“She just really took a chance on me,” Witherspoon, 49, told The Times of London about Keaton in an interview published on Saturday, October 25. “You never forget those people who give you your first job opportunities.”
“She was just truly original through it all,” Witherspoon recalled of working with Keaton, adding that the Something's Gotta Give actress was like “auntie to me” during the production process.
“I just wanted to talk to you for one second because, and I’m gonna try to get through this without tearing up, but I don’t know if you guys heard that Diane Keaton passed,” Witherspoon told the crowd during the event. “I had to take a second to just really think about it because when I was 15 years old. Diane was really important — she was one of my first mentors in this business.”

“She said, ‘Are you making that up? That accent that you’re doing?’” Witherspoon recalled Keaton asking her during their first interaction. “Well, you’re hired today, tomorrow [and] the next day. I don’t know who you are, but I’m excited to have you.”
“These past 48 hours have not been easy,” Meyers, 75, began in the caption. “Seeing all of your tributes to Diane has been a comfort. As a movie lover, I’m with you all — we have lost a giant. A brilliant actress who time and again laid herself bare to tell our stories.”
“At times over those years, she felt like a sister because we shared so many truly memorable experiences,” Meyers continued. “As a filmmaker, I’ve lost a connection with an actress that one can only dream of.”
The Parent Trap director wrote in part, “I know those who have worked with her know what I know … she made everything better. Every set up, every day, in every movie, I watched her give it her all. When I needed her to cry in scene after scene in Something’s Gotta Give she went at it hard and then somehow made it funny. And I remember she would sometimes spin in a kind of goofy circle before a take to purposely get herself off balance or whatever she needed to shed so she could be in the moment.”
