Renee Zellweger gives 'Jerry Maguire' co-star Tom Cruise a shout-out at the SAG Awards
After all these years, Tom Cruise still completes Renée Zellweger.
The "Judy" star celebrated her 2020 Screen Actors Guild Awards win with a little throwback, thanking her old "Jerry Maguire" co-star.
Accepting the best-actress award for her portrayal of Judy Garland, Zellweger gave a shout-out to several of her fellow actors, including Tom Cruise "for your example of professionalism on set and striving on set and generosity and unconditional kindness."
Zellweger and Cruise starred opposite each other in the 1996 romantic comedy-drama flick that catapulted the future "Bridget Jones's Diary" star's career.
She also expressed thanks to the rest of the nominees: "What an honor from my actor family. Thank you so much for this," she said. "To this community: Y'all have taught me so much, especially my sisters: Your example inspires me."

Fans of "Jerry Maguire" expressed their love for her tribute on social media.
"Renee Zellwegger shouting out Tom Cruise was pretty cool," tweeted user @kevinlockett. "Cruise rarely gets nominated anymore but his work ethic on the set, creates a blueprint for his fellow actors to follow."
