Zoe Kravitz takes accidental swipe at Austin Butler right in front of him amid their sizzling romance rumors

by

In a casual, lighthearted manner, Zoe Kravitz made a subtle critique of the Sex and the City prequel, The Carrie Diaries, despite Austin Butler, one of its leading actors, being nearby.

Austin and Zoe have been actively marketing their latest film, titled “Caught Stealing,” and have sparked speculation about a romantic relationship due to their playful exchanges during promotional events – despite Zoe being noticed sharing a kiss with Harry Styles in recent times.

In their most recent visit, they participated in a joint session where they responded to queries, all the while connected to a lie detector test conducted by Vanity Fair.

In their conversation, Austin (aged 34) inquired from Zoe (aged 36), which of the two Sex and the City sequels – “And Just Like That…” or “The Carrie Diaries” – they considered to be more appealing.

Let it be, please. Everyone should halt this show.” When Austin inquired further, she emphasized her request more directly.

After casually discarding two images, Austin unveiled them as ‘photographs of me.’ In response, a flustered Zoe queried, “Oh dear! Are you part of that television program?

Austin mentioned that he appeared on The Carrie Diaries, portraying Sebastian, a romantic interest for the main character.

In a somewhat bashful manner, Zoe sincerely apologized, asserting that she wasn’t aware he had appeared in the show. Remarkably, the lie detector test confirmed the accuracy of her statement.

On this particular Tuesday, Austin and Zoe added to the speculation about their romantic involvement during a playful interchange at the New York debut of “Caught Stealing.

At the Regal Union Square, Austin found himself standing close enough to Zoe during the premiere to place his hand gently on her exposed midriff while they engaged in conversation, leaning towards her.

In a friendly gesture, I gently touched his arm and offered him a warm smile, my toned midriff adding an element of allure to my stylish attire.

She wore a long-sleeved mini top that was black, paired with a long, flowing skirt. Her hair was styled into relaxed, wavy locks.

Austin cut an elegant figure, dressed in a sleek black leather ensemble – a jacket and trousers that matched, accessorized with stylish sunglasses.

For quite a while now, there’s been plenty of talk about these two being romantically involved. Last week, they fueled the gossip even more by acting playfully at a bar in Paris. A source shared with the Daily Mail that they share an undeniable connection or ‘chemistry’.

According to the source, it’s more than just friendship between Austin and the other person, but it hasn’t developed into a full romantic relationship yet. Austin isn’t in the ‘friend zone’ either.

A few short days afterwards, Zoe was spotted walking hand-in-hand with Harry Styles in a romantic outing through Rome, as recorded on a fan’s video.

Austin and Zoe are both recently out of prominent relationships with Kaia Gerber and Channing Tatum, respectively, and a source disclosed to The Sun in April that they have been enjoying each other’s company.

The publication was informed that ‘Austin and Zoe’s connection seems just as strong off-camera as it does on-screen. They’ve managed to keep their relationship private, and they haven’t officially defined what they are yet.’

According to the source, they both show great respect towards their former partners and are simply taking it one step at a time.

In July, however, a source poured cold water on the dating claims when speaking to TMZ. 

In the comedy-crime movie directed by Darren Aronofsky, they team up with Liev Schreiber (a renowned Hollywood actor), Matt Smith (a previous Doctor Who star), Vincent D’Onofrio, Regina King, and Bad Bunny.

According to Deadline, the movie chronicles the story of Hank Thompson (Butler), a once successful baseball player who finds himself unexpectedly thrust into a thrilling struggle for life amidst the chaotic criminal underground of 1990s New York City.

In a new prominent part, Austin has landed the role following his performance in Dune: Part Two, the top-earning movie of 2024 so far. However, it’s important to note that he was previously apprehended for theft before this successful film career.

In a simpler, more conversational way, you could say: Since its release in March, the sequel to Dune brought in an impressive $700 million globally, featuring the stars Timothee Chalamet, Zendaya, and Florence Pugh.

Last year, the American actor received his inaugural Golden Globe award for Best Actor and an Oscar nomination in the same category, all thanks to his outstanding performance as the legendary music figure Elvis Presley in Baz Luhrmann’s critically-acclaimed 2022 musical biopic.

Elvis helped him attain top-tier celebrity status, around twenty years subsequent to his initial rise to fame in the early 2000s when he was already recognized as a child star on Nickelodeon.

Regarding Zoe, daughter of Lenny Kravitz, she unveiled her first directorial venture, “Blink Twice,” towards the end of August. This marked a shift for her, having spent numerous years acting on-screen.

She has acted in notable roles such as the HBO miniseries Big Little Lies, the recently-cancelled Hulu series High Fidelity, and the 2022 film The Batman alongside Robert Pattinson and Colin Farrell.

Caught Stealing will be released on August 29.
