Matt Damon Brings His Wife Luciana and Their Rarely Seen Daughters to 'The Rip' NYC Premiere, Igniting Online Buzz — Photos

A show-stealing outfit, a red carpet reunion, and a swirl of online buzz have put the 56-year-old Hollywood star's family firmly back in the spotlight.

At the New York premiere of "The Rip," Matt Damon appeared with his wife Luciana Barroso and their daughters for a rare full-family red carpet moment.

While their coordinated looks drew plenty of attention, one outfit in particular sparked a flurry of online reactions and debate.

How Stunning Did They Look?

Matt and Luciana brought effortless style to the red carpet at the premiere of Netflix's "The Rip" on January 13, 2026. Matt kept it classic in an all-dark look, wearing a dark blue tailored suit over a black crew-neck T-shirt, finished with a round white pin on his lapel.

At the event, Matt and his wife, Luciana, shared a warm, smiling moment for the cameras before heading inside Alice Tully Hall, where they joined the cast and crew for group photos.

Also spotted on the red carpet were Tim Weyers, Alison Winter, Clementine Callaway, GiGi Fouquet, Philip Goore, and Dillon West.

Matt was reunited with longtime friend and collaborator Ben Affleck, drawing attention from both fans and photographers. Fellow attendees included Karen Willaman, Chay Carter, Kevin Halloran, Sasha Veneziano, and Amy Baer.

Among the stylish attendees, it was Luciana who stole the show in a vibrant red strapless gown, complete with cascading ruffle layers and daring thigh-high slits. It was a bold, eye-catching look that had fans buzzing.

Luciana completed her look with sheer black stockings and pointed black heels, adding a polished touch. Her long, wavy hair was styled in loose, voluminous curls, parted down the middle for a soft, elegant finish.

Moments later, the photos were everywhere, and the internet had something to say. On Instagram, one admirer gushed, "Wow.. natural beauty! ❤️" Another wrote, "The Mom looks like their sister. I had to look closely 🔥🙌."

Over on Facebook, the praise kept coming. "His wife has not aged one bit!" one supporter declared, echoing the reaction of many more.

Damon Daughters Dazzle

At the star-studded premiere, Matt and Luciana were joined by their daughters Isabella, Gia, and Stella, each showing off her own unique take on red carpet style.

Standing next to her mom, Isabella wore a sleeveless color-block dress featuring a textured silver knit upper and a sleek black lower half, finished with layered silver jewelry.

Just beside her dad, Stella turned heads in a strapless black dress with tiny white polka dots. She added long black gloves for a playful vintage twist and styled her hair in soft curls.

Meanwhile, Gia went with a dark blue satin slip dress featuring thin straps and a relaxed fit. She added delicate gold jewelry and wore her hair sleek and straight with a center part.

The sisters' half-sibling, Alexia Barroso, was also seen at the after-party. She wore a black mini dress with a sheer neckline and tiered ruffle skirt, paired with black patterned tights and a pendant necklace. Her long dark hair was styled in soft waves, completing the chic, understated look.

Together, the sisters brought a blend of classic elegance and modern edge to the red carpet, creating a standout family fashion moment.

Online, the reaction was instant. Someone else observed, "None of them have his gorgeous blue eyes????" Another made a similar remark, noting the absence of his eye color in his children.

"Each a replica of mom," a different viewer stated, while another declared, "wow jaw dropped! beautiful exotic daughters!" Another joked that Luciana looked more like a fourth daughter than a parent.

Netizens Divided Over Isabella's Look

While the Damon family appeared in coordinated red carpet looks, it was Isabella's outfit that stirred up the most conversation online.

The lower portion of the 19-year-old's dress hugged her frame and was finished with a bold, textured white hem that curved upward at the front, a sculptural detail that instantly stood out in photos.

The unique design gave the illusion of an inverted layer, a detail that left some social media users impressed and others puzzled.

Netizens were quick to weigh in. One pointed out, "Obsessed with the fit on the left!!" while another chimed in, "Girl on left dress looks upside down 😂😂😂."

The hemline continued to raise eyebrows. "what is that one dress is is [sic] it upside down? It's meant to be upside down." one person asked. Another simply added, "the [sic] black and white dress is confusing?"

The look may have sparked debate, but one thing's clear: Isabella made a lasting impression.

Similar to Matt's recent family outing, Mark Wahlberg made headlines last year when he brought his entire family to a film premiere in New York.

As previously reported, Mark brought his wife, Rhea Durham, and their four children to the red carpet premiere of his new action thriller "Play Dirty" in New York City on September 25, 2025. The family turned heads and sparked a flurry of emotional and, at times, brutally honest fan reactions.

A Glamorous and Unexpected Family Affair

Known for fiercely guarding their family's privacy, Mark and Rhea shocked fans by showing up with all four of their kids — Ella, 22, Michael, 19, Brendan, 17, and Grace, 15 — for the event at the SVA Theatre.

It marked a rare public moment for a family that usually stays away from the limelight. Rhea and daughter Grace looked elegantly coordinated in black dresses, while eldest daughter Ella stunned in a flowing fuchsia pink silk gown that turned heads.

The boys kept things laid-back in casual attire, reflecting their father's cool, understated look in a sweater, khakis, and crisp white sneakers. Mark beamed proudly as he posed for photos, exchanged laughs with fans, and soaked up the attention, with his entire family at his side.

Fans Share Mixed Reactions to Mark's Family Photo

When photos of Mark and his family on the red carpet surfaced online, some fans praised the group while others raised questions.

One person couldn't help but question the family resemblance, "Are the kids adopted? None looks like father or mother." Another one echoed the sentiment, "Did both of their genes just take a back seat when it came to their kids?"

Someone else expressed surprise more bluntly, "Too bad none of them look like him 🤷🏻 ♀️." Of course, not every reaction focused on appearances. One admirer gushed, "Beautiful family ❤️🙌 ❤️." Others shared similar warmth, enthusing, "Wow, the family is so lovely 😍😍."

One fan tagged Mark directly, penning, "Beautiful family @markwahlberg! God bless brother!" Another person left a straightforward compliment, "Wow, beautiful family photo, you and your wife and kids, Mark." And rounding it out, a fan offered enthusiastic praise, "Wow his's family's are so beautiful amazing!!!👍😊😉 [sic]."

Mark Opens Up About Work and Family Dynamics

Mark gave a brief but revealing interview on the red carpet, noting that it had been a while since all of his children were together in the same place. "I'm so excited that all of my kids [are here], because my daughter's been away at school, everybody's kind of doing their own thing at this age," he gushed.

The actor also described the demanding nature of filming in Australia, pointing out the long hours and the challenge of being far from home. During the shoot, however, Rhea Durham and their four children joined him on location, which made the experience more meaningful.

"I think that's the biggest sacrifice, but you know, for me, the action stuff is easy. I've kind of, I've done it all. I'm not worried about doing my own stunts. I'm more worried about bringing this character to life," said Mark.

When asked if his kids were aware of his long-running Hollywood career, the movie star admitted, "Yeah, they think it's all pretty silly."
