Nepo baby Nico Parker put on a leggy display in a floral dress at the How To Train Your Dragon film screening at Universal's Epic Universe on Wednesday.
Nico Parker, 20, who is the daughter of Emmy winner Thandiwe Newton, 52, and director Ol Parker, 64, looked incredible in her ensemble.
Thandiwe's lookalike daughter commanded attention in an ethereal backless gown at the star-studded screening.
Nico stars in the upcoming film, a live-action adaptation of the 2010 animated movie, which is set to hit theatres later this year on June 13.
She slipped into stylish white Christian Louboutin stilettos and accessorised her look with dainty earrings.

At the glitzy event, Nico was joined by co star Mason Thames, 17, who stars as the lead, inventive Viking, Hiccup.
Nico also posed alongside Hollywood legend Gerard Butler, 55, who stars as Viking leader and Hiccup's father, Stoick.
A synopsis for the film reads: 'As an ancient threat endangers both Vikings and dragons alike on the isle of Berk, the friendship between Hiccup, an inventive Viking, and Toothless, a Night Fury dragon, becomes the key to both species forging a new future together.'
Nico rubbing shoulders with A-listers is not something unfamiliar to her as she has starred in multiple films already and her parents have seen years of success in the film and showbusiness industry.
Thandiwe has had several roles in many high profile films such as Mission: Impossible II, The Pursuit Of Happyness, Norbit and Solo: A Star Wars Story.
While Oliver has also worked for many respected titles such as Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again, Ticket to Paradise and The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel.
And Nico has already had some appearances in some films herself as she starred in Bridget Jones: Mad About The Boy, Dumbo and The Last Of Us.
Nico has already been nominated for four awards for her acting, one including a BAFTA, and won a Breakthrough Performance award at Sundance Film Festival for her part in Suncoast.
The film was originally an animated flick and was released in 2010 and saw huge success which led to a sequel and a series and it's live action version will hit UK cinemas on June 13
