Watch: Greta Gerwig and Noah Baumbach Make Rare Red Carpet Appearance at Venice Film Festival

Greta Gerwig and Noah Baumbach have a great day every day—but this time we get to look at them. 

Indeed, the Barbie collaborators—and notoriously private couple—made a rare red carpet appearance at the premiere of Jay Kelly at the Venice Film Festival Aug. 28, two years after they tied the knot. 

Greta, who costars in the upcoming George Clooney film that her husband directed and co-wrote, wore a grand one-shoulder black gown with a floral pattern and topped with a tulle train. The Barbie director wore her short blonde bob in a slicked back style and topped off the look with a bold silver chain necklace and ring by Pomellato with black stilettos. 

As for her Ken, he opted for a classic tuxedo. The couple—who share sons Harold, 6, and another 2-year-old whose name has not been made public—engaged subtly sweet moments during their photo ops on the carpet, making each other laugh and posing hand-in-hand.

While Greta and Noah do not put their romance on display often, they have been together since the early 2010s when they met on the set of Greenberg, and collaborate on nearly every film project they pursue since Frances Ha in 2013. 

Ahead of the release of his White Noise film in 2022, Noah emphasized just how important the couple’s ongoing professional and personal relationship is to his creative process. 

“What I didn’t know is that Greta was this incredible writer,” Noah recalled at the BFI London Film Festival at the time. “I mean, I had a feeling she’d be a great collaborator, but that writing really was kind of her thing when she was in college, and so I really lucked out. It was amazing.”

And while Greta has pursued projects on her own—including the upcoming Narnia film—she also has no closer collaborator than her husband. 

“He’s also this incredibly important collaborator and influence on me,” she told Vogue in 2019, shortly after welcoming Harold. “The most important.”

Greta assured that when not on set, her free time is mostly, “just hanging out with Noah and the baby, and writing, and making each other laugh.”
