Matt Damon and his wife, Luciana Barroso, attended the premiere of the new movie, IF, in New York City. Damon looked sharp in a black suit with a matching t-shirt and black leather dress shoes, while Barroso dazzled in a strapless white dress and platform heels. The couple posed together on the red carpet and interacted with co-star Emily Blunt. Damon voices a character named Sunny in IF, a mixed animation film about a girl named Bea who can see imaginary friends. The movie is written and directed by John Krasinski, Blunt’s husband, who also stars in the film as Bea’s father.
Damon and Barroso missed the UK premiere of IF after attending the Met Gala. Damon wore a classic black Dior tuxedo to the event, while Barroso stunned in a white strapless Dior dress. The couple has been married since 2005 and share three daughters, with Damon also considering Barroso’s daughter from a previous relationship as his own. They have been seen enjoying romantic outings at events like New York Fashion Week and the Golden Globes with friends like Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez. Damon has previously spoken about taking a break from acting to focus on couple’s therapy with Barroso before returning to the screen for Oppenheimer last year.
In IF, Damon’s character Sunny and Bea, played by Cailey Fleming, team up with their neighbor, Cal, played by Ryan Reynolds, to reunite abandoned imaginary friends with their owners. The film explores themes of friendship and imagination through a mix of animation and live-action. Damon previously worked with Blunt in The Adjustment Bureau in 2011 and Oppenheimer. The couple was spotted looking stylish and coordinated at the New York premiere of IF, showcasing their enduring love and strong partnership after 18 years of marriage.
At the Met Gala, Damon joked about taking only five minutes to put together his look, as he and Barroso got ready at the Mark Hotel after spending the day preparing. The couple has a strong bond, as demonstrated by their joint appearance at high-profile events and their commitment to working on their relationship through therapy. Damon admitted to negotiating his return to acting during therapy sessions, highlighting the importance of communication and compromise in their marriage. Their chic date night look at the IF premiere was a testament to their enduring love and support for each other both personally and professionally. Overall, Damon and Barroso continue to shine both on and off the screen, captivating audiences with their charm and style.
