Hollywood Glitz: Nicole Kidman, Joey King, and Zac Efron Light Up ‘A Family Affair’ Premiere
The stars were out in full force on June 13th at Los Angeles’ iconic Egyptian Theatre for the glamorous premiere of the much-anticipated rom-com “A Family Affair.” Leading the charge were the film’s stars, Nicole Kidman, Joey King, and Zac Efron, who dazzled onlookers with their chic ensembles and undeniable charisma.
A Night to Remember
Zac Efron, at 36, showed up looking dapper in a sharp gray suit, complemented by a fitted black shirt and polished black dress shoes. His suave appearance was perfectly matched by his co-stars. Nicole Kidman, 56, radiated elegance in a strapless nude gown, while Joey King, 24, turned heads in a sheer black skirt and top adorned with flowers, harmonizing beautifully with Kidman’s ensemble.
The trio, who play pivotal roles in the film, posed together on the blue carpet, exuding chemistry and camaraderie that promises to translate beautifully on screen. “A Family Affair,” directed by Richard LaGravenese, sees Efron as Chris Cole, a movie star whose womanizing behavior drives his assistant, Zara (played by King), to quit. Things take a turn when Zara discovers her widowed mother, portrayed by Kidman, has become romantically involved with Chris.
A Star-Studded Cast and Crew
The movie is a reunion for Kidman and Efron, who last shared the screen in the 2012 thriller “The Paperboy.” Efron admitted to PEOPLE that working with Kidman again brought back some jitters but emphasized how her kindness and talent made the experience delightful. “Reuniting with Nicole is always great,” he said. “As talented as she is an actress, she is equally kind, caring, and wonderful to spend time with.”
Director LaGravenese, known for his work on “P.S. I Love You,” praised the on-screen chemistry between Kidman and Efron, calling it “an answered prayer.” He also highlighted the dynamic between King and Efron, describing their interactions as an assistant and a demanding star as highly entertaining.
Behind the Scenes and On-Screen Magic
Joey King, who plays Zara, expressed her excitement about working with Kidman, calling it an iconic experience. “It’s truly one of those moments where you have to remind yourself that it’s actually your life and you’re getting to work with this person, and somehow they’re even more wonderful than you could imagine,” King said.
The plot’s unique twist on mother-daughter relationships and Hollywood star antics promises a fresh and engaging narrative. LaGravenese pointed out the role reversal between Kidman and King’s characters, where the daughter becomes the disapproving figure while the mother sneaks around having a revitalizing love affair.
A Sneak Peek into the Film
In April, PEOPLE gave fans an exclusive first look at the film, with Efron describing it as “funny, romantic, and entertaining.” This sentiment was echoed by the director and cast, all of whom highlighted the film’s charm and emotional depth. The movie also features Liza Koshy and Kathy Bates in supporting roles, adding further star power to the production.
What to Expect from ‘A Family Affair’
The movie, set to hit Netflix on June 28th, promises a blend of humor, romance, and heartfelt moments. With a screenplay by Carrie Solomon, “A Family Affair” is positioned as a must-watch for fans of the genre. The film’s exploration of complex family dynamics and Hollywood drama, combined with the stellar performances of its lead actors, sets the stage for a memorable viewing experience.
