Turning out for the gala dinner at the Italian film festival, the Hollywood heavyweights looked delighted to see each other, and were all smiles as they embraced one another and shared a joke.
The Queen actress looked every-inch the glamorous A-Lister in her evening attire, teaming an open-neck blouse with a ruffled and lace-trimmed skirt - rounding-off her look with a pair of strappy sandals.
Antonio, 54, was just as stylish as his fellow thespian, carrying-off a smart-casual ensemble by teaming a navy polo shirt with a lightweight, grey suit.

The pair, who were deep in conversation , were accompanied by their respective partners.
Helen arrived at the glamorous haunt - on the picturesque island of Ischia, just off the coast of Naples - with her 70-year-old husband, director Taylor Hackford.
The Devil's Advocate director followed his wife's lead and opted for a tonal, smart-casual look - off-set with a pair tan sandals.

Antonio meanwhile was accompanied by his 34-year-old girlfriend, Nicole Kempel.
The Expendables 3 star has been dating the Dutch investment banker - who is 20 years his junior - following his split from his wife of 18 years, Melanie Griffiths, in 2014.
Nicole looked stunning in a multicoloured dress, wearing her long hair loose and down past her shoulders.
The leggy finance whizz rounded-off her summery look with a pair of nutmeg, open-toed heedl and a small clutch.
Antonio and the blonde bombshell looked the picture of love, as the pair were seen deep in conversation over dinner - with the Spanish star looking as if he had eyes for no one else but her.

Also in attendance at the ritzy part were Italian model-turned-actress Chiara Baschetti and actor Gabriel Garko.
Though Antonio and Helen aren't the A-listers who have hit the festival on the Italian isle, as talk-show supremo Jimmy Kimmel also attended the film and music event over the weekend.
The Jimmy Kimmel Live! host was presented with an award for his work in television at a dinner on Sunday.
According to Variety.com, the festival on Ischia is a sister event to the Capri Hollywood festival in Los Angeles.
Both festivals have been set-up to foster closer ties between Hollywood and the European film industries, providing an informal and relaxed setting where industry movers on both sides of the Atlantic can network while staying in luxury resorts.
