Matt Damon's Wife and Daughters Steal the Show on Movie Premiere Red Carpet

It was a family affair

Matt Damon made his latest movie premiere a total family night out in New York City.

The 53-year-old actor hit the red carpet at Lincoln Center on Wednesday, July 31 for the debut of his Apple TV+ flick, The Instigators, and he brought the whole family along for the ride.

Damon kept it cool and casual in a khaki suit, white tee and matching kicks, while his wife, Luciana Barroso, and their four daughters stole the show. Luciana, 47, looked stunning in a white dress paired with black heels. Their daughters — Isabella, 16, Gia, 14, and Stella, 13 — were also all glammed up for the occasion. Alexia, 24, Barroso's daughter from a previous relationship who has been a stepdaughter to Damon since she was four-years-old, also wowed at the blockbuster event.

While chatting with Entertainment Tonight at the premiere, Damon got real about begin a parent and watching his kids grow up.

"It happens so fast," he said. "It happens kind of slowly and then really fast in a beautiful way."

The Instigators premiere wasn’t the first time the family turned out to support Damon. They also made a red carpet appearance back in March at the Regency Village Theatre in L.A. for another of his movies. Although, at that time, Alexia was not present because she was busy filming overseas.

Luciana Barroso first crossed paths with Matt Damon while he was shooting Stuck On You back in 2003. They tied the knot in December 2005.

Earlier this year, Damon was all smiles chatting with Seth Meyers about the antics of his daughter Isabella, who loves to give him a tough time.

"She's super clear about avoiding anything I'm in if she thinks it might actually be good,” he shared. "But if I get bad reviews on something… that's the one she's excited to watch."

Damon then cracked up as he recounted a funny moment when his daughter was chatting with friends about his film The Great Wall.

"She kept calling it 'The Wall,' and I finally had to correct her, saying, 'Isabella, that movie is called The Great Wall.' She shot back with, 'Dad, there's nothing great about that movie.'"
