Bust out your favorite cable knit; something big is coming.

Meg Ryan and Billy Crystal had a When Harry Met Sally... reunion on Instagram Wednesday in a post that promised an even more fulsome reunion to come.

"It's finally happening, we're reuniting for something iconic. Can't wait to show you all soon," Ryan wrote in the caption.

In the post, Ryan and Crystal sit side-by-side on a plush couch in a room featuring an ornate patterned wallpaper. It's a detailed recreation of the "couples interviews" segment of the 1989 romantic comedy, and Crystal is even wearing his character's famous white sweater.

It isn't yet clear what the post teases — a sequel film, a reboot, a series adaptation or continuation, some moderated reunion talk, or most likely, with the 59th Super Bowl fast approaching, an advertisement that'll premiere during one of the coveted commercial break slots.

Reps for Ryan and Crystal did not immediately respond to Entertainment Weekly's request for comment.

Directed by Rob Reiner and written by the late Nora Ephron, When Harry Met Sally... follows Ryan's Sally Albright and Crystal's Harry Burns, who encounter each other in a series of chance meetings over the course of 12 years and test the merit of Crystal's question — "Can men and women ever just be friends?"

Spoiler alert: they can't, really. Or at least Harry and Sally couldn't, but Ryan and Crystal have remained friendly over the years since the film's release. The stars and their director reunited for the film's 30th anniversary at the TCM Classic Film Festival in 2019, where they touched on the reasons Reiner had for changing the original ending and the mechanics behind iconic moments like the Katz's Delicatessen "I'll have what she's having" scene.

The pair also rewatched the film together in front of a live audience in 2014, holding hands and smiling through visible emotion.
