THE REAL STAR OF this year’s awards season has undoubtedly been Jacob Tremblay, the nine-year-old actor from Lenny Abrahamson’s Room.

He charmed us time and again with his undeniable talent, his boundless passion for Star Wars, and his dapper little suits – but most of all, his sweet friendship with his Oscar-winning co-star Brie Larson.

Now, at the end of their gruelling press tour for the film, Brie has paid tribute to her co-star in a sweet Instagram post.

She posted a picture of the pair of them toasting their final screening of the film in Japan, and recalled the first screening 28 weeks ago at the Telluride Film Festival in Colorado:

He had chocolate milk and I had red wine. I remember feeling so vulnerable after sharing this movie with the world for the first time; unsure of what was to come. Last night marked what may be our final toast to this film. He had a soda and I had sake.

Together we have travelled the globe, spent almost two years hanging out, playfully arguing about things like who can hold their breath longer, and talking at length about Room. At its core, every step of the way has been taken with love. We were generous and patient with each other. We laughed a lot, especially when it was hard. we picked each other up, answered for one another when one was tired and always kept silliness alive.

“Thank you Room for bringing us together. Thank you Room for uniting us with the rest of the world,” she continued.

“Thank you to everyone who shared this journey with us. I will never forget it.

No, YOU’RE crying. Brie and Jacob, best friends for life.
