Lizzy Caplan and Joshua Jackson turned up the heat Monday night when they both wore crimson looks at the star-studded Fatal Attraction premiere in Los Angeles.
Caplan, 40, exuded sex appeal in her sleek red satin dress, while 44-year-old Jackson – who recently declared that “an affair can be forgiven” – looked smart in a tailored suit and white undershirt.
The couple’s big night celebrated their smoldering television remake of the iconic 1987 thriller starring Glenn Close and Michael Douglas in career-defining roles.
Caplan is about to tear up the screen as unhinged mistress Alex Forrest, who ends up terrorizing Jackson’s married man and his family after their weekend fling comes to an end.
The first three episodes will air on Paramount+ on April 30, before a weekly release schedule follows.

Caplan and Jackson were joined by a handful of other stars who turned out to support the highly anticipated series.
Sarah Paulson, 48, attended in a chic black suit as she posed alongside her good friend Amanda Peet, 51.
Peet plays the wife of Jackson’s character on the show, and she arrived in a gorgeous black dress with a plunging neckline.
Actresses Carla Gallo and Elizabeth Reaser also appeared in classic black looks while Alyssa Jirrels shone in a shimmering silver dress.
Fatal Attraction received critical acclaim and became a box office hit in 1987, grossing $320.1 million worldwide.
The film was nominated for six Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Director and Best Actress for Close.
Speaking to Entertainment Weekly in June, Joshua claimed the new series would be “an even more emotional version of the story” that has been updated to this day.
“That allows us to understand some of the sexual politics of the [movie]and because we have eight hours to tell the story, it also allows us to dive much deeper into that Glenn Close character and… paint a richer picture of how that woman became [who she is]and why she did the things she did,” he explained.

Jackson added, “That movie is basically every man’s worst nightmare coming to life, and our show is a nightmare.” It’s a nightmare for men.’
The original movie sparked a huge debate over sexual politics and led to one of the most iconic scenes in cinema when Alex cooked the family rabbit in a fit of psychotic rage.
The new series will reportedly have some major twists and updates for fans of the movie.
And as Jackson said, an important element the show will delve into is Alex’s mental health, as the original movie did little to explore her descent into bunny-boiling madness.
