There is no time like awards season in Hollywood, when pop-culture and film fans alike get to revel in seeing some of their favorite stars – from Margot Robbie and Selena Gomez to Christopher Nolan and Martin Scorsese – gather for countless red carpets.

The buzzy, weeks-long season officially kicked off on January 7 with the 81st annual Golden Globes, the first of a long list of award shows coming up, culminating with the Academy Awards on March 10th.

Aside from sweeping wins for hit shows like Succession and The Bear, plus the Christopher Nolan instant-classic Oppenheimer, the night also treated viewers to heartfelt reunions from beloved co-stars from years past. From a Mamma Mia! red carpet smooch to a Meghan Markle-less Suits reunion, see some of the best photos below.
