Rachel Weisz was seen in New York City on Wednesday, just days after she dazzled while at the Cannes Film festival in France.
The 53-year-old actress looked elegant in a flirty pale blue and ivory floral print dress that came in at the waistline and had a hem with a ruffle.
The wife of 007 vet Daniel Craig added pointy white pumps and wore her hair down as she looked camera ready outside NBC studios.
The Oscar-winner has been promoting her new series Dead Ringers.
The six-episode miniseries is a gender-swapped adaptation of director David Cronenberg’s 1988 psychological thriller of the same name, which starred Jeremy Irons as twin gynecologists’ operating a infertility clinic.

It comes after the actress, who shares a daughter with husband Daniel Craig, revealed she was ‘obsessed’ with the original movie and that it was she who brought the idea of a female-led remake to Amazon.
Amazon first announced the project in August 2020, giving it a straight-to-series order, with production beginning in August 2021.
Set in New York, Weisz plays both Elliot and Beverly Mantle, twins who share everything: drugs, lovers and an unapologetic desire to do whatever it takes.
They team up to push the boundaries of medical ethics -in an effort to challenge antiquated practices and bring women’s health care to the forefront.
The key to the plot is the relationship between them, she explained.
She said: ‘Beverly is altruistic, thoughtful, careful, and kind. She wants to change the way women give birth.
‘Elliot is very, very different. She’s not altruistic and she’s pushing the boundaries of what’s ethical.’

Dark humor: ‘It’s quite deliciously mischievous at times. Emotional. Moving. And there is some humor, also — darkly, darkly humorous,’ Weisz told the Hollywood Reporter
‘It’s quite deliciously mischievous at times. Emotional. Moving. And there is some humor, also — darkly, darkly humorous,’ Weisz told the Hollywood Reporter.
With her telling the publication: ‘It’s a very intense relationship. They love each other very deeply, but I think they kind of feel everything about each other very deeply, and that takes us to more of a dangerous co-dependent place.’
The original David Cronenberg film was adapted from the 1977 novel Twins by Bari Wood and Jack Geasland, which was loosely based on the true story of twin gynecologists Stewart and Cyril Marcus.
They were both found dead in July 1975 in separate rooms of Cyril’s Manhattan apartment at just 45 years of age, with Stewart dying of a barbiturate overdose and Cyril suspected of possibly taking his own life in a suicide pact after finding his brother dead.
On Saturday evening she was seen at Day Two of the Canneseries International Festival.
