Jeremy Strong looked smart as he attended the gala screening of The Apprentice at the BFI London Film Festival on Tuesday.
The actor, 45, who stars as lawyer Roy Cohn in the controversial Donald Trump biopic, wore a brown suede suit while walking the red carpet.
He teamed the two-piece suede suit with a matching polo neck jumper and added a pair of patent shoes.
Jeremy was joined by his co-stars Sebastian Stan, who plays Donald Trump, Maria Bakalova, who stars as Ivana, and filmmaker Ali Abbasi.
The film, which chronicles Trump’s real estate career, has been at the centre of a media storm after it flopped in box office and was slammed by Donald himself.

Donald lost it on Truth Social over the new movie on Monday .
It includes controversial scenes including one where Trump sexually assaults his then-wife, Ivana, and one where he gets liposuction and surgery to cover up a growing bald spot at the back of his head.
Trump called the movie ‘FAKE’ and ‘CLASSLESS’ on Truth Social, adding that it ‘will hopefully ‘bomb.”
‘It’s a cheap, defamatory, and politically disgusting hatchet job, put out right before the 2024 Presidential Election, to try and hurt the Greatest Political Movement in the History of our Country,’ he said.
He added that his late wife Ivana ‘was a kind and wonderful person, and I had a great relationship with her until the day she died’.
‘The writer of this pile of garbage, Gabe Sherman, a lowlife and talentless hack, who has long been widely discredited, knew that, but chose to ignore it,’ he continued.
‘So sad that HUMAN SCUM, like the people involved in this hopefully unsuccessful enterprise, are allowed to say and do whatever they want in order to hurt a Political Movement, which is far bigger than any of us. MAGA2024!’
Prior to writing the film, his first feature, Sherman wrote for Vanity Fair and New York magazine and authored the Roger Ailes biography, The Loudest Voice in the Room.

After adapting that book for a Showtime limited series starring Russell Crowe, Sherman started penning the movie that would become The Apprentice.
He said he thoroughly reported out the script.
‘I read everything I could about Donald Trump and Roy Cohn and New York City in the 1970s and ’80s,’ Sherman said in a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter. ‘
‘And then I went out interviewing people who knew Donald and Roy during those years and asked them for more anecdotes. So it was a mix of historical research plus my own interviews.’
The rape scene is based on a divorce deposition from Ivana Trump that she later recanted in 2015 after he announced his first presidential run.
