Timothee Chalamet and Keegan-Michael Key shared quite the embrace at the premiere of their new movie Wonka held at Regency Village Theatre on Sunday (December 10) in Los Angeles.

The 27-year-old actor, who stars as the titular character, was lifted in the air by his co-star in a cute and funny moment on the carpet.

Also hitting the magenta carpet were their co-stars Hugh Grant and wife Anna Elisabet Eberstein, Calah Lane, Colin O’Brien, Natasha Rothwell, Paterson Joseph and Tracy Ifeachor, as well as Keegan-Michael‘s wife Elle and the director Paul King.
