Aaron Taylor-Johnson, 34, and Wife Sam, 57, Step Out with Her Eldest Daughters for the 'Kraven the Hunter' Premiere in NYC

The movie star and his wife had a rare night out at a Marvel superhero movie premiere in New York City on December 10, 2024.

Aaron Taylor-Johnson attended the "Kraven The Hunter" movie premiere alongside his wife, Sam Taylor-Johnson, and her daughters, Angelica and Jessie. Their presence generated online chatter from fans who pointed out how Aaron looked more like Sam's son or her daughters' sibling.

The "Bullet Train" actor and his wife got married in 2012. The couple are parents to Wylda, 13, and Romy, 12, who didn't accompany them to this glamorous event. However, Sam's daughters, Angelica and Jessie, from her previous marriage to Jay Jopling came along to support Aaron, who stars in "Kraven The Hunter."

The four were a sight to behold with Aaron, 34 sporting a black button-up shirt paired with black trousers and a burgundy velvet blazer. Meanwhile, Sam, 57, matched her husband's style in a sparkling burgundy sequined dress. As for her daughters, Angelica, 27, opted for a sharp full suit, and Jessie, 18, turned heads in a metallic gun-metal gown with a cowl neckline.

Fans couldn't help but notice the unique family dynamic, including age and mannerisms, between Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Sam, and her daughters, sparking a flood of reactions online. One fan sarcastically pointed out, "Awe how cute that he brought his mom, and sisters to his new movie."

Another individual followed suit, writing, "Aw didn't know there were 3 siblings all around the same ages! 🥰." One user also jokingly commented, "A mother and her 3 child [sic]." Others shared their confusion stirred by the age gap between the couple, "I thought that was his mom and sisters."

Similarly, another fan quipped, "Him standing right next to her daughters, really makes him look like her son!! (…) 😫😫." One Instagrammer playfully remarked, "He's literally like their older brother 😭😭😭." A more thoughtful commenter noted, "The fact that he's closer in age to his stepdaughters than his wife just makes this family dynamic incredibly weird."

Someone else agreed, "He's the same age as her daughters lmaoooo [sic]." More people found the age gap striking, with one user saying, "The 7 year age gap between him and his eldest stepdaughter makes things sooo much worse [sic]."

Another person echoed the sentiment, exclaiming, "He's closer in age to his eldest daughter like what." Some viewers were shocked by the visual resemblance, with one stating, "Wow his kids genuinely look his age this is crzy [sic]."

One fan couldn't resist jotting down details surrounding the couple's age, "The age gap between him and his stepdaughters is smaller than the age gap between him and his wife. He's 7 years older than his oldest stepdaughter and 15 years older than his other stepdaughter. He's 24 years younger than his actual wife who he met and started dating when he was barely 18 whilst she was 42."

A user felt like they were attending a school event, noting, "They look like siblings attending to the prom with their mom." Another person concurred, "It just looks like a mom and her three kids." The family's mannerisms caught the attention of some fans as well, with one remarking, "The body language from the one on the right makes it seem like those two are a couple."

Finally, one fan admitted, "If I didn't know any better I'd assume he was dating the woman on the right with the way he's leaning into her and the woman on his left was his mom then his sister on the end."

Aaron was excited to be at the film premiere with the support of his family. The actor stars as the lead character in "Kraven The Hunter," a film that delves into the complex and tumultuous relationship between Kraven and his ruthless father, Nikolai Kravinoff.

In the action film, the character, Kraven, sets on a dangerous quest for vengeance, pushing him to become the greatest hunter on Earth. However, as one of the most feared figures, he faces brutal consequences in his journey.

Speaking at the movie premiere, Aaron revealed the work he did in preparation for his role as Kraven. "You know, I'm no stranger to Marvel movies. I know the community. I know the fanbase. We want to be able to deliver that. So, I had to put on some muscle and um, I kind of look the part, and but more than that give this character real layer, and depth," he shared.

Aaron underwent six months of intense training to achieve a physique fitting for a fearless hunter. Working closely with a specialized trainer, he followed a strict workout and dietary plan, cutting out foods like pasta, pizza, and alcohol for two years. His dedication paid off, as his toned body and defined abs were prominently showcased in the film.

Furthermore, since the film tells an original story, Aaron explained that his challenge was to portray Kraven in a way that helped the audience connect with him and understand his motivations on his journey. He divulged, "That's our intention. We want to take you somewhere. Come see 'Kraven.' It's not going to disappoint; I promise you that guys."

Aside from his work, Aaron is a devoted husband and father. His journey with Sam began in 2008 while he was filming in London. During that time, he auditioned for "Nowhere Boy," a film about a young John Lennon, and landed the role.

The project not only marked a significant milestone in his career but also led to his life-changing meeting with Sam, the film's director. At the time, she was 41, and he was 18. A year later, Aaron proposed, and soon after, the couple welcomed their first daughter. When they tied the knot in 2012, they chose to take each other's last names.

Sam Taylor-Johnson was already an established figure in the art world before meeting Aaron. She was celebrated as one of the Young British Artists alongside Damien Hirst and Tracey Emin. When Sam and Aaron's relationship became public, their 23-year age gap stirred some controversy, with media outlets referring to the actor as Sam's "toyboy."

However, Aaron isn't perturbed by the speculation surrounding their relationship. For him, meeting Sam felt like destiny, an instinct he says he had long before their paths crossed. By the time he was just ten or eleven, Aaron had already envisioned the kind of life he wanted for himself.

"I was going to have a big family. I knew I was going to be a young father. I knew I was going to have many kids," he shared.

Additionally, Aaron bristles at the notion that his relationship with Sam thrives primarily because of their creative partnership. While he acknowledges the collaborative dynamic they share, having first met Sam as an actor and director, he insists that their bond is much deeper.

For Aaron, their love was never about professional synergy but rather a profound personal connection that transcended their work together.
