Holland and Zendaya, whose current commercial success and critical acclaim have established them as a notable duo, Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall, who formed a "real-life love story" during Hollywood's Golden Age and had a lasting impact on the industry, and Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez, also known as Bennifer, who captured widespread media attention during their relationship and have continued to enjoy success in their individual careers.
