Diane Keaton and Keanu Reeves’ crackling chemistry while presenting the award for Best Original Screenplay at the [92nd Annual Academy Awards](https://time.com/5774472/everything-to-know-2020-oscars/) had viewers clamoring for a sequel to _Something’s Gotta Give._ 

The pair reminisced about the 2003 Nancy Meyers rom-com, in which their characters date each other.

“It’s been a long time since you and I made that movie,” Keaton said. “Remember me in it?”

“Yeah, you were amazing,” Reeves replied, to which Keaton said, _“You_ were amazing.”

“I’ll never forget reading that Nancy Meyers screenplay for the first time,” Reeves said.

“I mean, that was a lot of crying in there, Keanu,” Keaton said. “Lots of laughing and crying and, well, we had some, well, let’s be frank — it was a good time.”

Although Reeves and Keaton’s characters don’t end up together in _Something’s Gotta Give_ (Keaton ultimately chooses Jack Nicholson’s character), their Oscars moment proved that their spark has never gone away.
