In a sea of black, Matt Damon's wife, Luciana Barroso, boldly stood out from the crowd in a red hot pantsuit as she attended the LA premiere of the new movie, Animals.

Luciana, a partner in Artists Equity, the independent, artist-led production studio co-founded by Matt and Ben Affleck in November 2022, was joined by her husband and Ben on the red carpet, with the mom-of-four giggling away as she posed between the best friends.

The producer paired the vibrant red Gabriela Hearst suit – which featured high rise pleated pants and a matching blazer with large lapels – with a chic cream camisole.

She wore her hair loose around her shoulders, and let her natural beauty shine through with minimal makeup, and accessorized with simple pearl drop earrings.

Luciana is known for her timeless red carpet fashion.

In August, the 50-year-old joined Matt as he promoted The Odyssey, wearing a series of stunning gowns including a sleek Prabal Gurung fishtail dress in royal blue in Korea.

Ben stars and directs in the new film, produced by Artists Equity, and one that looks set to be another top-tier thriller with serious awards potential.

Ben and Kerry Washington star as a Los Angeles-based political power couple drawn into a web of deception and forced to consider terrible choices when their son is kidnapped.

Ben and Matt have been best friends for decades; they won their first Oscar together in 1994 for Good Will Hunting and have worked on 17 films together including uncredited extra roles, cameos, and producing credits.

In 2003, Matt met Luciana when she was working in a Miami bar and Matt asked to hide behind the bar when fans began to recognize him. Luciana told him he could only stay if he helped out, so he started serving drinks and making cocktails – and the rest was history.

Matt and Luciana are parents to daughters Alexia, 27, whom Matt adopted after their December 2005 wedding, Isabella, 20, Gia, 17, and 15-year-old Stella.

Alexia has followed in his footsteps and is a cinematographer, having worked on Matt's films, including 2021's The Last Duel and 2024's The Instigators.

"She's done about 12 movies," Matt proudly told E! News recently. "[She's] worked on the camera team all over the world."

Isabella has been studying at New York University and it was recently confirmed that she had signed with top modeling agency IMG Models, becoming part of the new generation of models who are famous offspring: Naomi Watts and Liev Schreiber's daughter, Kai, Jude Law and Sadie Frost's daughter, Iris, and Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's eldest, Sunday Rose.

Matt has called Isabella a "fantastic" writer, suggesting she may also follow her parents into the entertainment industry, and once revealed that his daughter chooses to watch his films only if the reviews are less than favorable.
