Samara Weaving, an Australian performer, attended the red carpet premiere of her new film The Valet in Hollywood.
In a Louis Vuitton gown, the former Home and Away star stunned alongside her co-star, Overboard actor Eugenio Derbez, at The Montalban Theatre.
Some of the cast members were also present, including Max Greenfield, Betsy Brandt, Marisol Nichols, Carmen Salinas, and Diany Rodriguez, as well as director Richard Wong.
She has roles in Ryan Murphy’s Hollywood and Nine Perfect Strangers with fellow Australian Nicole Kidman before becoming a Hollywood A-lister. From 2009 through 2013, Weaving portrayed Indi Walker on Home and Away.
Weaving’s casting in The Valet — an adaptation of the 2006 French film of the same name — was first announced in March of last year. The Valet tells the story of a movie star (Weaving) who hires her parking valet (Derbez) to double as her lover so that no one finds out about her affair with a married man.
On May 20, the film will be released worldwide on Disney Plus streaming.

Weaving told People earlier this month that she enjoyed being a part of the project.
“It was a delight working with this fantastic team on the set of The Valet and I feel very lucky to have been a part of this whimsical movie,” she said.
“Working with the likes of Eugenio, Max, Betsy and Carmen (Salinas) with our fearless leader Rich made the 3am calls very very worth it.”
Derbez said the feeling was mutual.
“I loved working with Samara! It would have been very easy for her role to be unlikeable — a rich, beautiful, famous actress — who can feel sympathy for her?” he said.
“But Samara brought so much warmth and humanity to the character that we end up really rooting for her and my character to connect . . . but how much will they connect? Well, you have to see the movie to find out!”
