They may have played doomed lovers in James Cameron's iconic Titanic, but Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet's love for each other and their friendship have stood the test of time. The two stars continue to be close friends in real life nearly three decades after they first starred in the iconic film and continue to support each other's work. Recently, fans were left pleasantly surprised when the two actors reunited for a special screening of Kate's new movie Lee in Los Angeles. 

A video has surfaced online showing Leo praising Kate on stage and introducing her before the film's screening. 

“Tonight I hope everyone bears witness to a film that captures not only the complexity of Lee's life but also the emotional weight of what it means to share the truth no matter how painful it is. Kate, my dear friend, your work in this film has been nothing short of transformative."

He added, "I continue to be awestruck. I continue to admire your strength, your integrity, your talent and your passion to every single project that you create. So, without further ado, one of the great talents of our generation, the one and only- Kate Winslet.”

Kate was seen giving a tight hug at the end of the video, to loud cheers from the audience.
