The British star, 56, walked the red carpet with Sasha Schreiber, 17, for an awards season mother-son date. The pair matched in black formal attire at the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica, California. Watts was nominated for best actress in a limited series in her role as Babe Paley in FX's "Feud: Capote vs. The Swans." However, Cristin Milioti took home the trophy for playing Sofia Falcone in HBO's "The Penguin." Join our Watch Party! Sign up to receive USA TODAY's movie and TV recommendations right in your inbox. But Sasha was on hand to cheer on his dad, Liev Schreiber, who won best supporting actor in a limited series for TV for Netflix's "The Perfect Couple." The star said he almost skipped the show because he thought "there's no way on God's earth and in that company that I would win this award." Watts was previously nominated at the Critics Choice Awards in 2013 for "The Impossible" (for which she won) and in 2004 for "21 Grams." Who is Sasha Schreiber? Sasha Schreiber is the eldest child of Naomi Watts. Watts and her then-partner Liev Schreiber welcome their first child in 2007, according to People. The following year, the two welcomed daughter Kai before splitting in 2016 after an 11-year relationship. Contributing: Kim Willis
