Austin Butler and Kerry Condon donned classy outfits while walking the red carpet at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival on Wednesday. 

The 31-year-old Elvis star wore a navy blue suit over a white button-down shirt. He stood on shiny black shoes, and his dark brown hair sat messily atop his head. 

He stuffed his hands in his pockets, exuding his usual casual-cool demeanor. 

Condon, 40, donned a form-fitting black trench coat with buttons running down the front. Her strawberry blonde hair fell in front of her right shoulder and was also brushed behind her left ear. 

She painted her lips bright red, and large diamond stud earrings added to her ensemble.

The Santa Barbara International Film Festival is an annual event honoring some of the best films from the previous year. 

Condon and Butler were both honored with Virtuosos Awards, an award given to ‘up-and-coming’ actors, according to the festival’s website

Butler received the honor for his part in the music biopic Elvis and Condon for her work in the comedy-drama The Banshees of Inisherin. 

Stephanie Hsu (Everything Everywhere All at Once), Ke Huy Quan (Everything Everywhere All at Once), Danielle Deadwyler (Till), Nina Hoss (Tár), Jeremy Pope (The Inspection) and Jeremy Strong (Armageddon Time) were also given the honor.

Butler made headlines both for winning his first Golden Globe but also for seemingly keeping the Elvis accent he used for the film during his speech. Angela Bassett offered some advice to the star after the speech. 

The actor was asked about the accent immediately in the press room after his big Golden Globe win, but he claimed, ‘I don’t think I sound like him still, but I guess I haven’t noticed ’cause I hear it a lot.’ 

Bassett – who was first nominated for an Oscar for playing Tina Turner in the 1993 film What’s Love Got to Do With It – spoke with The New Yorker, and was asked about Butler’s situation.

When asked if the character still ‘took over’ her after filming, she admitted, ‘It absolutely did.’ 

‘Tina’s laugh and the way she spoke took over,’ Bassett admitted, but said it didn’t last as long as Butler.

‘It took over, not as long as Elvis—maybe about four months after. You so lived and breathed and began to see life through their perspective,’ Bassett admitted.
