In Hollywood, meeting your significant other through work is a pretty common scenario.
Actress Lea Thompson’s love story, however, has a bit of a twist.
It took a box office bomb for Thompson to join the project.

“We met that way and we eventually married,” said Deutch in the feature (viaPeople).
“But that’s another story.”
Lea Thompson called Howard the Duck ‘painful’
Thompson has spoken about the flop before.

“It was painful,” she toldThe Hollywood Reporterin 2016.
“I had to get on another movie.
I wouldn’t have done [Some Kind of Wonderful] ifHowardwasn’t such a bomb.”
While the abysmal premiere ofHoward the Duckseemed catastrophic at the time, things worked out for the best.
“Things that seemed bad had turned out to be good in the end,” she said.
Deutch agreed with this assessment in the feature, explaining that Thompson helped makeSome Kind of Wonderfula hit.
“It was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.”
