John Travolta hit the red carpet with his daughter Ella Bleu as his date to celebrate the 30th anniversary of his 1994 classic Pulp Fiction.
The 70-year-old actor was accompanied by his 24-year-old daughter on the red carpet at the 2024 TCM Film Festival, where the 30th anniversary screening of Pulp Fiction was the opening night film.
The actor was joined by his co-stars Samuel L. Jackson, Uma Thurman, Harvey Keitel, Rosanna Arquette, Phil LaMarr, Burr Steers, Eric Stoltz, Julia Sweeney and Frank Whaley for the event.
The outing comes just days after Travolta wrote a touching tribute to his late son Jett, on what would have been his 32nd birthday.

Her daughter Ella Bleu opted for a stunning floral print dress, accessorizing it with small gold hoops and completing her look with black Dior heels.
John also hit the red carpet with Uma Thurman, who played Mia Wallace opposite Vincent Vega in the Quentin Tarantino classic.
The film followed three stories, each with intersecting characters, with a unique and unorthodox structure.
The three main characters were Travolta’s Vega, a hitman for Marsellus Wallace (Ving Rhames), a boxer named Butch (Bruce Willis) who goes on the run after upending a fixed fight, and Vincent’s partner Jules Winnfield (Samuel L. Jackson).
The film is told out of chronological order, although the story is primarily driven by Butch, who betrays Wallace by not only not going down when he was told, but by winning the fight and ultimately killing the other boxer.
He has to put his affairs in order before fleeing with his girlfriend Fabienne (Maria de Medeiros), while Marsellus sends Vincent and Jules after him.
The film was Quentin Tarantino’s second feature film, following his 1992 debut, Reservoir Dogs, and helped propel the independent film scene to new heights.
