Richard E. Grant has broken the internet after filming a clip with the TikTok star, who is known for impersonating the Saltburn star.
Actor Luke Millington Drake has gained a large social media following for his videos, especially when he performs impressions of Hollywood actor 66.
The pair sent fans wild on Wednesday after remaking one of the Tik Tok star's skits, where Luke Richard pretends to run around the field.
In the new clip, the real Richard and fake Richard enjoy a stroll through the grass before coming face-to-face – at which point a debate erupts over who is the real article.
Stars including Hannah Waddingham and Liv Tyler were quick to show how keen they were on the collaboration. Dead Lasso Actress 'BraaabloodyVO!'
Titled 'Richard vs. Richard', the video begins with the Spice World actor telling the camera 'Happy Hump Day All' before switching to Luke saying 'It's a beautiful day outside'.
Both declare 'Buff Off' and continue running down the field before the two come face-to-face in dramatic fashion.
'Who are you?' Richard asks Luke – who is wearing a green sweater vest and a red shirt with large framed glasses.
'I am Richard E. Grant, who are you?' Luke responds, to which Richard insists that he's the real deal.
Luke then tests Richard's true knowledge: 'Well, you're Richard E. If Grant, fill in the blank. Hello my name is Richard Blank Grant.'
'E,' Richard harps again, prompting Luke to exclaim: 'Damn. He failed at the first hurdle.'
It's the real Richard's turn to test Luke, at which point he asks: 'Are you Richard E. Grant, whose face is on the statue in my garden?'
'I've got Barbra Streisand in my garden,' Luke replies perfectly. 'Double damn,' Richard replies.
Luke asks: 'Barbra Streisand won an Oscar for which movie? A. Happy Girl b. Funny Girl or c. Gone Girl?'
'Don't try to rain on my parade baby,' Richard says in reference to Barbara's iconic song from Funny Girl.
Referring to Richard's recent role as Sir James in the Hollywood film, Luke replied: 'Oh no. Saltburn.'
Turning defensive, the real Richard asks 'fake' Richard: 'If there were two Richards, would that make for double the joy, double the laughter, double the bags of joy?'
The pair admitted they were better together and chanted 'Hydrangeas', this time together, wearing top hats and singing 'Run Richard, Richard, run run run'.
The pair's fans have been raving about the collaboration, with actress and musical theater sensation Hannah, 49, showing her support.
'This really made my day!' commented on Instagram. 'Baligood Show Boys! BraaabloodyVO!'
Another star gushed over the skit, Lord of the Rings actress Liv Tyler, 46, who goes by the Instagram name @misslivalittle: 'It's amazing and beyond !!!!!!'
S Club's Rachel, 45, was a fan, calling it 'so brilliant', while Made in Chelsea's Pinkie Felstead shared clapping emojis and 'yess'.
Several social media stars expressed interest in the clip, including hilarious celebrity impersonator Mary Elizabeth Kelly.
'This is the funniest most amazing thing ever,' she wrote, while fellow TikTok star Em Clarkson said: 'No it's the best thing to ever happen to the internet.'
The video was flooded with comments from other fans of both Richard and Luke, who were excited about the two coming together.
'No no no, I'm not ready for this glory today,' said one excitedly.
Another wrote: 'I'm so in love with you both and glad to have met you. Please make a film now.'
Keira Knightley, 38, another Hollywood star who has been known to do a Luke impersonation, has fans amazed by her ability to mimic the English actress' way of speaking.
After securing a collaboration with Richard, people were eager to see Luke remake another of his clips with the Love Actually actress.
'OMG THIS IS AMAZING!!!!' One person said. 'Now Keira Knightley!!'
