Melissa McCarthy and Octavia Spencer have been best friends for over 20 years, and their friendship has finally moved to the big screen in their new Netflix movie, Thunder Force.
In honor of this momentous occasion, here's a look back at some of their very best offscreen BFF moments:
1. When Melissa was a guest host on Jimmy Kimmel Live and interviewed Octavia in a candy cane costume and teased her about how competitive she gets during card games.
2. When they purposely bombed this BFF test, pretending they didn't know each other's last name or marital status.
3. When they took an *actual* BFF quiz and reminisced about some of their favorite times together — like how Octavia brings ziplock bags to Melissa's house to take home leftovers after dinner.
