Saltburn Reunion! Jacob Elordi and Barry Keoghan Pose Together at the Toronto International Film Festival
The Saltburn boys are back together!
The stars of the 2023 raunchy dramedy, Jacob Elordi and Barry Keoghan, reunited on the red carpet at the 2024 Toronto International Film Festival, which they attended to promote separate projects.
On Saturday, Sept. 7, the Euphoria star, 27, and the Banshees of Inisherin actor, 31, brought back a pinch of the playful flirtatiousness they showcased while promoting Saltburn as they snapped photos together at Variety’s TIFF Step & Repeat.
As the pair posed in nearly identical button-up tops, Elordi smiled and wrapped his arm around Keoghan, who opted to flash a peace sign.

Also on Saturday, Elordi celebrated the premiere of his movie On Swift Horses by posing with costars Daniel Minahan, Daisy Edgar-Jones, Sasha Calle, Diego Calva and Will Poulter.
Keoghan, meanwhile, stepped out for the premiere of his drama film Bird, along with castmate Nykiya Adams.
Saltburn — which follows Oliver (Keoghan), who is invited to the lavish family estate of his Oxford University classmate Felix (Elordi) for the 2007 summer holiday — quickly became a pop-culture sensation thanks to its eyebrow-raising moments and writer-director Emerald Fennell.
Following the film’s November 2023 release, Sophie Ellis-Bextor’s song “Murder on the Dancefloor” — which received a significant placement in the film’s soundtrack — experienced a major resurgence, while a candle inspired by one of Elordi’s NSFW scenes went viral.
Inspired by the moment in which Elordi’s character Felix has a moment of solo intimacy in a bathtub (before Oliver proceeds to drink the leftover bathwater), the candles caught the attention of both leads.
When Jimmy Fallon asked Elordi about the headline-making candle on The Tonight Show, the star revealed that he was aware of them, and joked, “I wanna know who’s making the money, you know? My first thing was like, ‘Great, where’s my money?’ ”
And after giving one a sniff, he said, “Smells like a washing room. Like detergent.”
Keoghan also reacted to the viral candle, previously joking with Variety that he “already [has] 10 of” the viral bathwater candles.
“They’re all burning at my house right now,” he said.
Keoghan and Elordi have not been shy about the tight bond they formed on the set of Saltburn, with the former telling GQ earlier this year that the Kissing Booth star is “like a brother to me, honestly.”
Of their flirtatiousness off-screen — including the duo almost kissing each other on the red carpet — he told the outlet, “I’m really flirtin’. … We were constantly close. It ain’t just for the cameras and the premiere[s].”
“I think when you’re comfortable with someone, you can be as close as you want, you know what I mean?” Keoghan added of the actors’ rapport.
“We’re bein’ lads,” he continued. “We’ve just done a movie where we had to kiss, man. Look at the scenes we’ve done. You have to be comfortable with yourself.”
