Oh man, didn't know they were doing a series. Bummer, because this would've been a fantastic Wes Anderson movie. Always pictured it like that whilst reading.

Oh damn I actually had no idea. Between that and Kirsten Dunst/Jesse Plemons it seems like Fargo is quite the matchmaker of a TV show.

They probably didn’t enjoy their father having an affair and ending a 20 year marriage with their mother.
Former_Advert t1_j9k28aa wrote
Where are you getting your information that they had an affair? I'm finding some sources that say McGregor and Winstead were pictured together in October 2017, five or six months after him and his ex-wife separated, but I'm not able to find a source for an affair.
So, source?
Edit: Legit being downvoted for asking for a source.
Owasso_Landman t1_j9k2s7h wrote
When pictures appeared of married Ewan McGregor kissing his Fargo co-star Mary Elizabeth Winstead in 2017, his daughter Clara branded her a 'piece of trash', adding, for good measure, that her father was an 'a***hole'.

Uh, the McGregor-Winstead hook up on Fargo also resulted in both of them ruining their long-term marriages. McGregor’s wife of 25 years left him after finding out about the affair.

Casting directors are good at chemistry. They intentionally cast actors who work well together, and have a charismatic spark between them.
It’s no wonder so many result in hook ups, even if that’s not intentional.

I thought they'd split up years ago, because he was in all the newspapers dating another woman just before they started filming Birds Of Prey, which I remember pointing out to a friend that they never had a scene together in that film because of it.

Fair enough but it's a slightly weird anecdote given the context of the conversation.

Obviously this person isn't the most attentive watcher but I can imagine someone knowing who Ewan McGregor is and not recognising him by face.
I would bet there's a significant number of people who only know him from Star Wars and he does look quite different with a shaved face and darker hair.

I remember a retrospective article on Friday Night Lights after the show wrapped up. In it, the producers/creators talked about how Kyle Chandler and Connie Britton had such amazing chemistry that they were terrified to let them drive down to Texas together on their own (they wanted to do this to bond before the 1st season started shooting) as they were convinced that by the time the two arrived, they'd be in a torrid affair. Fortunately, nothing like that ever happened and Kyle/Connie were really just BFFs that hit it off immediately.

No, not at all. I was just stating that I only know of Eve from her on that show with Ewan and Charley. Whereas many celebrities today, you know basically their whole life and families from social media. So to know whether she is annoying, overbearing, etc, I don't know. I only know of her from those few episodes she appeared in on the show and we saw her as a bit annoying by inviting herself along.

You must be young or just incredibly unexperienced if you judge complete strangers choices when it comes to their personal relationships.
