Thandie Newton hits red carpet with lookalike daughter Nico, 14, for Dumbo premiere

Actress Thandie Newton joined her daughter Nico on the red carpet on Thursday for the premiere of Disney's Dumbo.

The 14-year-old, who is starring in the film, looked virtually identical to her mother, 46, as they posed together for pictures at London's Curzon in Mayfair.

Both sports elegant gowns fo the occasion, with Westworld star Thandie opting for a stylish grey sequin number with a faux fur bust.

Styling her brunette locks in bold bouncy ringlets, the proud mother completed her look with a pair of silver open toe heels and dangling earrings.

Meanwhile, Nico opted for a striking pale pink dress with an orange overlay, curling her locks to match her mother's waves, and sweeping them into a loose ponytail.

Thandie put one protective arm around her teenage daughter as they posed for photographs, smiling proudly at her before heading inside to watch the film.

The actress' famous husband Ol Parker was also in attendance, as he joined his family for a picture on the red carpet.

Ol, who is an actor and director himself, and even worked on Mama Mia! Here We Go Again, wore a smart black suit and a grey tie as he joined his family on the red carpet.

Alongside Nico, Thandie and Ol also share daughter Ripley, 18, and son Booker, five.

Speaking about Nico's film career, the actress said at the Golden Globes: “She’s definitely taking her own path but yeah, she’s acting.

“She was 12 when she made Dumbo, the live-action movie that’s been beautifully directed by Tim Burton. She’s now 14 — the movie has obviously taken a couple of years, because of CGI and so on.”

Gushing about the film ahead of its official release, she added: “It’s absolutely breathtaking. I’m so thrilled for her.”
