Mandy Moore Shares The Sweetest Message With 'A Walk To Remember' Co-Star Shane West

17 years ago, A Walk to Remember starring Mandy Moore and Shane West premiered, introducing the world to one of pop culture's favorite onscreen romances. Though Moore and West never pursued a relationship offscreen, they've remained friends to this day, as evidenced by an absolutely adorable memory Moore shared with E! News.


Shane, who is now an actor on Gotham, was sitting down for an interview with E! to reminisce about his time shooting the classic romance. He spoke of Moore, now a star of This is Us, saying:

"Mandy was phenomenal and my best friend when we were working on that."

That's when E! decided to surprise the actor with a video message from Moore!

Mandy's message to Shane was short, simple, and very sweet:

"Hi Shane! Happy 17th anniversary—I know we exchanged some Instagram DM's about the big event, but congrats on everything you have going on in your world and let's...like...hang, dude! Let's go get some coffee and catch up, because it's been too long. Like we need a good one-on-one hang. So, um, let's do that! Have a good one!"

Fans were delighted that the pair are still good friends!




And of course, West and Moore's "conversation" had many social media users thinking about their love for their movie.




The small hello reminded Shane of the day Director Adam Shankman took the pair aside and told them:

"Prepare for the rest of your lives to be changed."

The movie would change both of its stars career trajectories forever:

"We hadn't had anything that had been a success like that, so that will probably be on of my favorite memories."




Could there be a better excuse to re-watch A Walk to Remember? I don't think so!

Marvel Just Confirmed That Chris Evans Is Returning For 'Avengers: Doomsday'—And Fans Have Mixed Feelings

Folks, once again, continuity is more of a suggestion than a rule in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Marvel has officially confirmed that Chris Evans is returning as Steve Rogers in Avengers: Doomsday, and the internet has responded exactly how you’d expect: screaming, celebrating, arguing, and a very justified side-eye toward how Sam Wilson keeps getting treated.

The confirmation comes via a teaser now playing exclusively in theaters ahead of Avatar: Fire and Ash. There is no official online release, despite leaks circulating. If you didn’t catch it on the big screen, Marvel’s response is essentially: sorry, guess you had to be there.
