Jennifer Connelly wears Louis Vuitton ski-coat dress to LA premiere of her Apple TV+ series Dark Matter… and reveals she’s ‘ready’ for Top Gun 3

Jennifer Connelly donned head-to-toe Louis Vuitton to attend the premiere of her new Apple TV+ series Dark Matter, which was held inside the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles on Monday.

The 53-year-old Oscar winner – who’s been a house ambassador for the French luxury house since 2015 – looked ready for the slopes wearing a white ski-coat, matching mini-skirt, clutch, and high-heeled booties from Louis Vuitton Women’s FW/24 collection.

Jennifer – who relies on stylist Leslie Fremar – showcased her worryingly slim thighs while clad in the sporty ensemble.

Hairstylist Renato Campora styled Connelly’s signature raven locks into a severe bun for the teal carpet festivities.

Make-up artist Kate Lee defined the Bad Behavior producer-star’s naturally bushy brows, applied a shimmery shadow on her gorgeous green eyes, and a pink shade on her lips.

Jennifer revealed she would ‘be there’ and ‘be ready’ to reprise her role as bar owner Penelope ‘Penny’ Benjamin opposite Tom Cruise in a potential third Top Gun film after the 2022 sequel scored rave reviews and $1.496B at the global box office.

‘We had such a great time shooting [Top Gun: Maverick]. It was fun!’ Connelly gushed to ET on Monday.

‘I haven’t seen any [script]. I had a casual chat with my friend, Joe Kosinski, who directed it, who I worked with twice now. I’m his biggest fan. I think he’s so great. [I talked to him] about the possibility of it, but I don’t know anything concrete.’

Joining the New York native at the Dark Matter premiere was her onscreen leading man, Joel Edgerton, who showcased substantial chest hair beneath his pin-stripe double-breasted suit.

With a few choice words, Jennifer managed to make the Australian 49-year-old break his composure and start laughing as they posed together.

Edgerton plays Chicago physicist Jason Dessen and Connelly plays his wife Daniela Vargas Dessen in Apple TV+’s nine-episode alternative reality thriller, which premieres May 8.

‘I read the script first and then subsequently, of course, read the [2016] novel. I referred back to it like a journal for my character,’ the Yale and Stanford grad explained.

‘We had Blake Crouch, who wrote the novel, as our showrunner. He wrote most of the scripts and he was there everyday and he was involved in every decision. The die-hard fans of the book can feel safe in knowing that it’s his vision.’
