Eva Mendes is looking back at a hilarious Christmas skit starring her husband, Ryan Gosling. The two stars worked together during one of the episodes of 'Drunk History, back in 2011 with Jim Carrey as Santa Claus and Allan McLeod as the narrator.

Eva and Ryan acted out the scenes of the 1823 poem, making the 'Funny or Die' version of 'Twas the Night Before Christmas.' The pair can be seen in bed together, wearing kerchiefs and holiday-themed outfits for the skit.

The actress reflected on the funny moment with her husband and took to social media to share images from the skit. "An oldie but a goodie," she shared, adding photos of their scene together and a Christmas tree emoji. Fans praised the couple for their relationship and the milestones they have reached together since filming the video over a decade ago.

"It’s beautiful thinking about the fact that in the sketch you had two daughters and now you two have two daughters in real life," one person wrote, while someone else commented, "This is so so good! Two Canadian legends and a Cuban Queen! Please say you and Ryan will work together again at some point," adding, "So nice to finally see you all together in a video. A Christmas dream has come true."

"I’m sooo ready for it," she wrote. "Of course, I won’t actually look like this on Christmas Day. I’ll look like a sleepless elf with severe back pain drinking straight from the coffee pot. If you know -you know. But, I have the dress just in case."
