And Tom Hardy and Leonardo DiCaprio were clearly in the mood for celebrating as they enjoyed a night on the town at London's Groucho club on Thursday evening.
Fresh from attending the UK premiere of their hard-hitting flick, the Hollywood stars proved the night was still young as they attended an aftershow dinner at Balthazar, Covent Garden, before hitting the exclusive nightspot.

Unsurprisingly, the duo also looked to be a hit with female fans, particularly Tom, whose cheek was brandished with a pink lipstick mark as he made his way along a street that was lined with fans, eager for autographs from the co-stars.
The Legend actor put on a stylish display in a sophisticated navy winter coat worn open over his grey Burberry suit and red tie.
Tom, 38, looked to have visited the barbers for the action-packed evening with his clean, short back and sides ensuring he appeared his best.
The star looked to have stepped up security as he was escorted out of the nightspot with a security guard who was harnessing what appeared to be a folding knife.
Leonardo looked equally suave in a knee-length overcoat, white shirt and patterned navy tie, though the 40-year-old star attempted to hide his profile beneath a flat cap while signing autographs.
The handsome twosome were of course joined by their The Revenant co-stars during their fun-filled evening, including Will Poulter (The Maze Runner) and Domhnall Gleeson (Anna Karenina), both of whom were also sharp-suited.
Swedish actress Noomi Rapace - who starred alongside Tom in 2014 movie The Drop - was also seen leaving the celebrity haunt in a retro pink jacket, which she paired with outlandish pink stilettos to make for a colour coordinated finished.
But while Tom headed home to his wife Charlotte Riley, and young son Louis, at 1am, Leo clearly wasn't ready to call it a night as he headed to the Chiltern Firehouse with MacBeth star Michael Fassbender.
Their night on the town came just a short while after Leo and Tom dazzled at the Empire Theatre in Leicester Square as they promoted their new Academy Award nominated flick.
Once again acting icon signed autographs and shook hands with a plethora of female fans who were thrilled to be within touching distance of their idol.
Excitement filled the air as the two Hollywood heavyweights soaked up the atmosphere in the world famous square surrounded by hundreds of fans.
Like his co-star, Tom signed plenty of memorabilia and posed for selfies with a number of lucky film fans.
It's been a successful year for Hardy, who is up for his first Academy Award after being nominated in the Best Supporting Actor category for his role as the villainous John Fitzgerald.
And two of the star's films, The Revenant and Mad Max: Fury Road, are up for Best Picture.
Leo and Tom have previously appeared together in Christopher Nolan's Inception, and are clearly firm friends.
They placed an arm around each other when they were photographed inside the theatre and a joke shared between the two left them recoiling with their hands over their mouths.
The Revenant has scored 12 nominations for this year's Oscars, with nods in the Best Picture, Best Actor and Best Director categories.
In an interview with the Radio Times, DiCaprio's co-star Domnhall Gleeson, 32, said he felt the actor's performance in The Revenant was his 'career best work'.
The Harry Potter actor said: 'The effect of what he's done I feel most palpably in the performance, not in how other people respond to it, just in how I responded to it. I think he’s already a phenomenal actor.
'He got to a standard I wasn’t sure anybody was capable of, really, with what he did.'
On Thursday morning, Leo spoke to This Morning presenters Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby about award season, the pair quizzed him on whether this would be the year he would finally win an Oscar.
He said: 'I do know that it’s completely beyond my control at this point. It’s interesting, because that’s not why you do the work, you know?
'You do the work because you love making movies and you want to look back and have a filmography that you’re proud of.
'When you’re on set you have to give everything that you possibly can while you’re there but of course being recognised by your peers and all that other stuff that happens is kind of the cherry on the cake so to speak.
But all the work from me has been done, I’ve done everything I could possibly do, so it’s all up to you to decide whether it's worthy of being seen or talked about or awarded.'
The film sees the esteemed actor play Hugh Glass, a taciturn, greasy-haired 1820s fur trapper left for dead in the wilderness by his own hunting team after being mauled by a bear that rips his throat.
In a fight for survival, Glass treks through snow-covered forests, gets swept away in a waterfall, sleeps inside the carcass of a disemboweled horse and hungrily eats raw bison liver before making it back to his camp.
Speaking at the première, Tom Hardy revealed he had DiCaprio to thank for convincing him to take his role in The Revenant.
He said: 'Leo gave me a call and Sean Penn had bailed and he was like, "When can we get you out here?" No, I'm joking, but he did give me a call and we spoke and he said there's good money and the script is awesome.'
The Oscars were never far from the lips of the cast, especially whether it could be sixth time lucky for DiCaprio who picked up the best actor award at the Golden Globes on Sunday.

'I feel very proud and happy for my colleagues. I think this could be Leo's year to win, I hope so, I think he did a brilliant job," said Inarritu, who was effusive about his lead.
'His body of work shows how great he is as an actor. He's also at the perfect age as an actor, he has all the talent, all the sensitivity. We saw the same opportunities playing this very silent role, without words and just using his body and his eyes to communicate so many things. He was great.'
The Mexican director, who specifically thanked the Native American cast of The Revenant as he picked up his Golden Globes, was also vocal about the controversy surrounding this year's Academy Awards, with critics noting the lack of black actors up for the biggest awards, and the best-director category all male.
'I think it's a shame there's not more diversity on the screen because films are a mirror of humanity, we should be seeing ourselves there, all of us. Many more stories of minorities should be told and supported and financed,' he said.
Hardy was more modest about his nomination.
'I don't know how it happened,' he admitted.
DiCaprio has previously called it 'the most difficult film' he has ever done due to the freezing temperatures and having only one and a half hours a day of natural light to get their shots, but the cast said they were lucky to have his dulcet tones to keep morale up.
Will Poulter said: 'Leo put in a shift when it came to cheering us up. He sang show tunes one day when it was pocketing it down. He had a great voice and knew all the lyrics too, which is critical. We became very reliant on each other's company.'
The star-studded première proved to be a popular ticket.
Oscar-nominated Noomi Rapace wowed in a fitted pink coat with black trim. The eye-catching number was in keeping with her bubbly personality and was complemented by a pair of dangly pink earrings and black leather gloves.
The star's short black hair was worn in a tousled style and her flawlessly applied make-up included a slick of pink lipstick.
Screen legend John Hurt looked full of health after declaring himself free of pancreatic cancer in October last year.
The 75-year-old arrived with his wife Anwen Rees-Myers on his arm and smiled heartily for the cameras.
Speaking at October's Man Booker Prize ceremony in London, the Elephant Man star said: ‘I had a final scan and it’s all gone brilliantly.
'I had the final scan yesterday [Monday] and I saw my oncologist this morning [Tuesday].
I am overjoyed, I am thrilled. It all looks great for the future, it’s fantastic.’
He added that he remains wary of using words such as ‘remission’ even ‘if it’s true’.
Game of Thrones actress Maisie Williams braved the cold in a sophisticated blazer with matching shorts and a pair of black heels.
The 18-year-old star displayed a quirky handbag by Kate Spade NY, in the shape of a red car as she posed with her hand on her hips.
