Show us the, er, reenactment! <\/p>\n

When Ren\u00e9e Zellweger<\/a><\/strong> and Sir Ben Kingsley<\/strong> stopped by for an appearance on the Late Late Show with James Corden<\/em> last night, the host had just one request.<\/p>\n

“You have given some iconic performance during your career and I was wondering,” James Corden<\/a><\/strong> said to Kingsley, “I was interested to see how you would fare delivering some of Renee’s most iconic lines.”<\/p>\n

Insert 1996’s Jerry Maguire<\/em> and its most quotable scene between Zellweger’s single mom Dorothy Boyd and Tom Cruise<\/a><\/strong>‘s titular sports agent<\/a>. But, 23 years after its theatrical release<\/a>, Corden decided to put a spin on the cult classic: Kingsley would play Boyd while she would step into Cruise’s role.<\/p>\n

“Usually this is my space,” the 50-year-actress began. “I’m really good, I’m great in the living. Usually, I come in here\u2014” Deadpanned the stoic Brit, “Shut up. Just shut up. You had me at hello.”<\/p>\n

Hmm, perhaps we need to request a remake!<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

The romcom\u2014which also starred Cuba Gooding Jr.<\/a><\/strong>, Regina King<\/strong> and Jonathan Lipnicki<\/strong>\u2014helped catapult Zellweger into super stardom<\/a>. <\/p>\n

“It was a pivotal moment, not just professionally, but for me personally,” she recalled to VF.com, adding that she didn’t even have time to think if the flick would be a success or not. “I was straddling this place in my mind between disbelief and this overwhelming sense of responsibility not to screw the whole thing up.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

More than two decades later, she and Cruise\u2014who she describes as “genuine and warm and kind”\u2014are still close friends.<\/p>\n

“He never forgets my birthday,” she revealed. “He’s always so thoughtful and generous, and it’s sweet that he always remembers, because I’m sure he has quite a bit on his plate.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
