Reese Witherspoon is throwing it back to the 90's!
The actress took to Instagram on Thursday to share a vintage snapshot from the set of "Cruel Intentions," where she's sitting on a couch with then-boyfriend (and ex husband) Ryan Phillippe and Sarah Michelle Gellar.
"Ahh the 90's…" she captioned the cute candid.
Screenwriter/director Roger Kumble recently revealed Katie Holmes and Vinessa Shaw were up for the role of Annette Hargrove, but ultimately, he enlisted Ryan's help to get Witherspoon to sign on.
"So, basically, we took Reese out to dinner to get her drunk," Kumble told Cosmopolitan. "And we ended up getting drunk, and I literally got down on my knees and begged her: 'Please, it'll be 15 days, you'll be great.'"
"Reese was like, 'I'll do it. But we need to work on the character,'" he added. "I'm like, 'Anything, anything, anything.' She wanted to strengthen the character, and she was right. And she and I got together, and we gave Annette more bite so she wasn't a doormat. And I'm very grateful to her for that."
The "Legally Blonde" star and the hunky actor were among young Hollywood's hottest couples when they filmed the cult classic.
The pair said "I Do" in June 1999, three months after the movie was released. Witherspoon was six-months pregnant with their first child Ava at the time.
Reese and Ryan, also parents to 10-year-old son Deacon, split in 2006 and finalized their divorce in 2008.
