Remember Charlize Theron and Renée Zellweger’s Epic Oscars Moment 16 Years Ago?

Remember Charlize Theron and Renée Zellweger’s Epic Oscars Moment 16 Years Ago?

The 2020 Oscars ceremony is set to unite two Oscar winners who both took home their prizes on the same night 16 years ago: Charlize Theron and Renée Zellweger.

Theron and Zellweger, who are both up for Best Actress this year for their respective roles in Bombshell and Judy, both won Academy Awards in 2004. Theron won Best Actress for Monster, while Zellweger won Best Supporting Actress for Cold Mountain.

For the ceremony, both actresses went for classic glam looks, with Theron donning a bedazzled glittering gown (not unlike her Oscar itself) and matching bedazzled T-strap sandals, with her hair in an old Hollywood-style bob with finger waves. Zellweger, meanwhile, looked like a pure winner in a white satin strapless gown with a train, paired with matching pumps.
