Oh to be a fly on this wall! Two of the most amazing English actors on Earth , Alan Rickman and Ian McKellen dined together at The Ivy in London on Friday.

Alan has a pretty busy schedule at moment. He is reprising his role as Severus Snape in the latest Harry Potter flick, The Half Blood Prince due out in July, and he just wrapped up his role in the upcoming Alice in Wonderland film being remade by Tim Burton. Though no pictures have been seen of Snape on set yet, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows has been filming in the U.K.

If you are craving a little Rickman in your life right now, check out his performance in Bottle Shock currently on DVD.

Sir Ian is rumored to reprise his role of Gandalf in The Hobbit when it begins filming in 2010.
