WATCH: Brad Pitt, Jennifer Aniston and Joaquin Phoenix were among the night's winners at Sunday's Screen Actors Guild Awards, while the South Korean hit 'Parasite' made history as the first foreign film to win Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture – Jan 20, 2020

Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston were reunited at the 2020 Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Awards ceremony on Sunday night in Los Angeles.

The actors, who were married for five years from 2000 to 2005, each won awards and celebrated the other’s win.

During the show, Pitt accepted his award for Outstanding Performance by a Male Actor in a Supporting Role for Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood.

“Let’s be honest, it was a difficult part,” Pitt joked. “The guy who gets high, takes his shirt off and doesn’t get on with his wife. It’s a big stretch. Big.”

The camera cut to Aniston in the crowd, who clapped and smiled at Pitt’s joke.

ET Canada’s Cheryl Hickey caught up with Aniston after she accepted her award and told her about Pitt watching her speech backstage.

“You had a lot of people emotional while you were giving your speech,” Hickey told the Friends star.

“I did?” Aniston asked.

“Backstage here, you had Brad Pitt watching that monitor, crying,” Hickey told Aniston.

“No, no!” Aniston responded in disbelief.

This is the second award show this year where the pair have run into each other.

At the Golden Globe Awards earlier this month, Pitt was asked by Entertainment Tonight if he would welcome bumping into Aniston during the show.

“I’ll run into Jen,” Pitt said. “She’s a good friend.”

He joked that it would be the “second most important reunion of her year,” referencing the possible Friends reunion.
