She thinks it looks really sweet, Jeremy.

Anne Hathaway is poking fun at former costar Jeremy Strong's unique outfit for the Golden Globes with an unexpected comparison to one of her own iconic looks. "Sweetheart, I’m not mad you borrowed it," Hathaway captioned a Monday Instagram post featuring a side-by-side of Strong's velvet bucket hat and her character's own in The Princess Diaries. "But I didn’t totally realize you were going to change the col… anyway, not important, congrats on your well deserved nom for The Apprentice!!! 💚"

Strong's full ensemble courtesy the Italian fashion brand Loro Piana consisted of a white turtleneck, velvet suit set in turquoise, matching turquoise bucket hat, and turquoise shades from Jacques Marie Mage. It's the bucket hat in particular that makes Strong a dead ringer for Hathaway's Mia Thermopolis, who in a memorable Princess Diaries scene dons a similar hat to cover up a tragic haircut.

It's isn't altogether surprising that someone on the 2025 Globes red carpet unwittingly referenced a film like Princess Diaries. Garry Marshall's 2001 coming-of-age comedy is like a time capsule of early 2000s fashion, which is currently experiencing a serious nostalgia revival.

Hathaway and Strong have worked together on two previous occasions, on James Gray's 2022 bildungsroman Armageddon Time and the 2019 conceptual thriller Serenity. Hathaway called their friendship "gorgeous" in a 2022 interview with PEOPLE.

The Oscar-winner said that she and Strong's "lives kind of opened up in a similar way at a similar time in that we both became parents at roughly the same time." Strong shared that while on vacation together, "my second daughter learned how to walk in the house we were sharing."

Strong was nominated at the 2025 Golden Globes for his performance as the closeted lawyer and well known political fixer Roy Cohn in Ali Abbasi's Donald Trump biopic The Apprentice. Though Hathaway appeared in the age gap romcom The Idea of You and the Jessica Chastain two-hander Mother's Instinct this year, neither received Globes nominations.

The Apprentice went home empty-handed, though Strong's costar Sebastian Stan did pick up a trophy for his performance in Aaron Schimberg's A Different Man. The trans cartel musical Emilia Pérez took home the most awards of the night, winning four off ten nominations, including Best Supporting Actress for Zoe Saldaña and Best Motion Picture - Musical or Comedy.
