The actress' hair looked a bold auburn shade, which is of stark contrast to the brunette hue she sported at the Vacation premiere last week.

Kate recently guest-starred on the NBC show Undateable as well as starring in Staten Island Summer, a US film which was released online to mixed reviews on Friday.

Her next film is the British-produced Everything Carries Me To You, starring alongside Downton Abbey actress Jessica Brown Findlay.

The movie, set in London, stars Jessica as a promising young ballet dancer, who risks her career when she falls for a notable American photographer. 

Kate's role in the film, which is directed by Emma Holly Jones and is in pre-production, is currently unknown.

She's also set to appear in a gay marriage drama titled Modern Love, according to Variety.com, which follows a group of friends and family as they attend the nuptials of two gay men.
