Paul Mescal and Girlfriend Gracie Abrams Have Date Night at “Gladiator II” Premiere

Paul Mescal and Gracie Abrams were first romantically linked in June

Paul Mescal and Gracie Abrams had an epic night out together at the premiere of Gladiator II.

Mescal, 28, brought his girlfriend of several months Abrams, 25, to the Los Angeles premiere of his new action blockbuster on Monday, Nov. 18. While the pair did not walk the red carpet together, Mescal and the "I Love You, I'm Sorry" singer appeared very affectionate at the premiere's afterparty, where they posed together for a photo shared to the movie's official TikTok page.

Mescal and Abrams have been romantically linked since June, when TMZ obtained photos of the two sharing a meal together in London. The pair were seen stepping out together again in London in August, and a source told PEOPLE that Mescal and Abrams were "hooking up and it's still early stages" on Aug. 19.

Though Mescal has held high-profile relationships in the past — he was previously romantically linked to indie singer/songwriter Phoebe Bridgers — the actor made it clear in recent months that he does not enjoy sharing details of his personal life publicly. While speaking with GQ's for the magazine's November issue, Mescal said that he has "learned that there’s certain lines in the sand now for me that just are going to be impenetrable for the benefit of my own sanity."

"The speculation has been kind of mad for the last x amount of years. I’m not comfortable inviting any access into that part of my life," he said. "How I am in my private life is so precious to me because I get very little of it, and it might be public interest, but it’s not public-obligated information.”

Mescal teamed up with filmmaker Ridley Scott for Gladiator II, a sequel to Scott's hit 2000 movie Gladiator. The movie costars Connie Nielsen, Denzel Washington, Pedro Pascal, Joseph Quinn and Fred Hechinger, among others. When reporters asked Mescal at the L.A. premiere whether he and Scott, 86, may make a third movie in the series, the actor said, "I think so. If there's going to be a Gladiator III, I hope I'm in it."
