Actors/Actresses who've already been in a movie together

For example, when people think Patrick Wilson and Jackie Earle Haley in a movie together, they probably think "Watchmen" (2009). But some of you may not know that they've ALREADY been in a movie together in 2004's "Little Children."

Another example - when people think Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Zooey Deschanel, they probably think of this year's "500 Days of Summer". But did you know that they've already acted together in 2001's "Manic"?

Can you think of any more of these?

are you talking just actors and actresses being in the same movies or two actors/two actresses being in the same movies?

I'm talking about a pair of actors OR actresses (any combination ie actor/actor, actor/actress, actress/actress, etc.) that are commonly associated with a certain film, but that have already been in another, potentially lesser-known movie together.

Like, when I saw Manic, I did a double-take because I saw Zooey Deschanel in it alongside Joseph Gordon-Levitt and I said to myself "whoa, I didn't know she was in this, I thought 500 Days of Summer was their first movie together!" I thought it was interesting and I thought that there are probably other pairs/combinations of actors/actresses that have appeared together before their more well-known appearance.

Does that make sense?

Another example - when people think of DeNiro and Pacino onscreen together they may think of "Heat" or "Righteous Kill," but some more casual moviegoers may not know that they've already starred together in "The Godfather Pt. II" (although they didn't necessarily share the screen).
