One has been in the public eye since birth. The other, since childhood. One is a prince by blood. The other is a prince among stars. It’s [Prince Harry](http://time.com/4848904/prince-harry-helping-hands-visit/) and [Harry Styles](http://time.com/4785837/best-songs-2017-so-far/item/harry-styles-sign-of-the-times/), of course, two British men (one royal) who happened to chance upon each other for an epic meet-and-greet at the world premiere of the new WWII drama [_Dunkirk_](http://people.com/movies/christopher-nolan-dunkirk-virtual-reality/) in London’s West End on Thursday. The film, directed by Christopher Nolan and starring Hollywood heavyweights like [Tom Hardy](http://time.com/4786608/venom-sony-tom-hardy-spider-man/), Mark Rylance, and [Cillian Murphy](http://time.com/4393203/anthropoid-movie-jamie-dornan-cillian-murphy/), is Styles’s first acting gig. Prince Harry was in attendance to help honor veterans of the war, [with whom he conversed](https://twitter.com/KensingtonRoyal/status/885536327395143680?ref%5Fsrc=twsrc%5Etfw&ref%5Furl=http%3A%2F%2Fpeople.com%2Froyals%2Fwhen-harry-met-harry-prince-harry-and-harry-styles-hit-the-red-carpet-for-dunkirk-premiere%2F) and accompanied to the film prior to walking the red carpet. This has been a busy week of official duties for the red-headed royal; he also assisted at a [state banquet](http://time.com/4856485/kate-middleton-wears-princess-diana-tiara/) with his family and King Felipe and Queen Letizia of Spain in Buckingham Palace on Wednesday Styles, meanwhile, is preparing for his own solo world tour to support his hit [self-titled album](http://time.com/4769079/harry-styles-tour-sold-out/), which launches in September. And his and the other Harry’s fans were out in full force to celebrate this iconic meeting of idols during their red carpet appearances. _Dunkirk_ is in theaters July 21. > [](https://twitter.com/ramsha990/status/885560738877771776) > [](https://twitter.com/saillarryship/status/885569994544820224) > [](https://twitter.com/1DCheckups/status/885571188424142848) > [](https://twitter.com/siobhanf314/status/885579649773916160) > [](https://twitter.com/zornitsaxx/status/885576659583197184) > [](https://twitter.com/rialovestea/status/885556855556243458) > [](https://twitter.com/wolvescameout/status/885559565445718016) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4857383/prince-harry-harry-styles-dunkirk/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4857383/prince-harry-harry-styles-dunkirk/"},"headline":"The Internet Is Positively Thrilled About This Double Harry Photo of Prince Harry and Harry Styles","datePublished":"2017-07-13T20:56:50.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:45:23.739Z","description":"Both idols appeared on the red carpet for the world premiere of Christopher Nolan's 'Dunkirk,' a WWII epic in which Styles is an actor.","url":"https://time.com/4857383/prince-harry-harry-styles-dunkirk/","keywords":["Newsfeed","celebrities","royals","Prince Harry","Harry Styles"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt8e84094428863c12/6988d59686f68e649b6e58d1/prince-harry-harry-styles.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Raisa Bruner","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/raisa-bruner/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt8e84094428863c12/6988d59686f68e649b6e58d1/prince-harry-harry-styles.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"'Dunkirk' World Premiere - Red Carpet Arrivals","caption":"'Dunkirk' World Premiere - Red Carpet Arrivals","creditText":"Eamonn M.
