Behold Michael Douglas and Matt Damon, spotted in character for the first time as Liberace and his 39-years-younger lover for Behind the Candelabra.

The HBO biopic, due out next year, centers on Liberace's ill-fated love affair and his struggle to keep his homosexuality under wraps before his death from AIDS in 1987.

"It's scripted that there's more than one [kiss]," Damon said last year. "I never thought I would get to kiss Michael Douglas."
