Over 25 years ago the two actors starred opposite each other in Francis Ford Coppola’s adaptation of Bram Stoker’s Dracula.
Reeves played Jonathan Harker and Ryder portrayed Mina Murray in the film that saw Gary Oldman star as the infamous vampire.
But in one scene Harker and Murray get married in Romania and Coppola actually hired a real priest, leading Ryder to believe she’s actually now past her silver wedding anniversary with Reeves.
After all the priest performed a real wedding service and both said their ‘I dos”.
Speaking with Entertainment Weekly, Ryder said: “We actually got married in Dracula. “No, I swear to God I think we’re married in real life.
“In that scene, Francis [Ford Coppola] used a real Romanian priest.
“We shot the master and he did the whole thing. So, I think we’re married.”
Ryder was taking part in an interview with Reeves for their new rom-com, Destination Wedding, when she said this.
Reeves, not so convinced, joked: “It’s lovely to see you again.”
But Ryder explained how they both said their “I dos”.
She added: “Don’t you remember that? It was on Valentine’s Day.”
Reeves responded: “Oh my gosh, we’re married.”
Destination Wedding sees the pair play two strangers at a mutual friends wedding who hit it off.
The film is set for a US release at the end of the month.
