Hollywood star Robin Wright made a breathtaking appearance on the red carpet at the 83rd Annual Golden Globe Awards, held at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills this Sunday. The actress, who turns 60 in April, looked remarkably youthful as she arrived for the star-studded ceremony, which was hosted by comedian Nikki Glaser.
A Night of Celebration and Style
Wright's attendance was particularly significant as she raked in a nomination for Best Actress in a Limited Series, Anthology Series or Motion Picture Made for TV. This accolade is for her leading performance in the psychological thriller series The Girlfriend, which premiered on Amazon Prime in September 2025. The nomination marks the fifth Golden Globe nod of her illustrious career; she previously won the award for her role in House of Cards.
For the glamorous occasion, the Princess Bride icon chose a sophisticated all-black ensemble. She wore a figure-hugging black velvet gown featuring sheer fabric that draped around her shoulders and extended to a sultry, backless design. Completing the look were open-toed black heels and a matching black crocodile-embossed clutch bag.
Her short blonde hair was styled in soft waves, parted to the side, and ended just above her shoulders. Her makeup enhanced her radiant glow, featuring mascara-lashed eyes, a light shadow, warm blush, and a nude satin lip tint.
Reflections on Ageing and a New Chapter in the UK
In a recent interview with AARP The Magazine, Wright opened up about approaching her sixth decade. 'I don't see it as the end of an era,' she stated. 'It's just another number that's a little bit bigger.' She explained that her significant perspective shift happened at age 50, when she decided to live life on her own terms.
The actress has also embarked on a major life change, relocating to the United Kingdom last year with her boyfriend, architect Henry Smith. She candidly told The Sunday Times about her reasons for leaving the United States, remarking, 'America is a s*** show.' In contrast, she gushed about her new home, saying, 'There's a freedom of self here. People are so kind. They're living.' She contrasted this with what she perceives as the rushed, competitive pace of American life.
Behind the Scenes of 'The Girlfriend'
The Girlfriend has been a monumental project for Wright, who not only starred as the lead character Laura but also directed three episodes and served as an executive producer. The series, which also stars Olivia Cooke, Laurie Davidson, and Waleed Zuaiter, follows a mother whose idyllic life unravels when she becomes suspicious of her son's new girlfriend.
Reflecting on the four-year grind of making the series during a THR Presents panel, Wright admitted, 'I've never experienced this... I'm going to take some time off for a minute. It was so much fun to make.' She also praised her collaborative relationship with co-star Olivia Cooke, known for House of the Dragon, highlighting the close, communicative dynamic they shared on set.
The series itself is also in the awards spotlight, having secured a nomination for Best Limited Series, Anthology Series, or Television Film.
Wright's night out at the Globes follows a recent mother-daughter appearance with her daughter, Dylan Penn, at a Stella McCartney show in Paris, underscoring a period of both professional acclaim and personal fulfilment for the acclaimed actress.
