Eric Bana only lets his friends marry "fun" women. The "Time Traveler's Wife" star, who wed publicist Rebecca Gleeson in 1997, believes laughter is the key to a successful marriage.

He said: "A girl's got to be fun. It's the one bit of advice I always give to friends of mine who are thinking of getting married."

Eric Bana was picked to star in 'The Time Traveler's Wife' because of his "obvious decency."

The Australian actor - who plays Henry DeTamble, a man who involuntarily travels through time - was chosen for the romantic film because of his homely nature.

Eric Bana thinks housework is the ultimate "aphrodisiac." The "Time Travelers' Wife" actor - who has son Klaus, 11, and eight-year-old daughter Sophia with his wife Rebecca, who he married in 1997 - revealed the way to win a woman's heart is by keeping a clean home.

He said: "I'm good around the house. I'm not stealing my wife's thunder, but I do clean. Housework is a bigger aphrodisiac to women than a set of abs, I've found!"

Rachel McAdams thinks toned muscles "are for wimps." The actress, who appears alongside Eric Bana in new movie "The Time Traveler's Wife," refuses to spend hours working out as she is happy with her body the way it is.

She said: "In the movie, after Eric comes back from time travelling, he doesn't have a stitch on. I don't think he went to the gym to get ready for those scenes. Eric comes pre-pumped."
