Is there a trope where non-related actors/actresses play a couple in one medium and family members in another?

There's Nasim Pedrad and Andy Samberg, who play a couple on SNL and siblings in Brooklyn Nine-Nine. And there's two obscure Singaporean films directed by Anthony Chen; Yeo Yann Yann and Koh Jia Ler played mother and son in one and were in a Teacher/Student Romance in the other.

I don't quite get the photo caption, I mean, they literally are siblings; that's the point. I don't see how the fact they also played siblings adds to "wouldn't it be creepy if these actual siblings played lovers".

Should there be a theater section? Or more generally, do we take examples of casting/production tropes from notable productions of plays, or should live plays only get examples of tropes baked into the script itself?

who are the people on the post's picture? (the names are fictional and so is the movie, but... who are the real people?)
