Saturday Night Live alumnus Bill Hader and Oscar nominated actress Anna Kendrick have been in a relationship for over a year, according to an anonymous source.
The source told People Kendrick and Hader's romance began budding after they wrapped up filming the 2019 Disney+ holiday comedy, Noelle. The actors co-starred as siblings who take over the family business after their father, Santa Claus, dies.
Hader was previously married to and had three children with writer-director Maggie Carey. They have been divorced since 2018.
Kendrick was romantically linked to director Edgar Wright in 2009, and to cinematographer Ben Richardson in 2014.
Hader and Kendrick have yet to confirm the relationship, but fans are already celebrating the potential couple and making jokes.
Twitter users joked about the luck SNL actors seem to have with Hollywood's most beautiful ladies.
