Shane, who is now an actor on Gotham, was sitting down for an interview with E! to reminisce about his time shooting the classic romance. He spoke of Moore, now a star of This is Us, saying:
"Mandy was phenomenal and my best friend when we were working on that."
That's when E! decided to surprise the actor with a video message from Moore!
Mandy's message to Shane was short, simple, and very sweet:
"Hi Shane! Happy 17th anniversary—I know we exchanged some Instagram DM's about the big event, but congrats on everything you have going on in your world and let's...like...hang, dude! Let's go get some coffee and catch up, because it's been too long. Like we need a good one-on-one hang. So, um, let's do that! Have a good one!"
Fans were delighted that the pair are still good friends!
And of course, West and Moore's "conversation" had many social media users thinking about their love for their movie.
The small hello reminded Shane of the day Director Adam Shankman took the pair aside and told them:
"Prepare for the rest of your lives to be changed."
The movie would change both of its stars career trajectories forever:
"We hadn't had anything that had been a success like that, so that will probably be on of my favorite memories."
Could there be a better excuse to re-watch A Walk to Remember? I don't think so!

Or if not their old work, perhaps we should catch up with Moore and West's new shows!

Perhaps the pair will see each other in person...on the set of This is Us! One can only hope.
