Aaron Taylor-Johnson and his wife, Sam Taylor-Johnson, were seen holding hands after attending a red carpet date night together.

The couple attended the world premiere of the Amy Winehouse biopic at London’s Odeon Luxe Leicester Square on Monday, April 8. Aaron, 33, was dressed in a black leather jacket and pants, while Sam, 57, opted for a black midi dress. They were spotted holding hands at the afterparty as well.

Sam, known for directing Fifty Shades of Grey, took on the film Back to Black after other filmmakers tried to tell Amy Winehouse's story. The movie follows the journey of the late jazz singer from performing in North London to becoming a Grammy-winning artist with hits like "Rehab." The title of the film is a tribute to her acclaimed album of the same name.

Aaron, who married Sam in 2012, recently defended their age gap following a public outing on Monday. The couple, who met on the set of the 2009 John Lennon biopic directed by Sam, are more than 20 years apart in age.

Aaron shared in his cover story for Rolling Stone UK in April/May 2024 that while others were experiencing things in their twenties, he was already doing them at the young age of 13.
