The Help star Jessica Chastain has met her acting icon after dropping her an email and requesting a get together.
The red head has always been a huge fan of Isabelle Huppert and recently flew to Paris when the French actress invited her to dinner.
Chastain tells The Hollywood Reporter, "She was doing (play) Hedda Gabler onstage in Paris, and I asked if we could have dinner. I was nervous as hell and totally intimidated, but I flew over, saw the play... It was one of the coolest dinners I've ever had.
"We talked like mad; now I hope we will stay friends... I've always been obsessed with her and want to emulate her career."
