The former spouses reunited for a celeb-studded digital table read of the classic ’80s film Fast Times at Ridgemont High in an effort to fundraise with Sean Penn’s foundation, CORE, for COVID-19 relief.
Other famous faces who contributed to the virtual reading included Matthew McConaughey, Julia Roberts, Henry Golding, Morgan Freeman, John Legend, and Shia LaBeouf.

The reenactment quickly took over Twitter, with longtime fans of Pitt and Aniston losing their minds over the hilariously awkward clip.
