Jennifer Garner had "zero chill" when she got a surprise phone call from someone she admires very much, actress Julie Andrews.

Journalist Katie Couric arranged the call, and Garner uploaded a collage of her reaction to Instagram.

"[Couric] asked [Andrews] to call me," she writes. "It was a surprise. I'm sure you'll be shocked to learn this, but I love her..."

Later, Couric shared video of the conversation on Instagram.

"I wanted to tell you I'm a huge fan and love what you do," Andrews told Garner. "And Katie was just telling me that you were pretty admiring of me, too, so I thought, 'Well let's just have a chat.'"

Happy day after #thanksgiving everyone! I wanted to share with you all one of my favorite videos of all time - when I played matchmaker for Jen Garner and Dame Julie Andrews! Julie is on my #podcast this week (link is in my bio or you can listen anywhere you get podcasts) and while we were recording I asked if she would be willing to call Jen, who I know is a huge fan. And the rest they say, was history! Enjoy ? #matchmadeinheaven #julieandrews #socute #podcast #newepisode
