Penélope Cruz and Salma Hayek Reunite 17 Years After Starring in ‘Bandidas’ Together

Penélope Cruz and Salma Hayek are still making waves! Seventeen years after starring in the 2006 film Bandidas, the actresses and close friends came together to attend a luncheon honouring Cruz, 49, for her role in her latest movie, Ferrari. Hosted by Hayek, 57, and Kristen Stewart, the event was attended by the likes of Alicia Silverstone, Geena Davis and Vin Diesel.

While Bandidas is the only film project Hayek and Cruz have starred in together, they have remained close pals over the years – from the moment Cruz first landed in Los Angeles. "I was coming here for two months and I didn't know anyone here," Cruz said last year on The Ellen DeGeneres Show. "And [Salma] picked me up and said, 'You're not going to the hotel. You're coming to my house because this is hard at the beginning and you're going to feel very lonely.'" The Oscar winner was admittedly scared when she first reached Southern California, and even initially slept in Hayek's room.
