Uma Thurman looks chic for the day in a black dress and cropped jacket after she looked stunning at the ‘Jeanne du Barry’ premiere in Cannes

She was the prom queen at the opening night of the Cannes Film Festival, where Johnny Depp’s new film Jeanne du Barry premiered.

And the next day, Uma Thurman proved she’s got a daytime glam touch when she arrived at the luxury five-star Hotel Martinez on Wednesday afternoon.

The 53-year-old actress looked stunning in a structured black dress with a cropped waist, which she paired with a chic cropped jacket.

The pulp fiction icon accessorized her look with a pair of rectangular sunglasses, a cosmetic bag and a pair of black velvet sandals.

Uma opted for minimal makeup and wore her light blonde tresses in soft waves.

The night before, Uma accompanied her son Levon Hawke to the Jeanne du Barry premiere during opening night of the Cannes Film Festival.

The Kill Bill actress looked incredible in an elegant blush dress with a fitted bodice and princess skirt.

Uma, who shares her son with ex-husband Ethan Hawke, 52, completed the stunning ensemble with a gothic choker and beaded bracelet for her elegant entrance to the paparazzi.

The movie star wore her blonde locks up in a chic updo and opted for a neutral palette of makeup.

Meanwhile, son Levon, who is also an actor and has been in films like ‘The Crowded Room’ and ‘The Thicket’, was thoroughly dapper in a sleek black tuxedo and bow tie as he stood proudly next to his mother.

It’s not the first time Levon, 21, has attended the festival with his mum as he was pictured on the red carpet back in 2017.

Levon has followed in his acting parents’ footsteps, as has his older sister Maya, 24, who has starred in the Netflix series Stranger Things as well as the recent film Do Revenge.

Uma married actor Ethan in 1998 after meeting on the set of the film Gattaca, separated in 2003 and divorced two years later.

This year’s festival promises a Cote d’Azur buffet of spectacle, scandal and cinema to be served over the next 12 days.

Against the background of labor unrest, the situation is stagnating. The protests, which have rocked France in recent months over changes to its pension system, are set to take place during the festival, albeit some distance from the festival’s main centre.

Meanwhile, an ongoing writers’ strike in Hollywood could have unpredictable repercussions for the festival on the French Riviera.

But with a festival lined with some highly-anticipated big-budget films, including James Mangold’s Indiana Jones and the Dial of the Destiny and Martin Scorsese’s Killers of the Flower Moon, the party is sure to continue .

Stars set to walk the Cannes red carpet over the next week and a half include Natalie Portman, Leonardo DiCaprio, Cate Blanchett, Sean Penn, Alicia Vikander, The Weeknd and Scarlett Johansson.
