Ella Beatty, Daughter of Annette Bening and Warren Beatty, Is a Red Carpet Beauty at the Tony Awards
Ella Beatty, the daughter of legendary actors Warren Beatty and Annette Bening, is an absolute beauty on the red carpet at the Tony Awards.
The rising theater star, 26, attended the 79th Annual Tony Awards at Radio City Music Hall on Sunday in New York City, and took over the red carpet with a classic look in a cream-colored dress with a hip cut out. Boasting the classic beauty of her mother, we're guessing we'll see Beatty on plenty of red carpets in the future.
Ella Beatty is Close With Sarah Paulson
On the Tony Awards red carpet, Beatty was frequently spotted alongside acclaimed actress Sarah Paulson. Walking hand-in-hand, the duo posed for several photos for the cameras.
This isn't the first time the duo has hung out. Back in March, Beatty served as the most stunning sidekick during Paris Fashion Week as she hung out with Paulson. The duo hit up the Celine Fall/Winter 2026-2027 show, and while Paulson looked ultra glam in a black suit, it was Beatty in the background that caught our eye. With long, luscious hair and the good looks of her legendary film star parents, there's no doubt that Beatty will be a star on her own soon. She looked casual and cool in wide-leg jeans, loafers, and a red sweater, putting a unique spin on a classic cool outfit.
What Does Ella Beatty Star In?
A Juilliard-trained actress, Beatty made waves starring alongside Hugh Jackman in Sexual Misconduct of the Middle Classes at Audible's Minetta Lane Theatre. In the play, Beatty's character is a college student who becomes involved with her older, successful professor, played by Jackman.
Despite the world knowing him as a megastar, Beatty previously said she didn't feel the least bit starstruck by Jackman.
"There is nobody less movie starry in the world than Hugh Jackman," Beatty said recently in a piece in Interview. "He's the most generous, loving, open, kind, hardworking person. He's done so much musical theater, and you can see that in the way that he shows up to work. Nobody works harder than musical theater performers-they're such athletes. You can see that in his sensibility around learning lines. So I was intimidated, but when we sat down to do the first reading of the play in the fall, it was so animated immediately that it became about the play very quickly."
What's Next for Ella Beatty?
Beatty has a big role in the works. She's set to play Lizzie Borden, who was tried and acquitted of the 1892 axe murders of her father and stepmother in Fall River, MA, in the fourth installment of Ryan Murphy and Ian Brennan's Monster true-crime franchise for Netflix, Deadline reported last year.
