THEN AND NOW: The cast of 'Mr. & Mrs. Smith' 19 years later

  • Doug Liman's "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" movie arrived in theaters back in 2005.
  • The action comedy follows a pair of married spies keeping their jobs a secret from their other half.

Back in 2005, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie starred in "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" as two married spies secretly working for competing agencies, who are assigned to kill each other.

Although the film itself got a middling reaction on release, it became an iconic noughties movie, because it sparked a relationship between Pitt and Jolie. At the time, Pitt was one half of one of Hollywood's most beloved couples with Jennifer Aniston.

After Pitt and the "Friends" star divorced in 2005, he and Jolie became an item, and so "Brangelina" was born. They married in 2014 and stayed together until 2016 when Jolie filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences.

Now, almost 20 years after the movie's release, Donald Glover and Maya Erskine star in Amazon's "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" TV series, which loosely follows the same idea of spies in a fake marriage.

Here's what the original "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" cast were doing when it was filmed, and what they're doing now.
