‘Sure Am Proud to Be Your Friend’

The ‘13 Going on 30’ co-stars have been close friends since filming the iconic romantic comedy

Jennifer Garner is celebrating two decades of friendship with one of her besties.

On Thursday, Garner took to Instagram to shout out her close friend Judy Greer. Garner, 51, met Greer, 48, on the set of the 2004 age-swapping romantic comedy, 13 Going on 30.

“Twenty years with my JG,” the Juno actress captioned the post, smiling next to her friend of two decades. “I sure am proud to be your friend. Happy birthday, @missjudygreer.”

While Garner and Greer may be close friends in real life, they met playing characters in an on-screen feud. In the beloved film, Garner played Jenna, a 13-year-old girl who woke up in the body of her 30-year-old future self, assuming the role of a high-power fashion magazine executive. Greer played Lucy, a socially fraught frenemy in both the teenage and adult storylines.

Back in 2022, Garner posted a commemoration of her friendship with Greer, this time to her Instagram story. Smiling outside on a sunny day, the Catch Me If You Can star wrote, “I am grateful for a walk with a girlfriend, always.” She proceeded to add, “Especially this one. I love JG.”
