Hosted by Hayek, 57, and Kristen Stewart, the event was attended by the likes of Alicia Silverstone, Geena Davis and Vin Diesel.

While Bandidas is the only film project Hayek and Cruz have starred in together, they have remained close pals over the years — from the moment Cruz first landed in Los Angeles.

At the time, the two had only met over the phone — never in person. But Hayek still made sure to give Cruz the warmest welcome possible.

"I was coming here for two months and I didn't know anyone here," Cruz said last year on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. "And [Salma] picked me up and said, 'You're not going to the hotel. You're coming to my house because this is hard at the beginning and you're going to feel very lonely.' "

The Oscar winner was admittedly scared when she first reached Southern California, and even initially slept in Hayek's room.

"And in the middle of the night, she said I was holding her hand because I was afraid, I was dreaming, I don't know," Cruz told DeGeneres, 65.

Cruz's newest film, Ferrari, is directed by Michael Mann and follows the story of Italian former racecar driver and Ferrari automobile founder Enzo Ferrari (played by Adam Driver). The movie takes place in 1957 when Ferrari "is in crisis," according to an official synopsis of the movie.

"Bankruptcy stalks the company he and his wife Laura built from nothing 10 years earlier. Their volatile marriage has been battered by the loss of their son Dino a year earlier," the synopsis continues. "Ferrari struggles to acknowledge his son Piero with Lina Mardi."

"Meanwhile, his drivers' passion to win pushes them to the edge as they launch into the treacherous 1,000-mile race across Italy, the Mille Miglia," the synopsis adds.

Cruz plays Ferrari's wife Laura in the film. She and Driver, 40, are joined in the cast by Patrick Dempsey as Formula One driver Piero Taruffi,  Shailene Woodley as Ferrari's mistress Lina Lardi, Jack O'Connell as Peter Collins, Sarah Gadon as Linda Christian and Gabriel Leone as Fon De Portago.

Ferrari revs into theaters this Christmas.
