‘Hacksaw Ridge’ director Mel Gibson, girlfriend party after Golden Globes
After staying in Australia in 2015 for his film “Hacksaw Ridge,” Mel Gibson, 60, attended the 73rd Golden Globe Awards at The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California on Jan. 10, Sunday. After the awards ceremony, he was spotted with his girlfriend Rosalind Ross, 24.
Gibson and Ross attended the CAA after-party on the Sunset Strip in Hollywood, California, TMZ reports. Before pursuing a career in screenwriting, the latter used to be a world champion equestrian vaulter.
During the Golden Globes after-party, Gibson and Ross were seen holding hands. The “Hacksaw Ridge” director wore a black tuxedo matched with a bowtie while his girlfriend wore a strapless purple gown with a flowing train.
Prior to the after-party, Golden Globes 2016 host Ricky Gervais, 54, made fun of Gibson’s drinking habits in the past. The director and actor fired back, saying that seeing the English comedian every three years reminds him to get a colonoscopy.
Gibson served as one of the presenters during the Golden Globes 2016. He introduced “Mad Max: Fury Road,” which was nominated for Best Motion Picture-Drama but it lost to the Leonardo DiCaprio starrer “The Revenant.”
Meanwhile, Gibson’s upcoming biographical drama film “Hacksaw Ridge” will star “Amazing Spider-Man” star Andrew Garfield as World War II American Army Medic Desmond T. Doss. Many of Garfield’s co-stars are Australians including Teresa Palmer, Hugo Weaving, Sam Worthington and Luke Bracey, among others.
In an interview with The Wrap in December 2015, Bracey talked about working with Gibson in “Hacksaw Ridge.” He said the movie is going to be “pretty sick” and he described Gibson as a “genius.”
Aside from “Hacksaw Ridge,” Gibson is also set to star in an upcoming action thriller film entitled “Blood Father,” which is directed by Jean-Francois Richet. Gibson’s co-stars are Elisabeth Rohm, Erin Moriarty, William H. Macy, Diego Luna, among others.
The story of “Blood Father” revolves around an ex-convict who reunites with his estranged teenage daughter. The screenplay of the film is written by Peter Craig and Andrea Berloff based on the novel by the former.
