Taron Egerton Holds Hands with Chloe Bennet as They Step Out Together in New York City

Taron Egerton and Chloe Bennet are getting cozy together in chilly New York City.

On Sunday, Dec. 8, the Rocketman star, 35, was photographed strolling the streets of N.Y.C. with Bennet, 32. The two held hands as they walked together to buy coffee and go shopping.

Egerton, with hair buzzed almost to the skin, wore casual jeans and a dark green puffy coat. Also warding off the cold was Bennet, in a dark peacoat and long blue scarf.

This marks the first time that the Welshman and Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. star have been linked as a potential couple. Reps for Egerton and Bennet did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Bennet was last romantically linked to Riverdale star Charles Melton. A source told PEOPLE in May 2023 that they two had "been quietly dating for a few months." Before then, in 2018, she confirmed she was dating YouTuber Logan Paul.

Egerton’s New York City outing with Bennet precedes the release of his latest movie: Carry-On, debuting on Netflix on Dec. 13. The Jaume Collet-Serra-directed thriller stars Egerton as a TSA agent who’s blackmailed by a mysterious airport traveler played by Jason Bateman. Among his other upcoming projects are the crime series Firebug and thriller She Rides Shotgun.

After appearing on FXX comedy Dave, Bennet starred in this year's Hulu mini-series Interior Chinatown opposite Jimmy O. Yang, which premiered in its entirety on Nov. 19.
