According to PEOPLE, the picture appears to be from the set of the 1997 comedy Fathers' Day, which starred Crystal, Williams, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Nastassja Kinski and Sugar Ray. In the film, Crystal and Williams play two men with the same former partner who sends them on a search for her son, who might belong to either of them.

As per the publication, Williams died on Aug. 11, 2014, at his home in Paradise Cay, San Francisco. He was 63. The actor had been struggling with an undiagnosed brain disorder known as Lewy Body Dementia. His death was ruled a suicide.

Crystal and Williams' friendship began in the 1980s when they were both rising stars in comedy and film. Along with Whoopi Goldberg, they co-hosted Comic Relief USA events to raise money for the homeless.

Over the years, the two appeared together at many Hollywood events. In 1998, a year after the release of Fathers' Day, Crystal hosted the Academy Awards, where Williams won an Oscar for his role in Good Will Hunting.

Williams is survived by his three children: Zak, Cody, and Zelda Williams.
