<p id=”par-3_70″>Lynch explained her style selection to <a href=”https://www.vogue.co.uk/gallery/lashana-lynch-pregnant” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Vogue</a>, “I feel comfortable and at ease, but also in charge of myself. Some red carpet gowns, although beautiful and stunning, feel like you’re putting on a different part of yourself, whereas here I feel like I’m celebrating the female figure.” To emphasize her growing baby bump, the <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/no-time-to-die-who-does-lashana-lynch-play.html/”><em>No Time to Die</em> actor</a> placed her hands on her thigh, showing it off with pride.</p>

<p id=”par-4_97″>The release of the political thriller represents a significant moment for Lashana Lynch, both in her career and personal development. As a co-executive producer, she focused on enhancing women’s representation on screen, aligning this with her bold fashion choices. <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/the-woman-king-filming-location-physically-hardest-thing-cast-crew-done-before.html/”><em>The Woman King</em> star</a> told Vogue, “I have spent many years trying to figure out what I’m trying to represent on the carpet every single time I release a project. I’ve played a lot with colours and textures and lengths and volume. And I’m really grateful for those moments because they’ve helped me grow as a woman. </p>

<p id=”par-5_85″>Lynch continued, “The roles that I’m playing right now are very much breaking through the glass ceiling. And I think fashion should also reflect that, so that’s what this dress is doing.” The Marvel actor receives support from her co-stars Eddie Redmayne and Úrsula Corberó. Together, the three actors star in <em>The Day of the Jackal</em>, an upcoming British television series. Adapted from Frederick Forsyth’s titular novel, the drama follows a ruthless British assassin called the “Jackal” (Redmayne). Lynch stars as the intelligence officer tasked with capturing him.</p>
