Maisie Williams and Sophie Turner became fast friends playing sisters Arya and Sansa Stark, respectively, on "Game of Thrones."

Dubbed "Mophie," Williams and Turner's friendship extends back to season one of the HBO series. The friends show how close they are by having matching tattoos to honor August 7, 2009, the day they both learned they were cast on the show; documenting their adventures and friendship on social media; and lovingly praising each other whenever they get the chance.

Turner, who is engaged to singer Joe Jonas, even asked Williams to be a bridesmaid. The actress also once told INSIDER that Williams was her "soul mate." 



Michelle Williams and Busy Philipps formed an epic and heartwarming friendship on the set of "Dawson's Creek."

Phillips joined the teen drama in its fifth season, but despite coming to the show late, she and Williams developed an everlasting friendship. They often hit red carpets together and Phillips' social media is full of photos of the friends.

In honor of the show's 20th anniversary, the two friends spoke to Entertainment Weekly about their fast bond. A mutual friend told Phillips she would get along with Williams, and she was right.

"You know how people say love at first sight?" Phillips said. "We had that thing. We had that friend connection ... We just had an immediate love for each other that's continued over the years."

Williams called Phillips the "first real friend" she had and said, "My memory of being with her then doesn't have anything to do with the show or working, but it was on our time off. It was talking on the porch all night long and it was back when bread was still okay to eat ... That's what I remember: an endless conversation over multiple bread baskets."



Camila Mendes and Lili Reinhart play best friends Veronica and Betty on "Riverdale," and that closeness extends to real life.

The two friends spoke with J-14 about how their best friend status didn't start right away but has grown into something special. 

"Our friendship wasn't instant," Mendes said. "We both come from such different backgrounds that I think it took us a while to find some common ground. But once the walls came down and our inner goofballs began to reveal themselves, we were unstoppable, and now it's almost like we speak our own language." 

Reinhart agreed, adding, "Camila and I instantly got along, but obviously like any friendship, it took time to build a bond and get really close to one another."

Now, the women share fun photos on their social accounts and are always spotted together.
