Proving he gets better with age, the Irish actor looked exquisite in a blue suede bomber jacket over a denim shirt, finishing the look with a polka-dot neckerchief. 

Pierce, who is in the Big Apple filming for upcoming thriller False Positive, looked every inch the silver fox as he mingled.

Jake, 38, looked dapper in a long blue overcoat and vibrant patterned shirt, wearing his brunette locks swept back.

The Donnie Darko star sported subtle stubble and cut a typically handsome figure as he attended the event.

Pierce is currently in the midst of filming for his upcoming thriller movie.

Known for playing James Bond, Pierce starred in films Golden Eye, Tomorrow Never Dies, The World Is Not Enough and Die Another Day.

With Daniel Craig set to commence filming on the as-yet unnamed Bond 25 film, Pierce recently spoke about the latest generation of the franchise.

The actor said Daniel's brooding portrayal had to be more serious because the franchise was forced to reinvent the character as 'more muscular' and solemn.

However, in the process, Pierce claimed the series has lost its sense of humour while he spoke about the developments of the franchise over the years.

He told The Rake magazine: 'There had to be humour, I felt. It is different now. They had strong competition and they haven't reinvented it but given it a much more muscular, dynamic twist.

'When I played him you have to let the audience in that this is a fantastic joke – this man, jumping off a motorcycle and catching up a plane, is completely preposterous. But for me you had to let them in.

'That's what I was brought up with. Sean (Connery) did it, Roger (Moore) did it par excellence.'

Final outing: Meanwhile, the cast of the hotly-anticipated James Bond 25, due for release in 2020, will be announced on Thursday from an 'iconic 007 location'
