Romantic comedies have been a classic genre since the invention of film and became a popular staple in pop culture in the 80s and 90s. Everyone seems to have their go to favorites for the genre and many actors and actresses in Hollywood have starred in multiple romantic comedy films because they're probably as much fun to make as they are to watch.
Whether it's watching Matthew McConaughey fall for his leading lady or Freddie Prinze Jr. smile at the woman on screen who had stolen his heart, one of the best parts about romantic comedies are the men starring in them.
Aquarius: Dylan, Friends With Benefits
In Friends with Benefits, starring Mila Kunis and Justin Timberlake, Timberlake plays Dylan. Dylan is from LA but finds himself in New York after accepting a job offer from Mila's character, Jamie.
Dylan loves having fun with his friends and hates being alone, making him the ideal friend to hook up with, but when feeling start to form between Jamie and Dylan, Dylan runs, as do most Aquarians because this sign is known to shy away from emotional expression.
Pisces: Patrick, 10 Things I Hate About You
Pisces are compassionate and artistic. They are the quiet types, who have a lot to offer once you get to know them. Patrick from the 90s hit, 10 Things I Hate About You is a Pisces.
He's artistic and spiritual, but all of those good things are hidden under a bad boy front, which is quickly dissolved by Kat, the high school girl who steals Patrick's heart. Pisces are also known for their musical talents and Patrick shows his off in one of the most epic movie scenes to date.
Aries: Nate, Someone Great
Aries are naturally optimistic and enthusiastic, making them great partners. They love cheering on the people they love and are always available from advice or motivation. Nate in Someone Great is a rock for his partner Jenny until they break up.
At the end of this relationship, the less attractive attributes of the Aries sign shine through Nate's personality. He's short-tempered and moody, leading to fights and eventually, a heartbreaking separation.
Taurus: Jacob, Crazy, Stupid, Love.
A Taurus likes to look nice. People born under this sign value nice things, especially when it comes to what they're wearing. They also enjoy fine dining and hobbies like art and gardening.
They are stable and well put together people and definitely the friend you turn to for advice. Jacob in Crazy, Stupid, Love. is the ultimate Taurus and it shows, even more, when he falls for Hannah, his friend Cal's daughter. It takes some getting used to, but Cal is eventually okay with it because he knows Jacob is a reliable man.
Gemini: Joe, You've Got Mail
Gemini people love to read. They enjoy books and art and music and because of this, Joe from the 90's romantic comedy classic, You've Got Mail, must be a Gemini. Geminis are also affectionate and curious people.
They don't like being alone and they will strike up a conversation with just about anyone, which is exactly how Joe falls in love with Kathleen after they meet in a chatroom and can't stop exchanging emails.
Cancer: Ben, How To Lose A Guy In Ten Days
Cancers are known to love the simple pleasures. They enjoy relaxing by a beach, or a meal with friends, or talk to family. Ben from How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days loves all of those things.
Ben also works in advertising, another clue that he is a Cancer because Cancers not only love art but they love people, making advertising a good career choice for them. Cancers can also be manipulative, which Ben shows he is when he places a bet at work and uses his new love interest Andy to get ahead.
Leo: Zack, She's All That
Leos love being admired. They are usually the most popular kids in school because they enjoy being the center of attention and thrive in the spotlight. They're easy to be around because they are warm-hearted and generous, so they may be popular, but it's not because they are the school bully, it's usually just the opposite.
A classic Leo is Freddie Prinze Jr.'s character, Zack, in She's All That. Zack means well and genuinely loves Laney, which is why some of the choices he makes throughout the film can be so easily forgiven.
Virgo: Edward, Pretty Woman
Virgos are the people you want running your company. They are loyal and analytical and will work harder than any one else on the team. Virgos tend to be very successful both at work and in their personal lives.
One of the biggest flaws for a Virgo is not being able to ask for help, but that's because they enjoy working for everything they have. Edward, Richard Gere's character in the romantic comedy classic, Pretty Woman is most definitely a Virgo.
Libra: Marcus, Always Be My Maybe
A person born under the Libra sign will always be cooperative and diplomatic. They're social butterflies, but they are also very gentle. They carry a harmonious quality that brings people together and also makes them unforgettable.
In Always be my Maybe, it takes Marcus and Sasha a long time to figure out that they are meant to be and that's partly because Marcus tends to be more complacent and fair-minded in his life, preventing him from going after what he wants.
Scorpio: Jake, Sleeping With Other People
Friendships are what the Scorpio sign values the most. When you make friends with a Scorpio, it's a long term commitment because Scorpios are not only the truest friends you'll have but also the most stubborn. Scorpios also love being right and always resort to truth and facts when it comes to an argument.
No one likes being right more than Jason Sudekis' character Jake in Sleeping with Other People. Jake and his best friend Laney eventually fall for one another after many years of friendship, in true Scorpio fashion.
Sagittarius: Peter, To All The Boys I've Loved Before
One less likable trait about Sagittarius people is their tendency to promise more than they can deliver, but for Peter and Laura Jean, this actually works out pretty well in To All the Boys I've Loved Before.
In this film, Peter and Laura Jean get together only to make Peter's ex jealous and Laura Jean's crush oblivious, but things don't go the way these two fake lovebirds planned and they fall for one another, complicating an already complicated dynamic.
Capricorn: Tom, The Five Year Engagement
Capricorns have a lot of self control and they are very disciplined, which are two great qualities for a chef to have, and one of the best chefs in romantic comedy history is Tom, played by Jason Segal, in The Five Year Engagement. Tom asks Violet, played by Emily Blunt, to marry him, but their wedding plans get put on hold when Violet gets her dream job.
Tom is very patient as he watches his fiancee follow her dreams, but also feels left behind, which in true Capricorn fashion, he keeps to himself until it's too late because Capricorns always expect the worst.
