After two decades, Hollywood dream couple Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick return to the screen together again in “Connescence”.
The Hollywood dream couple Kevin Bacon (65) and Kyra Sedgwick (58) are celebrating their big comeback: The two actors were last seen on screen together in 2004 in the films “The Woodsman” and “Cavedweller”. But like now, Bacon and Sedgwick are supposed to be in front of the camera together again for the first time in 20 years for the new production by “King of Queens” producer Michael J. Weithorn (67). In “Connescence” Bacon and Sedgwick play the leading roles.
That’s what “Connescence” is about
In Weithorn’s new production, Bacon plays the role of security guard Stan, who meets Sedgwick’s character Cynthia after stopping an attempted robbery at her home. “From this chance encounter, a charged and dynamic friendship grows – first as late-night text messages full of humor and intimate revelations, which evolve into something that shakes the foundations of both their lives,” says Deadline.
The pair are delighted to be working together on screen “for the first time in 20 years in such a funny, moving and original script,” they said in a joint statement. Sedgwick previously revealed that it was “great to work with the family.”
Bacon and Sedgwick met while filming
Bacon and Sedgwick met on the set of the coming-of-age film “Lemon Sky” in 1987. Just a year later, on September 4, 1988, the two actors tied the knot. Bacon and Sedgwick have two children together, son Travis (34) and daughter Sosie (31), who like her parents is an actress.
