Jennifer Garner delights fans with surprise 13 Going On 30 co-star reunion

Jennifer Garner has reunited with a former co-star in an unexpected 13 Going On 30 get together.

The actress delighted fans when she took to her Instagram on Friday to reveal she had met up with fellow movie star Judy Greer.

The pair starred in the film 19 years ago, having met for the first time during rehearsals, and have remained firm friends since.

Beaming, Jennifer and Judy looked ecstatic to have reunited as they posed for selfies together.

She even gave a shout out to her character’s love interest, Mark Ruffalo, as she and Judy revelled in each other’s company again.

Tagging Mark Ruffalo in the heart-warming post, Jennifer captioned it: "Were your ears burning @markruffalo?"

Jennifer’s role in 13 Going On 30 is one of her best loved. She portrayed an adult version of Jenna Fink who makes a wish to be “30, flirty and thriving” instead of her 13-year-old self.

Judy starred as Lucy ‘Tom Tom’ Wyman in the hit film, Jennifer’s character’s long-time frenemy.

Judy, 46, reflected on meeting the A-List actress in 2021. She told Insider: “Meeting her was a treat. Who can ever say enough about her? She's literally like what everyone says, like the greatest of all time.”

"She was just a really great leader," continued Greer. "She never complained. She was never late to work.

“She was professional, but she was also crazy fun and, obviously, so talented. When you have someone like that as No. 1 on the call sheet, you really can't complain about anything. Like, you're an a--h--- if you do."

The actress told that it was sometimes "really hard to be mean" to Garner when in character and filming scenes.

"I remember being mean to her in scenes," recalled Greer, "and then after a cut just being like, 'Ugh, I'm so sorry.' And then sometimes I remember we would be in the middle of a scene, and they would cut, and she would just be like, 'You're so mean!'"
