Who could ever forget the iconic Spiceworld- The Movie of the 1990s? Well, if you did, there was a surprise reminder this week in the form of a reunion between two of the film’s stars. In a post on Instagram, Victoria Beckham (ask Posh Spice) was seen smiling in a selfie alongside The Thursday Murder Club’s Richard E Grant.
While Victoria played herself in the musical comedy, Richard played the fictional character of Clifford, and reminded the world of his role as he shared a photograph alongside Victoria to social media.
He captioned the image, ‘🎶’STOP RIGHT NOW’ 🎶’ and said that he ‘worked with @victoriabeckham on SPICEWORLD – THE MOVIE, 28 years ago’. As chance would have it, the pair were both holidaying separately in Italy when they bumped into each other.
Richard explained that they ‘found ourselves at adjacent lunch tables today @ristoranteloscoglio on the Amalfi coast’, and added that Victoria was ‘as delightful and warm as you could wish for,’ when they were reintroduced.

While Victoria isn’t rumoured to be taking on a starring role in any new films any time soon, Richard has a hand in one of the most exciting upcoming releases of the moment; The Thursday Murder Club.
Netflix confirmed that the actor is part of the already star-studded cast, which sees Dame Helen Mirren, Pierce Brosnan, Celia Imrie and Ben Kingsley taking the four leads. The Netflix film is adapted from Richard Osman’s murder mystery series of the same name, which is set in a retirement home.
