Blake Lively Do you know how dress for a theme! The 36-year-old actress stole the spotlight with a pair of jaw-dropping looks for her husband Ryan Reynolds‘ Deadpool and Wolverine premiere and after-party in New York on Monday.
First, Lively arrived on the Lincoln Center red carpet hand-in-hand with her friend. Gigi Hadid. She channeled Reynolds’ Merc with a Mouth character in a red Atelier Versace jumpsuit with intricate black detailing, while Hadid, 29, offered a couture take Hugh JackmanWolverine costume with yellow skirt and scarf top by Miu Miu.
“I’ve seen this movie a few times now, and I love it more each time. It’s really special,” Lively told ET at the event. “… The amount of millennial girl references here, you don’t expect that. You think (of a) male superhero movie (and) they’re all about action and testosterone, but not this one.”
Later, Lively and company changed their looks for a party at Jazz at Lincoln Center.
O It Ends With Us the star opted for a baby blue Balmain mini dress adorned with red roses. Reynolds, 47, coordinated with a blue shirt and pants combo that featured a small Deadpool and Wolverine pin in his waist that appears to have been designed by Lorraine Schwartz.
Hadid also switched up her style with a sheer yellow raincoat over a black bodysuit, bright yellow pumps and a matching bag.
Talking to ET earlier that nightReynolds commented on the love he received from his wife of 12 years as he prepares to debut the highly anticipated Marvel project.
“She’s amazing. She’s so smart, everything I do is in tune with her and now she just takes every step with me — sometimes the scary ones, sometimes the ones that are, more often than not, headed straight for danger,” Reynolds joked of Lively, whom he married in 2012.
He added: “I’m so grateful to her. She’s so smart and so funny and (she) really helped with every aspect of this film.”
The couple have children: James, 9, Inez, 7, Betty, 4, and Olin, 1. whose name was revealed for the first time on Monday.
“I want to start by thanking my wife Blake, who is here,” Reynolds told the crowd seated inside the theater. “I want to thank my children James, Inez, Betty, Olin, who are here. I hope that, if I’m lucky, this moment is the most traumatic thing — that is, the content of this film — that happens in your wonderful life.”
Reynolds — after drawing a wave of laughter from the audience — continued: “I love that my whole family is here.”
Earlier that day, Lively took to Instagram to gush about her man.
“My year 2000 girls, I should be competitive because @itendswithusmovie is coming out in 3 weeks BUT when your high school obsessions, your post-baby feelings, or about cool men who use feminism as a tool, your love of The Wizard of Oz, Succession, Sandy & Danny, driving with Avril blasting, the way the choreography to a certain boy band song got me, Baz Luhrmann’s fireworks to punctuate a moment, even the fact that our hair color is determined by the seasons and the French method by which it is dyed are all so seen… MY WORD… it’s hard not to encourage my girls to identify all the ways in which we influence @filmeDeadpool I’ve never been so proud. And I’ve given birth 4 times. 🤣
❤️💛”, she joked.
Deadpool and Wolverine hits theaters on July 26th and It Ends With Us premieres on August 9th.
