Cuddling couple: Jennifer and Gerard give the assembled media, and each other, their full attention

The couple have been romantically linked since filming the comedy last summer and did little to dispel the rumours as they embraced each other on the red carpet.
Speaking about their chemistry, Scots star Butler said: 'We have a blast together and she appreciates that Celtic manner.
'There's nothing diva-ish about her, she's very down to earth, very sure of herself and who she is, and I'm like a little kid, who doesn't take myself too seriously.
'We had a fun script and a great director, so we just had to dive in and it was a blast.'

Aniston was equally appreciative: 'I love my Gerry. We just lucked out - director fantastic, Gerry fantastic, our crew, New York - you just can't go wrong.'
In the film, Butler plays a down-on-his-luck investigator hired to track down his bail-jumping, reporter ex-wife Aniston.

 

When asked if the theme of exes being brought back together in the film had prompted her to examine her own love life, the former Friends star replied: 'I don't know why (people) think that's what equals happiness. I am completely happy.'
During filming, Aniston and Butler were spotted looking very flirty together in between scenes, prompting rumours they were dating.

But this morning Aniston told GMTV that rumours of a relationship were wide of the mark, and just tabloid 'fodder'.
'I think that it’s sort of just a formula – that they think that if you do a movie together and you get along really well – you must be dating…. It’s fodder – it fills magazines, it has nothing backing it at all,' she said.

Despite the rumours, Butler was photographed kissing a violinist in a Los Angeles street last month and has also been linked to Jessica Simpson and Lindsay Lohan.
The actor, who has been teetotal for 13 years, claimed he didn't deserve his reputation as a womaniser.

He told Men's Health magazine: 'I get laid less now than I used to, because I’m way more paranoid now. Look at f***ing Tiger Woods.
'I mean, I’m nowhere near as naughty as I used to be, partly because I did a lot of that when I was drinking.
'I’m not saying I’ve cut that part out. I’m certainly no angel. There’s no smoke without fire.'
Since moving to Hollywood five years ago, Butler has only had two relationships.
He explained: 'I’m not a big relationship guy. One of my vices is, I’m too wrapped up in myself and not always in a good way.'
