Inside Brittany Murphy And Eminem's Relationship

Filming 8 Mile was a bonding experience for not only Brittany Murphy and Eminem, but the entire cast. According to the actor, director Curtis Hanson brought them all together for an intense six weeks of rehearsals which helped the actors bond. "There was a beautiful sense of everyone getting to know each other," she told The Morning Call in November 2002. "Everyone truly became friends and got to know everyone's tics." Murphy said she would stick around after her scenes were shot just to spend time with the cast.

The Sin City actor had front-row seats to experience Eminem creating new music. As Murphy told MTV News in a December 2006 interview, she recalled hearing the future chart-topping hit "Lose Yourself" for the first time. "I remember when the whole cast was brought in to hear 'Lose Yourself' and watching Mekhi [Phifer] hear it for the first time," she said.

After filming Just Married — a rom-com starring Murphy and Ashton Kutcher — the actor was asked about her relationship with The Marshall Mathers LP rapper. "Marshall is ... he's one of the most funny, honest, professional, hard-working actors I've ever worked with, if not the most," she told MTV News in July 2002. Murphy was repeatedly asked about her thoughts on Eminem, as there were rumors the two had sparks off-camera while filming 8 Mile. The actor refuted these rumors in 2002. "Not true," she told The Morning Call. "I'll never be Mrs. Marshall Mathers."
