Charlize Theron had plenty to celebrate at the New York premiere of The Odyssey, but the Oscar winner made it clear the night’s biggest highlight wasn’t the film’s star-studded cast or the red carpet—it was having her two daughters by her side.
The actress attended the premiere alongside co-stars including Anne Hathaway, although daughters Jackson and August skipped the photographers on the red carpet. Instead, the trio were spotted together earlier in the day walking through the streets of Manhattan before the evening’s celebrations.

Theron wore a striking white Dior mini dress for the premiere, while August opted for a black dress teamed with white knee-high socks and Doc Martens boots, finishing the look with braided hair gathered into a high bun. Jackson walked just behind her mother and younger sister as they made their way through the city.
While the family largely kept out of the spotlight during the event itself, Theron later shared a glimpse of the evening on social media, revealing what mattered most to her. Posting about the premiere, she described having Jackson and August with her as the “best part” of the night.
“Best part of the night. Having my babies with me,” the actress wrote, giving fans a rare insight into her life away from Hollywood.
Theron has long kept her family life private, making public appearances with her daughters an uncommon sight. Their appearance in New York offered a rare glimpse of the close bond the actress shares with Jackson and August as she celebrated the release of one of the year’s most anticipated films.
