Naomi attended the Screen Actors Guild Awards on Saturday in Los Angeles with her husband Billy Crudup, 55.

In addition to The Friend, Naomi has the upcoming French erotic drama film Emmanuelle in the works.

Bill can be seen in the upcoming crime thriller Riff Raff which is currently in post-production.
