Matt Damon had a glitzy night out in New York City with his wife and daughters at the premiere of his new film.
The 53-year-old father of four attended the premiere for Apple TV+'s "The Instigators" Wednesday night with wife and executive producer Luciana Barroso, 48, and their four daughters: Alexia Barroso, Luciana's daughter from a prior marriage; Isabella, 18; Gia, 15; and Stella, 13. This marked a rare appearance by their four children.
Damon’s mom, Nancy Carlsson-Paige, also joined the family in several photos.
Though the Damons keep their family life private, the "Bourne" franchise star keeps his love for the women in his life front and center with their names tattooed on his arm.
Damon stars in the Doug Liman-directed heist film and is joined by fellow cast members Casey Affleck (who co-write the script), Hong Chau and Jack Harlow.

The film arrives in theaters Friday and lands on Apple TV+ on Aug. 9.
Matt Damon's daughters have attended a few of his movie premieres
The November 2019 premiere of "Ford v Ferrari" was the first time Damon brought the whole family to a red carpet for one of his films, the Oscar-winning actor told USA TODAY at the time.
"I had taken them to 'Mary Poppins Returns' and 'Beauty and the Beast' premieres. But this was a different level," he said. "This was one of Dad’s premieres."
Since then, Stella, Gia and Alexia made an appearance at the Paris premiere for "Oppenheimer" last summer.
Damon's daughters have had the opportunity to be involved in the A-lister's projects. In 2011's "We Bought a Zoo," Alexia Barroso is credited with the role of a zoo staff member.
Over the years, they have visited Damon on set for films such as 2016's "The Great Wall" and shared their feedback on his performances, including in 2021's "Stillwater."
"My oldest, my 23-year-old, saw it last night," Damon told USA TODAY in 2021, referring to stepdaughter Alexia Barroso. "She gave it a favorable review; she really liked it."

Sometimes, the Damon girls have not-so-great reactions to his work — like when Damon's youngest, Stella, took a nap during a screening of 2020 Oscar winner "Ford v Ferrari."
"It was a little past bedtime," Damon told USA TODAY in 2019. "She said to me, 'Dad, I fell asleep twice, but only for 10 seconds.' She said it was really exciting." He added, "I told her, 'It’s OK, when it comes out on iTunes we’ll get it for the missing parts."
