The beloved 52-year-old actress stars in the sequel to the horror classic Beetlejuice (titled Beetlejuice Beetlejuice ), co-starring Jenna Ortega, Michael Keaton, Catherine O'Hara, and more.
As her date for the premiere and on the red carpet, she brought her longtime boyfriend Scott Mackinlay Hahn , her doting partner and one of her biggest fans.
The couple were picture perfect on the carpet as they walked hand in hand, a perfect depiction of their decade-long romance, and their loving display left many fans wanting to know more about her partner.
Here's what you need to know about Scott, his claim to fame, and their low-key relationship…
Scott, 53, grew up on Fire Island and is a fashion designer and entrepreneur, who initially got his big break in the business with the brands Rogan and Egan in 2001 after graduating from the New York School of Design, collaborating with designer Rogan Gregory (and getting some help from Bono for the latter).
However, in 2004, he branched out on his own when he founded the sustainable clothing design company Loomstate, focusing on creating garments using 100% organic cotton, and even designing Chipotle's uniforms in 2009.
The Loomstate website states that Scott's desire to start the company arose when "he learned more about how conventional cotton was made and was disturbed at how destructive and single-minded the usual methods were."
How did Scott and Winona's romance begin?
The pair first met back in 2010 at the premiere of Black Swan , although Scott was completely removed from the industry and had little idea of who she was.
In fact, in a 2022 interview with Harper's Bazaar , she joked that he didn't recognize her at all. "He thought I was Milla Jovovich. He told me I was great in The Fifth Element ."
They quietly began dating later that year and kept their relationship on the down-low for quite a while before making appearances together, the very first being at Tim Burton's Opening Party at LACMA in early 2011.
They finally went red carpet official at the opening of Orphans on Broadway in 2013 and have continued making loved-up appearances together ever since. The couple divide their time between a home in NYC which they rent, and another in Los Angeles that Winona owns.
What has Winona said about their relationship?
In her 2022 Bazaar interview, Winona credited Scott with being a stabilizing force in her life. "We have so much in common," she gushed. "We connected on so many levels. But it was amazing that he's not in this business…I really did try to keep it quiet."
She told the publication once again in a more recent interview in July: "He's so great. He really is. I'm really lucky," while also referencing her past relationships.
"In my 30s, I had two disastrous relationships that were — they weren't wrong, but this was before you would ever think to Google someone," she said. "When I look back, I'm like, 'What the hell was I thinking?' I was dating the type of person who only lets you know a few weeks in that they're in a relationship with someone else. And you're just like, 'What the [expletive]?'"
