The two HBO stars were photographed wearing matching polka-dot dresses on the blue carpet of Thursday’s Critics’ Choice Awards, sending the Internet into a frenzy of enthusiasm over the pairing. Some fans simply couldn’t get over the fact that _Game of Thrones_‘ Daenerys Targaryen and _Big Little Lies_‘ Madeline Mackenzie had finally been captured in the same frame. “EMILIA CLARKE AND REESE WITHERSPOON I WILL NEVER STOP TALKING ABOUT THIS,” Twitter user @dansaryas [wrote](https://twitter.com/dansaryas/status/951615893582372870) in all caps. While others imagined potential topics of conversation for the duo, who was laughing and smiling as they stood with their arms around one another. “Reese was talking to Emilia about her cameo on \[_Big Little Lies_\] season 2 as Celeste’s new wife,” [tweeted](https://twitter.com/dracaras/status/951611920091459584) user @dracaras. > [](https://twitter.com/dansaryas/status/951615893582372870) > [](https://twitter.com/dracaras/status/951611920091459584) See a selection of the reactions below. > [](https://twitter.com/oshawildling/status/951609334932393984) > [](https://twitter.com/klenaltomare/status/951614714395668480) > [](https://twitter.com/yeahclarke/status/951614946806321152) > [](https://twitter.com/gonrgirl/status/951612308605698048) > [](https://twitter.com/greysipedia/status/951610431373758471) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5100691/reese-witherspoon-emilia-clarke-matching-photo/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5100691/reese-witherspoon-emilia-clarke-matching-photo/"},"headline":"The Internet Is Losing It Over This Glorious Photo of Reese Witherspoon and Emilia Clarke Together","datePublished":"2018-01-12T15:55:18.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:49:43.700Z","description":"They're also wearing matching dresses","url":"https://time.com/5100691/reese-witherspoon-emilia-clarke-matching-photo/","keywords":["Newsfeed","celebrities","awards","Reese Witherspoon","emilia clarke","awards season"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blteb5c5c2ac66f4eaa/6988f80f096a9423f56a1132/screen-shot-2018-01-12-at-9-58-34-am.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Megan McCluskey","jobTitle":"Staff Writer","url":"https://time.com/author/megan-mccluskey/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blteb5c5c2ac66f4eaa/6988f80f096a9423f56a1132/screen-shot-2018-01-12-at-9-58-34-am.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Critics-Choice-Awards-Reese-Witherspoon-Emilia-Clarke","caption":"Actors Reese Witherspoon (L) and Emilia Clarke attend The 23rd Annual Critics' Choice Awards at Barker Hangar on January 11, 2018 in Santa Monica, California.","creditText":"Christopher Polk/Getty Images for The Critics' Choice Awards","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/5100691/reese-witherspoon-emilia-clarke-matching-photo/","name":"The Internet Is Losing It Over This Glorious Photo of Reese Witherspoon and Emilia Clarke Together"}}]}] ```
