Aubrey Plaza Rises Like a Darkly Dressed Phoenix at Cannes, Slays Red Carpet, and Premieres New Movie ‘Honey Don’t’

Buy Me A Coffee

Cannes you believe it?! Aubrey Plaza just made her 2025 red carpet comeback, and let’s just say… she didn’t just attend the Cannes Film Festival, she Plaza’d it.

On Friday night (May 23), Aubrey showed up looking like she just walked out of a noir fever dream—in the best way—at the premiere of her new movie Honey Don’t. And yes, the crowd probably whispered “Honey, DO 👏” as she stepped onto the carpet in France, serving dark glamour, mystery, and “I’ve seen things” energy.

Joining her glam squad of mischief were fellow stars Margaret Qualley (aka indie film royalty), Charlie Day (aka chaos personified), Talia Ryder (Gen Z it-girl alert), and Lera Abova (cooler than you, don’t try). Oh, and the brains behind the madness—director Ethan Coen and co-writer Tricia Cooke—were also there, probably plotting their next cinematic crime.

This red carpet moment is big—not just because it’s Cannes (where even the snacks are pretentious), but because it’s Aubrey’s first public appearance since the tragic passing of her husband Jeff Baena earlier this year. Jeff, who died by suicide in January at 47, had reportedly separated from Aubrey months before. Heavy hearts, y’all—but Aubrey walked that carpet with quiet strength, grace, and a look that said “I’m grieving, but also thriving.”

So, what’s Honey Don’t even about? Buckle up, babes—it’s a dark comedy (duh, it’s Aubrey) that follows Margaret Qualley as Honey O’Donahue, a small-town private investigator with Nancy Drew if she had trauma energy. She starts snooping around a bunch of bizarre deaths tied to a church that definitely gives “secret cult that sells essential oils” vibes. There’s mystery, mayhem, and a lot of side-eye.

Oh, and the trailer? Pure chaos. Popcorn-flying, gasping-out-loud chaos. Mark your calendars, cinema snobs—Honey Don’t hits theaters August 22. Until then, expect Aubrey to haunt your timelines like the sexy ghost of sarcasm past.
