Aaron Taylor-Johnson joined his wife, director Sam Taylor-Johnson, at the premiere of her new film Back to Black on Monday night in matching outfits.

The 33-year-old actor, who is currently still the favourite for the vacant role of James Bond, opted for an all-black look to complement his 57-year-old spouse’s choice of dress – as well as the title of the movie.

The Fall Guy star was in black trousers, an unbuttoned dark shirt and a black leather jacket, while Fifty Shades of Grey filmmaker Sam wore a black shift dress with a structured bow detail belt.

Posing with their arms around one another, the couple was pictured together at the top of the carpet, as well as sharing a sweet smile with another.

Aaron then bowed out as Sam hit the red carpet with her Back to Black cast and crew, including lead actress Marisa Abela, who plays Amy Winehouse in the biopic, Jack O’Connell and Eddie Marsan.

Also in attendance were members of late singer Winehouse’s family, including dad Mitch, 73, and her mother Janis, 69, in a rare outing, who posed the help of a mobility device following her multiple sclerosis diagnosis.

The former husband and wife, who also share son Alex, 45, divorced in 1993, and are played by Marsan and Juliet Cowan, respectively.

They have faced criticism for signing off on the controversial biopic about their daughter, which delves deep into her personal demons as she is launched to stardom.

However, director Sam has insisted that her family had no say or sway in the contents of the film, and certainly didn’t contribute to it.

‘It was important to meet with them out of respect,’ she told Empire magazine. ‘But they have no involvement in terms of… like, they couldn’t change things.

‘They couldn’t dictate how I was to shoot. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have done it.’

Also present at the premiere was Alex and other members of the Winehouse family, some of whom are involved with the Amy Winehouse Foundation.

Although Aaron stepped out of the spotlight last night, the casting rumours for Bond continue to swirl around him with no sign of abating.

It was claimed earlier this year that he had been offered a contract to become the next person to play the 007, but Metro.co.uk later learned that he hasn’t been cast yet, as an insider poured cold water on the rumours.

However, that hasn’t stopped his wife being pressed for details as well.

Quizzed by Jonathan Ross on his ITV show about the rumours while promoting Back to Black with Maris, Sam joked: ‘You mean that I might direct a Bond film? The first woman director.’

The director then added: ‘Carry on speculating. He’d be great.’

Aaron married Sam after meeting on the set of Nowhere Boy in 2009, when he was aged 18.

Within a year the couple had confirmed their relationship, got engaged, and announced they had a baby on the way – all under intense speculation due to the maturity gap.

‘It’s really interesting. When I directed Nowhere Boy, he wasn’t my husband. When I directed A Million Little Pieces he was,’ she went on.

Sam continued: ‘He gets very intense. It’s quite interesting depending on what character he’s playing.

‘Nocturnal Animals for example, was very hard. He was not washing, his nails were really long, he was drinking and he was watching a lot of serial killer documentaries.

‘He wanted to be toxic from the inside in order to play such a toxic character.

‘There was one morning when he woke up and thought the bed was on fire but we were actually saging him.’

They share daughters Wylda Rae, 13, and Romy Hero, 12, together.

Aaron is also stepfather to Angelica, 26, and 18-year-old Jessie, from Sam’s previous marriage to Jay Jopling.
