NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: ‘Good Morning America' star George Stephanopoulos’ wife Ali Wentworth recently recalled a time when Hollywood actress Julianne Moore "shadowed" her in the sitcom ‘Nightcap.’

The 58-year-old actress and mother of two took to Instagram to share an old clip from ‘Nightcap’ where Moore can be seen imitating Wentworth and repeating the latter’s lines in the show. 

The comedic scene was a part of the sitcom which was created by Wentworth and ran for two seasons. 

‘Nightcap’ was about an overworked head talent booker on the fictitious fifth highest-rated late-night talk show called Nightcap with Jimmy, where she and her fellow workers interact with different celebrities that will appear on the show.

Ali Wentworth shares clip honoring Julianne Moore 

Wentworth shared the clip in honor of Moore’s new Netflix film ‘May December’ directed by Todd Haynes.

As per IMDb, the plot of ‘May December’ reads as follows: Twenty years after their notorious tabloid romance gripped the nation, a married couple buckles under pressure when an actress arrives to do research for a film about their past.”

The film also stars Natalie Portman and Charles Melton alongside Moore.

Wentworth’s clip from ‘Nightcap’ where Moore seems to be following the former’s every move is similar to the plot of ‘May December’ where Portman’s character comes to town to study Moore for a film project.
