Oscar-nominated actor Dame Emma Thompson has been pictured on-board a £200million superyacht on the water in Venice.
The gargantuan vessel belongs to billionaire Fox News co-founder Barry Diller and his wife Diane von Furstenberg.
Von Furstenberg is also a household name thanks to her globally successful designer fashion brand.
And the trio weren't the only A-listers on-board the yacht as the likes of Diane Sawyer and Candice Bergen were also spotted.
The outing is worlds away from a previous famous boat incident involving Thompson dating back to 2019.
The actor joined Extinction Rebellion protestors on the streets of London where she irked the public by blocking traffic in protest.

Alongside fellow protestors, Thompson boarded a bright pink "boat" on the streets of London, bringing traffic to a standstill.
However, she was criticised at the time for the hypocrisy of jetting back and forth from LA to London to attend the protests.
She even read aloud a fake weather report during the protest as she preached about the world heading for "irreversible change".
Thompson defended her actions by claiming she was racking up far fewer air miles since taking part in climate change activism.
The actor has homes in the US, UK and Venice itself alongside her husband and fellow actor, Greg Wise.
Also joining her onboard the superyacht was Mujen Spirits co-founder Bruce Bozzi who shared a snapshot of his time in Venice alongside the stars.
Bozzi posted a snap of a dinner he shared with the A-listers and their families as he captioned: "Most beautiful fish caught last night fed this family of friends!
"Family owned small restaurant, great white wine, loving conversation with close friends ....my favorite! Hello Saturday."
