It's a family affair!

For the rare public family outing, the family of five—inclusive of the famous parents and their adult children Katia , 37, Malcolm , 33, and John David , 40—were all smiles as they posed together at a film premiere.

In the capture, the BlacKkKlansman star, who is also a former professional football player, sported a classic belted suit worn over a white tee. Katia opted for a gray blazer and slacks with a brooch, while their mom looked peachy in a glamorous pastel-colored ensemble featuring a satin lapel and several strings of pearls.

As for Malcolm, he opted for a chic, oversized wide-leg pants and blazer combo, as the iconic Oscar winner kept it cool, suited up in all black.

Denzel and Pauletta also share an additional daughter, Malcolm's twin sister, Olivia , who was not present for the joint photo op.
