Glitz and Glamour: Julia Garner, Pedro Pascal, Natasha Lyonne Shine at Fantastic Four Premiere!
Fantastic Four: First Steps Premiere Red Carpet Rundown
The stars aligned on Monday at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion for the Los Angeles premiere of Marvel's latest blockbuster, The Fantastic Four: First Steps. And what a night it was! Julia Garner, Pedro Pascal, and Natasha Lyonne led the A-listers as they sashayed down the blue carpet in their finest attire.
Julia Garner, the 31-year-old Wolf Man actress who took on the coveted role of Silver Surfer, looked absolutely stunning in her strapless blue metallic Gucci gown. The thigh-high slit showed off her toned legs, and those black stilettos? Pure perfection! Her stylist Elizabeth Saltzman deserves a raise for that one. Garner's platinum-blonde curly pixie cut was smoothed to perfection by hairstylist Bobby Eliot, while makeup artist Zoë Taylor gave her a radiant white highlighter and neutral pout.
But what really caught our attention was Julia's sassy response to the backlash she faced over playing the iconic Marvel baddie. When asked about it on July 11, she simply shrugged and said, "Oh, well, you know. I said, 'I'm just going to still do my job.' Also, it's Shalla-Bal [not the male Norrin Radd], so it's different." Girl, we love your attitude!
Meanwhile, Pedro Pascal was dashing as ever in his white blazer and matching tank top combo, paired with a b&w cravat and black trousers. And let's not forget that stunning red carnation in his lapel! His brand new stylist Jamie Mizrahi deserves kudos for the sharp look.
But what really stole the show was Pedro's tender moment with his transgender sister Lux Pascal, who appeared amused as her famous brother helped adjust her black gown selected by stylist Freddy Alonso. Aw, we love a good sibling bond!
And speaking of siblings, Julia and Pedro were joined on the blue carpet by their Fantastic Four co-stars Vanessa Kirby (38) and Ebon Moss-Bachrach (48). The expecting Sue Storm/Invisible Woman flaunted her bourgeoning baby bump in a stunning blue fishnet mermaid dress, while Johnny Storm/Human Torch opted for an off-white top and blazer combo.
The four-time Emmy nominee (Vanessa) made sure to pose with her castmates Joseph Quinn (48), who plays Ben Grimm/The Thing, and Matty Lee (31), who donned a dashing all-black suit. The chemistry between the leads was palpable!
Natasha Lyonne brought her signature sass to the carpet in a black-patterned bustier and fishnet bejeweled maxi-skirt combo selected by stylist Brad Goreski. Her hairstylist Ben Skervin coiffed her iconic ginger curls to perfection, while makeup artist James Kaliardos applied an excess of blush.
But what really got our attention was the star-studded cast posing with their wrestling trophy belts (Paul Walter Hauser) and even a galactic Galactus (Ralph Ineson)! Yes, you read that right - it's a Marvel movie, folks!
Meanwhile, the always-dapper Dave Bautista flashed his tattooed chest beneath an open shirt, b&w-striped blazer, beige pants, and checkered loafers. Simu Liu (formerly of the MCU) donned a dashing black pinstripe double-breasted suit and brought along his fiancée of two months, Allison Hsu.
And last but not least, we have Dancing with the Stars judge Derek Hough showing off his moves with season 32 champ Xochitl Gomez on the blue carpet. Talk about a night to remember!
The Fantastic Four: First Steps is set to hit UK theaters this Thursday and US theaters this Friday, with its $200M-budget reboot promising a retro-futuristic alternate universe known as Earth-828. Don't miss it!
