Spotted looking absolutely adorable.
Last night, Naomi Watts, 56, twinned with her four-legged “The Friend” co-star, Bing, on the red carpet at the forthcoming film’s premiere in New York City.
Perfectly matching the Great Dane, Watts wore a white dress from Jacquemus’ spring 2025 collection, festooned with black fuzzy spots on the voluminous A-line skirt.
The British actress accessorized the frock with white pointy slingback kitten heels, completing the look with her signature blond bob and deep rose-colored lipstick.
It seems Watts forged a close bond with her furry friend on set, as she had nothing but sweet things to say about working with the canine while chatting with People on the red carpet.
“Every day he brought something special and surprised us every step of the way,” she told the outlet. “The old saying is don’t work with animals or children, more time, more money, but he did everything that was required from the page and then some.”
Based on Sigrid Nunez’s 2018 novel, the film follows Iris (played by Watts), a struggling author and single woman in New York who takes her mentor and best friend Walter’s (portrayed by Bill Murray) Great Dane, Apollo, after his death.
Bing wasn’t the only special guest on the red carpet last evening — Watts’ husband Billy Crudup and her 16-year-old child, Kai Schreiber, joined her for the movie premiere, too.
The teenager wore a look straight from Valentino’s spring 2025 runway, which included a cropped polka-dot blazer, hot pink bustier top and a black ruffled skirt ($3,500).
Kai styled the playful ensemble with the luxury label’s black and red pumps ($1,290), coordinating lace tights and an ivory and black bag ($2,850).
Stepping into the spotlight, the teen made a runway debut at the Valentino fall 2025 show — clad in a leopard print minidress — during Paris Fashion Week earlier this month.
A spy at the red carpet premiere told Page Six that Watts instructed Schreiber to smile for the cameras rather than stick with the model-esque gaze.
“The Friend” hits New York theaters on March 28 and nationwide on April 4.
