There is an ironic twist surrounding the casting of Kate Winslet, Dame Emma Thompson, and Greg Wise. Although they portray love interests on-screen, Winslet and Wise dated only briefly in reality before Wise took to Winslet's on-screen sister, Dame Emma Thompson. Thompson and Wise were together for eight years before getting married. Together, they have one adopted son and one biological daughter. Interestingly, Richard Lumsden, who portrayed Thompson's on-screen love interest's brother Robert Ferrars, is her actual brother-in-law. Lumsden is married to Thompson's younger sister, Sophie Thompson, who also was featured in two movie adaptations of Jane Austen's books, Screen Two: Persuasion (1995) and Emma (1996). In the former, Sophie Thompson played the younger sister of the story's main character, Anne Elliot, which was played by Amanda Root, who ironically was sought for the role of Marianne in this movie. Root, however, could not accept the role due to her obligations to film Screen Two: Persuasion (1995). In a nutshell, Root landed a role in an Austen adaptation and was coincidentally asked to star in another one. When she could not appear, another actress, who dated the future husband of her on-screen sister's sister, was given the role, and her on-screen sister's actual husband portrayed the on-screen (eventual) brother-in-law of his actual sister-in-law in the same movie in which she could not star.
