British heartthrob Joe Alwyn has turned heads at the 2024 Venice Film Festival, where he premiered his latest film, 'The Brutalist.' The 33-year-old actor, donning a sharp black Gucci suit, showcased his continued rise in Hollywood, this time sharing the screen with Adrien Brody and Felicity Jones in a three-hour post-war drama.

Directed by Brady Corbet, 'The Brutalist' tells the compelling story of Hungarian Jewish architect László Tót, portrayed by Brody, who survives the Holocaust and embarks on a journey to America to rebuild his life. The film's world premiere on August 31 has positioned it as one of the 21 contenders for the prestigious Golden Lion Award at the festival.

Alwyn's Venice debut follows his appearance in 'Kinds of Kindness,' a project that reunited him with Emma Stone and director Yorgos Lanthimos, following their successful collaboration in the Oscar-winning 'The Favourite.' The actor's sartorial choices, as always, did not go unnoticed, with his Gucci ensemble becoming a talking point of the event.

In a candid interview with 'The Sunday Times Style' months ago, Alwyn opened up about his breakup with pop sensation Taylor Swift, confirming their mutual decision to keep their relationship out of the public eye. "It was never something to commodify, and I see no reason to change that now," he stated, reflecting on their private romance.

The actor's presence in Venice has sparked interest in his personal life, yet Alwyn remains tight-lipped about any new romantic interests. "Given the level of noise and scrutiny about my past relationship, why I wouldn't want to just open the door to things like that right now," he shared, choosing to focus on his professional achievements.

As 'The Brutalist' awaits its release date, fans and critics are eager to see Alwyn's next act on the big screen. Meanwhile, his previous film, 'Kinds of Kindness,' is available for digital viewing and will hit Blu-ray and DVD on October 8. With his career on an upward trajectory, Joe Alwyn is proving that he's more than just a name in the headlines; he's a talented actor with a bright future in the film industry.
