Keri Russell displays her toned torso in a dramatic cut-out silk gown as she attends the Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker London premiere

Keri Russell stepped out in a dramatic silk gown with cut-out detail on Wednesday night as she attended the Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker London premiere.

The American actress, 43, looked radiant in the pearly green number, which flanked her lithe figure, yet teased her torso with its plunging design.

The ensemble featured a glistening, chunky neck detailing and dramatic sweeping sleeves, with a pleated skirt that started at her bare waist and cascaded down to the floor of the blue carpet.

She added silver strap heels to the look, only visible when she hauled up the heavy outfit to walk into the cinema.

Make-up was pale with wisps of bronzer added to her cheekbones and a smokiness added to her eyes.

She wore sparkling star earrings, in keeping with the intergalactic theme of the film franchise, and wore her chestnut tresses loosely around her shoulders.

Keri appears in the film as Zorri Bliss - a masked rogue.

Make an entrance like Kerri wearing Stephane Rolland

It was more dress wars than Star Wars at the UK premiere for the latest movie in London this week.

Whilst the flick’s main hero Daisy Ridley wore a custom Vivienne Westwood gown, Kerri Russell took to the blue shaded carpet in this gorgeous look from Stephane Rolland.

Taken from the AW19 collection by stylist Frank Fleming - who expertly teamed it with silver mules - it helped Kerri bring an ethereal vibe to the event.

The soft yet voluminous silhouette is crafted from a jade green satin muslin with a cutout panel on the bodice and a collared neck embellished with green amethysts.

Whilst we mere mortals can’t shop her Hollywood look, we can easily recreate it by shopping a dress from our roundup. We’ve got our eye on this dress by Asos Edition, but you could always splash the cash Maggie Marilyn Hewitt.

The Rise Of Skywalker is the last film in the nine-episode run of movies that first began in 1977 with Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope.

The film hopes to tie together the numerous loose ends that have been left unanswered, from the originals to Rian Johnson's The Last Jedi.

While the plot has to mostly be kept under wraps, it can be said that the film sees Emperor Palpatine return, with Rey (Daisy Ridley) and The Resistance trying to find him, while Supreme Leader Kylo Ren (Adam Driver) is also on the trail.

Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker is set to be released on December 19 in the U.K. and December 20 in the U.S.

The movie left critics divided on Wednesday, as they simultaneously described it as a 'fitting conclusion' and being 'somewhat soulless'.  

Empire's Helen O'Hara gave the film three stars, and claimed: 'For all the visual panache, pleasing cameos and interesting newcomers here, for all that Ridley and Driver pour into their stand-offs, the Emperor's presence shows a disturbing lack of faith at the heart of The Rise Of Skywalker. 

'The fan backlash last time has been taken on-board too well; the storytelling here sputters whenever it approaches any similar chance to turn away from narrative convention and do something truly unexpected.

'You wish that this galaxy didn't feel so small and scared of stepping away from George Lucas' shadow.'

While Vanity Fair's Richard Lawson called it a 'turgid rush toward a conclusion I don’t think anyone wanted', as he added: 'I found it hard to care much either way about Rise Of Skywalker, neither betrayed nor sated. 

'The movie is too determinedly on its sweaty course, heedless of actual audience interest in its tunnel-visioned quest to be broadly loved or, at least, Internet approved-of.'

He went on to say: 'There’s a passion lacking in the movie’s big scenes (and, really, in the little ones too), as if Abrams was woken up in the middle of the night and told to rush down to the studio to put out a fire started by some intern named Rian.'

The Wrap's Alonso Duradle called the film 'soulless' as he wrote: 'Rest assured that there’s nothing in this final Star Wars that would prompt the eye-rolls or the snickers of Episodes I-III; Abrams is too savvy a studio player for those kinds of shenanigans. 

'But his slick delivery of a sterling, shiny example of what Martin Scorsese would call “not cinema” feels momentarily satisfying but ultimately unfulfilling. 

'It’s a somewhat soulless delivery system of catharsis, but Disney and Abrams are banking on the delivery itself to be enough.' 

Disagreeing with that sentiment, Digital Spy's Ian Sandwell wrote that the film 'is a lot of movie and is far from flawless, but overall, it's an emotional, thrilling and satisfying end to the Skywalker Saga, with plenty of surprises up its sleeve.'
