Fans Speculate on Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal's 'Iconic' Reunion Project: Is a Superbowl Commercial in the Works?
Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal, the stars of the beloved 1989 romantic comedy "When Harry Met Sally..." have reunited, and fans are enjoying every bit of it.
The actors took to social media to post about their reunion, which triggered rampant speculation of a forthcoming collaboration.
Ryan shared a photo with Crystal and captioned it, "It's finally happening, we're reuniting for something iconic. Can't wait to show you all soon 💙"
The photo was shared on Instagram Wednesday.
In the image, Crystal can be seen wearing the classic white sweater from the movie as he sits on a couch with Ryan.
The timing of the announcement has left many speculating the duo might be working on a Super Bowl spot together.
The reunion photo was first shared by Reddit user cmaia1503 on the r/Fauxmoi subreddit, where reactions flooded in shortly after.
Reddit user ebradio wrote, "Super Bowl commercial," and another person commented on the recent ad trend, writing, "every recent Super Bowl commercial is just 'remember this show from 15+ years ago? buy our (unrelated) product.'"
Nostalgia is clearly in the air for fans of the movie, and many are anticipating what Ryan and Crystal have in store.
Reddit user knickstapeeee summed up the sentiment perfectly, writing, "When Harry Met Sally is my favorite movie of all time... seeing them together again is like seeing an old friend."
