Kevin Costner and Pete Davidson: The Unexpected Duo of 2025
Kevin Costner and Pete Davidson Are Hollywood’s Most Unexpected Friendship of 2025
2025 has already delivered its fair share of wild headlines—and it’s only February. But if you’re looking for a story that’s more “Wait, what?” than world-shaking, here you go: Pete Davidson and Kevin Costner appear to be actual, real-life friends.
Yep, you read that right.
Sources have been buzzing about the duo’s surprising bromance, and recent appearances seem to back it up. They were spotted together at the Super Bowl last weekend, showed up side by side at Chris Rock’s 60th birthday bash, and even hugged on the red carpet at the SNL 50: Homecoming Concert.
No one’s quite sure how or why this friendship blossomed—but honestly, do we need an explanation? Sometimes people just click. And judging by their easygoing chemistry in photos, these two genuinely enjoy each other’s company.
That said… how did they meet? Who made the first move? Was it a “small talk turned soul talk” kind of situation? We may never know.
What they do share, though, is a certain magnetism—particularly when it comes to the ladies. Kevin Costner has always had a silver-fox appeal, while Pete Davidson, despite being divisive, continues to date his way through Hollywood’s A-list. Between the two of them, they’ve probably had dinner with half of the Vanity Fair Oscars party guest list.
Back to Chris Rock’s birthday party at the Crane Club: the star-studded guest list included the likes of Kim Kardashian, Tom Hanks, Eddie Murphy, Dave Chappelle, Bill Murray, and Cher. Davidson and Costner, if nothing else, made a strong case for being the ultimate wingman duo. Would it really be surprising if one of them left with a +1?
Interestingly, Davidson reportedly dipped out of the party shortly after Kim Kardashian (his ex) arrived. Make of that what you will. A source close to him claims the timing was purely coincidental—and not about Kim.
So what’s next for this unlikely friendship? Who knows. But in a year already full of plot twists, the Pete & Kevin storyline might just be the light-hearted subplot we didn’t know we needed.
