Dustin Hoffman (86) has made the red carpet a family affair: At the premiere of “Kung Fu Panda 4” in Los Angeles, the Hollywood star posed for photographers with his wife Lisa (69) and two of his younger grandchildren.
Hoffman, who once again lends his voice to Master Shifu in the fourth installment of the animated series, held a grandson on each hand and smiled as he stood next to his wife. He has been married to businesswoman Lisa since October 1980 and the couple has four children together: Jake (42), Rebecca (40), Max (39) and Alexandra (36). The two-time Oscar winner also has daughters Jenna (53) and Karina (58) with his ex-wife Anne Byrne (80), to whom Hoffman was married from 1969 to 1980. The family includes several grandchildren. He had already revealed in an interview in 2006 that he enjoys being a grandpa and spending time with his grandchildren.
Now he enjoyed the trip together to the premiere party. All four posed casually on the red carpet. Hoffman had chosen a blue blazer, his wife a black pants suit. One of the boys was also dressed in dark colors, the other wore a blue denim jacket and light-colored pants. With their blonde curly heads, they were a sought-after photo motif on the red carpet.
The Hoffman couple don’t often appear together in public. In December they were seen together in the audience at a Lakers game. The actor hit the stands wearing a blue shirt and a black windbreaker-style coat, while his wife wore a gray blazer-style coat over a black turtleneck.
Although the marriage between Hoffman and his wife has lasted more than four decades and he is the father of six children, the actor said back in 2011: “There is nothing more unnatural than family or marriage. That’s why both are so difficult.” As you could now see, he still succeeded.
