Idris Elba and unlikely pal Jude Bellingham were in great spirits as they made a 1am arrival at the Chiltern Firehouse to party with Paul Mescal on Friday.
The actor, 51, and England footballer, 21, put on a very animated display and wrapped their arms around each other after attending Dr Dre and Snoop Dogg's Gin & Juice bash earlier in the evening.
For his busy night Idris opted for a casual ensemble with a Disney DSYF hoodie including hoodie which he teamed with shorts.
The Hollywood actor completed the look with contrasting white trainers and matching designer socks.
Meanwhile Jude wore a black satin suit that featured a bejewelled trim which he layered over a grey vest.

Despite arriving together Idris headed home around 3.30am alongside stunning wife Sabrina, 32.
The beauty, who also attended the star-studded Dr Dre event with her husband and step daughter Isan, 22, wore a form-fitting lemon sweater and jeans.
Football fan Idris was seen beaming alongside King Charles last week as they showed their support for the England team ahead of the Euro finals - after meeting to discuss the future of the King's Trust, of which the legendary actor is an alum, today.
The monarch, 75, opted for a pinstripe suit and grinned as he proudly brandished an England shirt with performer and musician at St James's Palace ahead of the team's tragic 2-1 loss against Spain.
Idris also donned a dapper all-blue ensemble and posed with a Bukayo Saka shirt following the event.
Discussions ranged from the charity's ongoing work to support young people to how it can continue creating positive opportunities and initiatives which might help address youth violence in the UK.
The pair also spoke about how the Trust can collaborate with the Elba Hope Foundation in Sierra Leone, where the The Wire star also has citizenship.
Both are also pledging to work together on a new 'Creative Futures' initiative, to inspire young people through the arts and support them into jobs in the creative industries.

Idris and Charles also joined in on a roundtable discussion - where Prime Minister Keir Starmer was also present - with people from youth organisations to hear their reflections.
As a teenager, Idris was given a £1,500 grant by The then-Prince's Trust to go to the National Youth Music Theatre - and has since become an international superstar.
And it's not the only link he has to the royals - in 2018, the star also DJ'd at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's wedding.
In 2020, Idris was also among the group of celebrities and creatives to thank the Prince's Trust in a video released by the charity - to celebrate helping one million young people.
In the clip the actor credited the Trust with giving him the start he needed to launch his now blockbuster career.
'When I was about 18 years old, I had the wonderful experience of auditioning for The Prince's Trust,' he revealed.
'I was awarded £1,500 by The Prince's Trust that gave me my start and my career.'
Idris, who was born in east London to Sierra Leonean father and Ghanaian mother, has since become a household name for his work on TV and film, having won both Emmys and BAFTAs.
The Luther star has worked with The Trust for years, and recorded a short video in 2010 showing him meeting with youth work Dante Lauder-Hawkins for the charity.
