Heavily pregnant actress Lashana Lynch impressed in her midnight blue ball gown at the “The Day of the Jackal” premiere.

British actress Lashana Lynch, 36, was the stunner on the red carpet at the “The Day of the Jackal” premiere on Tuesday at the Queen Elizabeth Hall in London. The heavily pregnant actress impressed in a strapless, midnight blue ball gown with a bodice that was adjusted to the circumference of her baby bump. A few days earlier she had just announced that she was pregnant.

Lashana paired the elegant robe with several jewel-encrusted earrings, while her short, worked hair had silver threads. She completed her eye-catching look with makeup that included bold, smoky eyeshadow and a touch of pink lipstick.

Accompanied by her husband and co-stars

She was accompanied on the red carpet by her husband Zackary Momoh, who looked stunning in a black blazer with a tied belt. Her co-star in the upcoming British drama series, Eddie Redmayne, 42, also looked his best in a silver gray suit. The Oscar winner wore a matching button-up underneath and completed his look with a silk tie and patent leather shoes.

Lashana first revealed her pregnancy last Thursday when she showed off her baby bump in a tight dress at the premiere of The Day of the Jackal in New York.

First female 007 agent

Lashana Lynch played the new 007 agent Nomi in “No Time to Die” (2021) alongside Daniel Craig, 56, as retired 007 agent James Bond. Lynch became the first female and first black 007 agent in the “James Bond” series.

The London native with Jamaican roots was last seen in the biopic “Bob Marley: One Love” (2024) as wife and later Bob Marley widow Rita Marley, 78. In “Captain Marvel” (2019) she played Maria “Photon” Rambeau and in “The Marvels” (2023) she had a cameo appearance as Rambeau.
