If she's marrying anyone, it's Harold Finch in a crossover

Sims is rubbing off on her.

His last name—"Vanger"—is also the name of the main family in the book/movie.

I knew there was something suspicious about her, and I figured it had to be from one of her previous roles. Yup, The Following. I've blocked that show from my conscious memory but subconsciously I've tagged her as sneaky and dangerous.

I'd say Who Framed Roger Rabbit and Forrest Gump are the only effects-heavy movies I can think of that aim for "seamless disbelief," and they stand out as unusual for that reason. All the other movies you mention are 100% screaming, "LOOK AT OUR EFFECTS!!"

I believe he's Mariska Hargitay's husband in real life. He's played a recurring defense attorney on L&O:SVU.
