Kerry Washington and Sean Patrick Thomas shared the screen for the first time when they played siblings in the 2001 cult classic film, Save the Last Dance.

But they've reunited for Hulu's new spicy original series, Reasonable Doubt! Kerry acts as an executive producer and also directed the pilot episode of the legal drama, while Sean stars on the show.

The show is juicy! And after reading this synopsis from Hulu, you might feel the same way: "You'll judge Jax Stewart for her questionable ethics and wild interpretations of the law…until you're the one in trouble. Then you'll see her for what she is: the most brilliant and fearless defense attorney in Los Angeles who bucks the justice system at every chance she gets."

So when the series made its debut on the streaming service yesterday, the former costars took to Twitter to share how good it felt to work together again.
