Zoe Saldana exudes glamour in a black and rose hued floor-length gown as she graces the red carpet at the Emilia Perez Cannes Film Festival premiere

Zoe Saldana cut a glamorous figure on Saturday as she graced Emilia Perez’s red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival.

The Avatar actress, 45, looked nothing short of sensational as she wore a black floor-length dress with a long train.

The stylish ensemble featured a bandeau neckline, a low back and a pink train with large bows at the waist and legs.

Zoe further completed the ensemble with a gold-colored choker necklace and a matching large bracelet.

To complete the chic look, Zoe styled her locks into a sleek bun and opted for a flawless makeup palette that enhanced her natural beauty.

The star – who plays overqualified lawyer Rita in the musical crime comedy – was joined on the red carpet by co-stars Selena Gomez, 31, and Édgar Ramírez, 47.

The leading lady of the new film looked chic as ever as she stepped out in a black dress with an elegant white neckline that wrapped around her shoulders.

Meanwhile, Edgar looked incredibly dapper in a white blazer as he posed up a storm on the red carpet.

The actor paired the blazer with a satin shirt and matching black pants.

Emilia Perez is a musical crime comedy written and directed by French film director Jacques Audiard, 72.

Spanish actress Karla Sofía Gascón stars in the film, which also stars Selena, Zoe and Édgar.

The film’s plot follows Rita, a talented lawyer, disillusioned by her firm’s focus on winning cases for every client, who is given an unexpected opportunity to escape.

Infamous cartel leader Manitas hires her for a seemingly bizarre task: to help him leave his criminal empire behind and fulfill a lifelong dream: transition and become the woman he’s always dreamed of.

Emilia Perez will be released theatrically in France on August 28.

Cannes is the world’s largest film festival, first conceived in 1939 as an alternative to the then fascist-influenced Venice Film Festival.

It has been held annually since 1946, except for 1948 and 1950, when it was canceled due to lack of funds.

The festival is known for its carefully selected program of films that achieved Oscar success or launched the careers of directors such as Quentin Tarantino.

Cannes’ top prize is the Palme d’Or, or Palme d’Or, whose previous winners include Taxi Driver, Apocalypse Now, Pulp Fiction, The Pianist and Parasite.

Jane Campion became the first female director to win the award in 1993 with The Piano, followed by a gap of almost three decades until Julia Ducournau received the award for Titane in 2021.

Last year, Justine Triet became only the third female director to receive the award with Anatomy of a Fall.

There is also an honorary Palme d’Or, awarded in recognition of notable bodies of work, including Harrison Ford, Jane Fonda and Clint Eastwood.

There are two honorees this year: George Lucas of “Star Wars” and “Indiana Jones,” and Japanese animation legend Studio Ghibli, the first group to receive the award.

Other awards include the Grand Prix, Jury Prize, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Screenplay and Best Short Film.
