Twitter Is Going Nuts Over This Concept for a Rihanna-Lupita Nyong’o Team-Up Movie
Back in 2014, Rihanna and Lupita Nyong’o sat next to each other at the Miu Miu fashion show in Paris, and a now iconic photo was taken of the two of them in the front row. Lucky for the Internet, the photo has been resurfaced:

But, also, lots of people pointed out how awesome it would be if these two made a heist movie together:
Rihanna looks like she scams rich white men and lupita is the computer smart best friend that helps plan the scans https://t.co/PhWs1xd3nj

If an actual movie comes out of this image of Rihanna and Lupita it will be Twitter (and Tumblrs) greatest accomplishment. pic.twitter.com/KMhYeY16r1
