Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick turned the world premiere of “MaXXXine” into a memorable family affair. The couple, who have been married for over three decades, attended the event at California’s TCL Chinese Theatre on June 24, accompanied by their children, Travis and Sosie Bacon. The family’s presence added a personal touch to the premiere of the highly anticipated horror film, which is the third installment in writer-director Ti West’s “X” franchise.
Kevin Bacon, 65, who stars in the film, made a striking appearance in a pale orange suit paired with a beige collared shirt, oversized sunglasses, and Aldo shoes. His wife, Kyra Sedgwick, 58, looked stunning in a black leather mini dress complemented by black sheer tights. Their son, Travis, 35, matched his mother’s edgy style with an all-black ensemble, while their daughter, Sosie, 32, opted for a printed oversized tee and black cowboy boots.
“MaXXXine” is set in the 1980s and follows the character Maxine, played by Mia Goth, as she navigates the treacherous path to becoming an actress in Hollywood. The film promises a mix of ambition and horror, with Maxine encountering a series of bloody challenges along the way. Goth, who has been a central figure in the “X” franchise, expressed her excitement about the film, stating, “It’s the best script of the three by far. It’s going to be the best movie of the three. It’s the biggest story of the three with the highest stakes, and Maxine has gone through so much at this point. So when we find her in this new world, she’s just a force to be reckoned with and she goes through some pretty wild adventures.”
The premiere was a star-studded event, with notable appearances from the film’s cast, including Elizabeth Debicki, Moses Sumney, Giancarlo Esposito, Halsey, and Lily Collins. The red carpet was a showcase of unique styles, with Halsey donning a gold Bronx and Banco dress, Mia Goth in a black number from Ludovic de Saint Sernin, and Lily Collins in Schiaparelli.
Kevin Bacon, who plays a private investigator in “MaXXXine,” stood out with his vibrant peach-colored suit, light beige button-down shirt, and brown suede boots. He completed his look with aviator sunglasses, adding a touch of classic Hollywood flair. Kyra Sedgwick, on the other hand, chose an edgy vinyl minidress with puff sleeves in a deep red shade from LaQuan Smith’s fall 2021 ready-to-wear collection, accessorized with Dena Kemp jewelry.
Sosie Bacon brought a playful yet stylish vibe to the event with her Rocky Horror Show sweater, short skirt, and cowboy boots. Travis Bacon, known for his punk-inspired style, wore a semi-sheer button-down with leather pants, maintaining his signature all-black look.
The family’s appearance at the premiere was a testament to their close-knit bond. In a recent interview with PEOPLE, Sedgwick shared insights into their family dynamics, particularly highlighting their son Travis. “Oh my God, that’s a good question. For sure. I mean, I think he’s hungry and striving, and I think we were hungry and striving around that time,” she said, reflecting on the similarities between their son and themselves.
Kevin Bacon also took to social media to celebrate his daughter Sosie’s 32nd birthday in March, sharing a humorous side-by-side video of them dancing to PREP’s 2022 cover of Harry Styles’ “As It Was.” “Happy birthday @sosiebacon. I’ll never stop dancing with ya, baby. ❤️,” he captioned the post, showcasing the playful and loving relationship they share.
The “MaXXXine” premiere was not just a celebration of the film but also a showcase of the Bacon-Sedgwick family’s strong bond and individual styles. The event highlighted the couple’s enduring relationship and their support for each other’s careers, as well as their children’s unique personalities and fashion choices.
“MaXXXine” is set to hit theaters on July 5, and fans of the “X” franchise are eagerly anticipating its release. The film promises to deliver a thrilling and intense experience, continuing the legacy of its predecessors, “X” and “Pearl.” With a talented cast and a gripping storyline, “MaXXXine” is poised to be a standout addition to the horror genre.
As the Bacon-Sedgwick family continues to make waves in Hollywood, their appearance at the “MaXXXine” premiere serves as a reminder of their lasting impact on the industry and their unwavering support for each other.
