The INSIDER Summary:
- Jennifer Lawrence and Darren Aronofsky posed as a couple for the first time since they began dating about a year ago.
- You may not recognize Aronofsky, but you've certainly know his films.
- The pair met on the set of their new film "Mother!" and Lawrence has called him "brilliant."
Jennifer Lawrence and her boyfriend of about a year, director Darren Aronofsky, aren't exactly a red caret staple. But the low-profile couple finally made their debut at the New York premiere of their new horror movie "Mother!."
Lawrence, 27, and Aronofsky, 48, surprised many when they posed together during the event, as they hadn't walked as a couple during the other red carpet events surrounding the controversial new movie.
The new couple met on the set of their movie "Mother," which Aronofsky directed and Lawrence stars in. Aronofsky may not seem like a familiar face, but you have probably seen his movies including the 2010 hit "Black Swan," the chilling 2000 film "Requiem For a Dream," and the 2014 epic "Noah."
The pair sparked dating rumors when they were spotted kissing on the streets of New York last year. Though they may seem cozy in paparazzi snaps, Lawrence told Vogue that they didn't always see eye to eye on set.
Lawrence recalled a time during an intense scene, she hyperventilated, dislocated a rib, and had to be given oxygen. She told Vogue that Aronofsky didn't seem phased.
"I ended up getting on oxygen," she told them. "I have oxygen tubes in my nostrils, and Darren's like, 'It was out of focus; we've got to do it again.' And I was just like, 'Go f--- yourself.'"
But now the couple seem to be going strong: Lawrence gushed to the magazine that she feels more comfortable with him than she has felt in past relationships (Lawrence has been linked to Coldplay singer Chris Martin and fellow "X-Men" actor Nicholas Hoult.)
"I've been in relationships before where I am just confused," she told Vogue. "And I'm never confused with him."
She also called her new beau an "amazing" father (Aronofsky has a son from his previous relationship with actress Rachel Weisz) and "brilliant" director.
Despite their superstar statuses, Lawrence and Aronofsky still have typical couple disagreements; Lawrence told Vogue that he just doesn't seem to share her love of reality shows.
"He just finds it so vastly disappointing," she told Vogue, laughing.
Hopefully we'll be seeing more from this couple and don't have to wait through Lawrence's apparent two-year break from making films to see them posing together again.
