| Cuba Gooding Jr. visits Lupita Nyong'o backstage at her Broadway show Eclipsed |
The Oscar-winning duo - who've never worked together - took a smiling selfie backstage at the Golden Theatre. See more photos below.
Joining 32-year-old Lupita and 48-year-old Cuba were her co-stars Pascale Armand, Zainab Jah, Akosua Busia, and Saycon Sengbloh as well as Black-ish star Tracee Ellis Ross.
Three years ago, the American Crime Story actor played Ludie Watts in the Tony-nominated, Broadway revival of The Trip to Bountiful.
The Star Wars stunner - who relies on stylist Micaela Erlanger - made her Broadway debut as the unnamed fourth wife of a Liberian warlord in Eclipsed.
The playwright - The Walking Dead's Danai Gurira - will score Drama Desk Awards' Sam Norkin trophy for bringing 'a fresh new voice to American theater,' while Sengbloh nabbed a nod as outstanding featured actress.
The 17-week run - closing June 19 - made history as the first play on Broadway to be written, directed, and performed entirely by women.
Nyong'o also voices Indian wolf mother Raksha in Disney's The Jungle Book, which has amassed $576.9M at the box office since its April 15 opening.
Meanwhile, Gooding Jr. - who just returned from Paris - is enjoying a career hiatus following his dramatic turn as O.J. Simpson in the hit FX series.
