Viola Davis & Denzel Washington

Denzel Washington doesn’t remember the first time hemet Viola Davis—but shedoes. In 1996 Davis was starring in a Broadway production of August Wilson’s play Seven Guitars. “He came [ backstage] and I was like, ‘Oh my God, I met Denzel Washington!’” Davis recalls. In 2002 Washington, now 62, directed Davis, 51, in Antwone Fisher, and in 2010 they both won Tony awards for their turns in Wilson’s play Fences, about a troubled 1950s family. Now they’re getting major Oscar buzz for the movie version, which Washington directed.
