She added some additional sparkle to her look with a jeweled bracelet and wore her raven tresses piled elegantly on her head in thick braids.

Elba stars in The Harder They Fall as the real-life outlaw Rufus Buck, though the story bears little resemblance to history.
In an early scene, he and other gang members murder a man and his wife, before carving a cross into their surviving son’s forehead.
That boy is revealed to be Nat Love (played by Jonathan Majors as an adult), who becomes an outlaw too, though he only attacks other law breakers.
After Buck’s sidekick Trudy Smith (King) frees him from custody, Love pursues their gang in hopes of gunning down the man who took his family from him.

The all-star cast also includes Atlanta stars Lakeith Stanfield and Zazie Beetz, as well as legendary actor Delroy Lindo.
Regina seemed to feel positive about the premiere, as she beamed widely while taking to the stage after the screening.
She joined Elba and Majors to address the gala audience.
The film is directed and co-written by the British singer–songwriter Jeymes Samuel, best known by his stage name The Bullitts.
Although he established himself as a musician and producer, he has expanded into filmmaking in the past decade.
In 2013, he released the short film They Die By Dawn, which was a sort of trial run for The Harder They Fall and featured the late Michael K. Williams in Majors’ role, with Erykah Badu, Rosario Dawson, Isaiah Washington and Jesse Williams costarring.
Last year, Regina made her directorial debut with the film One Night In Miami…, which imagined a fictional evening in which Malcolm X, Muhammed Ali, Jim Brown and Sam Cooke all came together to debate how they squared their public personas with the evolving Civil Rights Movement.
