This year, the Venice Film Festival was graced by numerous A-list celebrities flaunting their extravagant attire from well-known fashion labels. Amidst the glitz and glamour, Joaquin Phoenix, the acclaimed actor who revealed his impending fatherhood in February, was spotted in the city with his spouse and their new baby.
The celebrity family was captured by paparazzi upon their arrival at Venice Airport. The images vividly depict Joaquin Phoenix, renowned for his role in “Joker,” warmly engaging with fans, autographing, and creating a convivial ambiance. However, the focus shifted to his wife, actress Rooney Mara, who was cradling the infant. She carefully shielded the little one from the numerous camera flashes, concealing him under a billowy covering, adding an air of mystery to the moment.
The couple attended the Venice Film Festival not only as guests but also to promote their new film “Joker: Folie à Deux,” in which Phoenix takes on the lead role. In this project, he is joined on screen by Lady Gaga, who, as usual, caused a stir with her vibrant and provocative presence.
It’s important to mention that Rooney Mara and Joaquin Phoenix have a son who was born in August 2020. The boy is named River, in tribute to Phoenix’s brother, who tragically passed away due to a drug overdose in October 1993.
