Mel Gibson, 68, dresses very casually for his dinner date with girlfriend Rosalind Ross, 34, at upscale Nobu in Malibu

As an ardent fan, I can’t help but be captivated by the fascinating journey of Mel Gibson, a man whose talent and tumultuous life have made him a cinematic icon. From his humble beginnings to his meteoric rise as a Hollywood heavyweight, Mel has proven time and again that he is not just an actor, but a true artist.

Mel Gibson enjoyed a night out with his family at Malibu’s sushi hot spot Nobu. 

In a casual yet vibrant outfit reminiscent of a day at the beach – a pair of blue and white shorts, along with a crisp white shirt – the 68-year-old actor from Lethal Weapon appeared remarkably refreshed.

The former action star wore black Crocs and had his sunglasses tucked into his shirt.

In a playful moment, the image of Mad Max seemed to express delight at a remark from one of his kin, with his face frozen mid-laughter, appearing slightly amusing.

Gibson was accompanied by his girlfriend, screenwriter Rosalind Ross, 34. 

Since 2014, the pair have been together; at that time, Rosalind was only 23 years old, while Gibson was already 58. They are proud parents of a 7-year-old boy named Lars.

Apart from Lucia, who’s 14 and shares the same mother, Oksana Grigoriev, Gibson also has other children: Hannah, aged 43; sons Edward, Christian, William, Louis, Milo, and Thomas, who are respectively 42, 42, 38, 35, 33, and 25. These children were born from his previous marriage to Robyn Moore.

In a notable gap, the two form a partnership where Rosalind, not older than several of Gibson’s offspring, is 34 years junior to their partner.

The lovebirds reportedly met when she wrote a screenplay for his production company.

The outing comes as an old interview from 1999 resurfaced in which the two-time Academy Award winner for Braveheart revealed which actor he thinks is the ‘Antichrist.’ 

The interview took place in director Mike Figgis’ 1999 documentary Hollywood Conversations.

They spoke about what it is like working with actor Christopher Walken, 80. Both men admitted they were both a bit afraid of him when they met. 

Figgis said Walken flew in to read for a part with him that didn’t go well. 

Instead, Gibson stated that he didn’t require a plane, correct? Following this remark, he shared an anecdote about encountering Robert De Niro.

Gibson recalled encountering Walken at a rooftop gathering. 

As I stood there amidst the bustling sea of people, I felt an eerie presence encroach upon me. It was as if time itself had slowed down, for there, gliding sideways through the crowd, clad in a sinister black ensemble, was he – the enigma I’ve longed to see. His movement, reminiscent of those chilling old vampire films where they don’t walk, but rather, glide, sent a shiver down my spine.

Speaking from experience, after he departed, I found myself yearning for the same exit, as our professional partnership no longer felt harmonious and had begun to instill a sense of unease. In a moment of reflection, Gibson reminisced, glancing aside at a structure nearby where an unusual sequence of numbers caught his eye – three red sixes.

Gibson laughed and said, ‘I thought, “Oh no. Chris Walken is the antichrist!”‘

Indeed, Gibson’s jest was apparent, yet it was evident that both men harbored admiration and a tinge of apprehension towards the actor from The Outlaws.
