Youve Got Mail Cast: Where Are They Now?

AOL’s instant messaging might be a thing of the past, but You’ve Got Mail has never gone out of style.

The 1998 rom-com stars Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks as rival bookstore owners. Ryan’s character, Kathleen Kelly, owned The Shop Around the Corner, while Hanks’ Joe Fox founded the Fox Books chain, which was putting her out of business. With the help of online chatting, “Shopgirl” and “NY152” fell in love without knowing who they were falling for.

After starring alongside one another in Joe Versus the Volcano and Sleepless in Seattle, Hanks and Ryan teamed up again to make You’ve Got Mail and hoped it would be another box-office smash — and it was.

“You never know if that magic chemistry is going to strike again,” former Warner Bros. cochair Terry Semel told Entertainment Weekly in December 1998 ahead of the film’s release. “But two people falling in love — especially these two people — has international appeal. If there is such a thing as a perfect couple, Tom and Meg are it. They’re like Mr. and Mrs. World.”
