Mara, went public with her relationship with her Fantastic Four costar Jamie Bell at the end of last month, added pretty black sandals and a glittery black clutch to her stylish look.

In the film, which is based on a true story, Mara plays Ashley Smith, who was taken hostage for even hours by Brian Nichols after he killed four people while escaping from a courthouse.

Amazingly, meth addict Smith managed to convince him to set her free and turn her life around by reading Nichols Bible passages and sharing stories about her life and family.

The real-life Ashley Smith also attended the Captive screening, wearing a white and pink leopard print mini-dress and beige heels, and holding her friend Mara's hand.

The pair formed a friendship as Smith spent hours on set, with Mara even visiting her at home in a bid to get the details right.

'She and I became close,' Mara told The New York Daily News.

'I mean I would constantly text her questions as simple as, "What kind of music were you listening to at the time, and were your nails painted?"'
