We’ll have what they’re having.
Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal have “When Harry Met Sally…” fans saying “Yes! Yes! Yes!” after teasing an upcoming reunion.
In a photo posted on the main grid of their Instagram accounts on Wednesday, the “You’ve Got Mail” actress, 63, and the “City Slickers” star, 76, smile as they sit on a set reminiscent of one that plays a major role in “When Harry Met Sally…”
“It’s finally happening, we’re reuniting for something iconic,” Ryan captioned the post. “Can’t wait to show you all soon.”
In a clear allusion to the role he played in the beloved 1989 romantic comedy, Crystal wears Harry’s famous Aran-style fisherman pullover sweater (which has taken on a fandom of its own over the years).
The pair also sit on a sofa bearing a striking resemblance to one used in multiple documentary-style scenes that served as a framing device in the movie, where fictional couples shared details of their love stories. Harry and Sally’s confessional interview was the movie’s final scene.
Glee-ridden fans quickly flooded the comments section of Ryan’s post, unable to contain their euphoric delight.
“Amazing, together. Does this mean we will find out what happened to Harry and Sally[?]” one person asked.
“IT’S HAPPENING OH MY GOD EVERYONE REMAIN CALM,” another wrote, with many more sharing similar sentiments such as, “NOBODY MOVE,” “my heart just dropped!!!!!!” and “I’m not going to be able to handle this.”
Referencing one of the movie’s most famous lines, one person commented, “I’ll have what she’s having!”
Crystal recently spoke about where he thinks his and Ryan’s “When Harry Met Sally…” characters would be today, 36 years after they fell in love.
“They’d be talking about downsizing,” he told E!’s red carpet host Laverne Cox ahead of the 2024 Primetime Emmy Awards last September.
“They’re not ready for assisted living yet. But they’re still romantic, still in love.”
He added, “They’re probably having a great time with their grandchildren and finding new ways to be with each other.”
Crystal also opened up about how he feels to have been part of a movie that has resonated with audiences over three decades.
“It’s extraordinary to be part of an evergreen [movie] like that after all these years,” he remarked. “Young people finding it; getting called from film schools and 22-year-olds finding the movie; 21-year-olds, and coming to speak to them about it.”
Asked to explain the film’s staying power, the nine-time Oscar host credited Rob Reiner’s “great directing” and a “brilliant script” from screenwriter Nora Ephron, who passed away in 2012 at the age of 71, along with Ryan and their late co-stars Bruno Kirby and Carrie Fisher.
“It was a small but powerful group,” he said.
