Jack Lowden stopped for a drink at the pub with an unlikely companion on Wednesday, as he was joined by CEO of Apple, Tim Cook.
The actor, 34, met up with the business executive, 64, to discuss the upcoming fifth season of his hit series, Slow Horses, which airs on Apple TV+.
Tim took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share a picture of the pair smiling widely while enjoying a pint together in the London pub.
Captioning the cheerful snap, the billionaire wrote: ‘There’s nothing like London during the holidays. It was great to meet with Slow Horses star, Jack Lowden, to tell him how excited we are for season 5 on Apple TV+!’
Slow Horses tells the story of an intelligence team banished to Slough House, an MI5 backwater, for generally being bad at their jobs and is based on the best-selling novel series by Mick Herron.
Jack stars as River Cartwright, an up-and-coming MI5 agent shunted to the team, which is led by Jackson Lamb, played by Oscar winner Gary Oldman.

Since its premiere in 2022, the thrilling show has been praised as ‘forceful, funny, and conspiratorial’ and branded ‘undoubtedly the best spy series on television’.
And when the Golden Globes nominations were announced on Monday, the series bagged itself an impressive three nods, including one for Jack.
The Scottish star has already earned himself nominations for an Emmy and two BAFTAs for his role as River in the series.
His first Golden Globe nod will see him go up against, Tadanobu Asano, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, Harrison Ford, Diego Luna and Javier Bardem, Best Supporting TV Actor.
While his co-star Gary is nominated for Best TV Drama Actor, facing strong competition from Eddie Redmayne, Donald Glover, Jake Gyllenhaal, Hiroyuki Sanada and Billy Bob Thornton.
And Slow Horses will also compete in the Best TV Drama Series category beside
Shōgun, The Diplomat, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, The Day of the Jackal and Squid Game.
The fifth series was announced in January, and upon the conclusion of season four in October, a sixth season was ordered by Apple TV+.
The news came after the latest season earned a perfect score on Rotten Tomatoes and broke records for the streamer, while making it Apple TV’s highest-rated show ever.

Jay Hunt, creative director, Europe, Apple TV+, said: ‘Audiences around the world have fallen in love with the Slow Horses, and I’m delighted that Gary Oldman will be leading this star-studded cast on another acerbic and action-packed adventure.’
As well as his acting career reaching new peaks, Jack is also riding high in his personal life, after tying the knot with four-time Oscar nominee Saoirse Ronan in July.
The couple met while starring opposite each other in Mary Queen of Scots in 2018, with Saoirse, 30, playing the titular role while Jack played Lord Darnley, the Queen’s second husband, known for his salacious sexual nature.
Their on-screen romance foreshadowed what was to come, and they started dating in December that year, before secretly getting married six years later in Edinburgh.
Saoirse has remained fiercely private about their relationship and does not have a social media presence, but gave a small insight during a new interview.
Appearing on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon last month, the star joked that her husband keeps disappointing her by refusing to perform a ‘cheesy karaoke duet’ of her choice.
Saoirse said: ‘I’ve been desperate for myself and my husband Jack to do a cheesy karaoke duet.

‘It’s Shallow from A Star is Born. I want him to be my Bradley, and I’ll be his Gaga. And he won’t do it. He hasn’t committed.
‘And I’m sort of like, well, what’s marriage for? You know what I mean? What are we doing here?’
She also recently told British Vogue: ‘I became successful when I was quite young. So it meant that, actually, by the time I found my partner, I’m now at the stage where, if it happened, I would like to have a kid.
‘I feel fortunate enough that, if I step out of this for a minute, I’m hopefully not giving it up forever. But, yeah, I’ve always wanted that.’
