It feels much longer than 40 Days and 40 Nights since we last saw Josh Hartnett on a red carpet.
The actor made several rare public appearances during the Filming Italy 2022 event in Santa Margherita di Pula, Italy, where he is serving as president of the jury for the prestigious film and TV festival.
On June 12, the 43-year-old hit the red carpet in a green and pink retro-inspired floral-print shirt, styled with black trousers and Louis Vuitton slides. The day before, he was joined by wife Tamsin Egerton, who he quietly wed in November 2021.
The outings were a rarity for Hartnett, who stepped away from the spotlight in the mid-2000s after his roles in blockbusters such as Pearl Harbor and Black Hawk Down.
"I know what it's like to be in that whole world," he told The Chronicle in 2013. "I think trying to stay at the top is a shortcut to unhappiness. I spent a bit of time really thinking about whether this was the right thing for me."
Most recently, Hartnett starred in Guy Ritchie's 2022 spy action comedy Operation Fortune: Ruse de Guerre alongside Jason Statham, Aubrey Plaza and Hugh Grant.
He is also set to appear in Christopher Nolan's upcoming film Oppenheimer alongside Cillian Murphy, Emily Blunt, Matt Damon, Robert Downey Jr., Florence Pugh and Rami Malek.
Josh previously opened about his new chapter in Hollywood and admitted that being a dad has shaped his definition of success.
"The thing I am most proud of is that I'm a father of three," he told Mr. Porter in January 2021. "I have a good relationship with my partner, a great family life and I'm still able to do good work."
He added, "As I've got older, the characters have become more interesting."
