Sam Claflin looks dapper in a red suit at the Los Angeles premiere of Daisy Jones & The Six

Sam Claflin was ready for the spotlight at the premiere of his new show Daisy Jones & The Six on Thursday night in Los Angeles.

The Peaky Blinders alumnus, 36, looked dapper in a dark red suit as he strutted the carpet at TCL Chinese Theatre alongside the rest of the show’s cast.

He dressed his look down by wearing a black T-shirt underneath his unbuttoned jacket, which he tucked into his matching dark red trousers.

Claflin kept the rest of his look simple with a pair of polished black dress shoes and a silver watch on his wrist.

The Me Before You actor had his brunette hair cut close to his head and went unshaven.

It’s a stark contrast to his character in the show, the rock & roll rebel Billy Dunne, who wears his hair down to his shoulders and has a clean-shaven face.

Daisy Jones & The Six is an adaptation of The New York Times bestselling book of the same name.

It was written in 2019 by Taylor Jenkins Reid, who wrote The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, Malibu Rising and Carrie Soto Is Back.

She also wrote the book One True Loves, which is being made into a movie and will star Simu Liu, Luke Bracey and Phillipa Soo.

Daisy Jones & The Six follows the rise of rock band Daisy Jones & The Six through the ’70s LA music scene on their quest for worldwide icon status.

Claflin was joined on the carpet by his fellow cast members, including Riley Keough, who will play the titular character of Daisy Jones in the show.

Keough, 33, is the granddaughter of the ‘King of Rock & Roll,’ Elvis Presley, and the daughter of the late Lisa Marie Presley.

On the carpet, the beauty flaunted her gorgeous figure in a black strapless top with a plunging neckline that went down to the middle of her chest.
