The Breakfast Club stars have barely changed as they reunite 38 years after cult film

The Breakfast Club stars are looking barely any different as they recently reunited for a Christmas get together.

Molly Ringwald and Ally Sheedy, who are best known for being the two leading ladies of The Breakfast Club (1985), met up with each other for dinner at Café Luxembourg in New York City on Sunday.

The pair posted a sweet photo of their reunion as they shared a hug in the city.

They flashed huge smiles at the camera as they looked excited to be back together.

The duo barely looked any different to when John Hughes shot the classic film in 1984.

Molly, who is now 54, captioned the snap: "Early Christmas present-dinner with my psychic sister Ally."

Ally, now 60, can be seen wearing a light brown jacket and has her dark brown hair flowing down her back with a part in the middle.

Meanwhile her former co-star looked stylish in a red coat and has her red hair styled long with a center part.

The actresses rose to fame when they both starred in The Breakfast Club.

Molly played Claire Standish in the film, who was seen as the 'Princess' and popular girl who was sent to Saturday detention for skipping school so that she could go shopping instead.

Meanwhile Ally portrayed Allison Reynolds who was called the crazy girl.

The character admitted that she only took part in the Saturday detention because she couldn't find anything better to do.

The movie was written, directed and produced by acclaimed late filmmaker John Hughes.

The film surrounded the social constructs of high schools in the 1980s.

The story centered on five teenagers who are brought together to serve a Saturday detention that's overseen by Vice-Principal Richard Vernon.

The others of the five teenagers are made up of Emilio Estevez, Judd Nelson and Anthony Michael Hall.

Emilio took on the role of the athlete Andrew Clark.

He was sent to Saturday detention for taping Larry Lester's butt cheeks together.

Judd plays John Bender, the 'criminal' who is in detention for pulling the fire alarm.

Michael portrays Brian Johnson who is known as the nerd.

A teacher ordered him to detention for bringing a flare gun that was to be used in his suicide attempt.

At first it seems the students have little in common with each other but as the day goes on, they eventually bond over a common dislike of issues likes peer pressure and parental expectations.

The Breakfast premiered in February 1985 and went on to earn critical acclaim, all while becoming a box office hit, earning $51.5 million against a $1 million budget.
