Nell Mescal cut a striking figure in a cream gown as she proudly supported her brother Paul at the Gladiator II premiere in London on Wednesday.

The younger sister of the Hollywood heartthrob, 21, was a vision in the shimmery strapless number as she graced the dazzling red carpet over the evening.

The Irish singer twirled around showing her glamorous dress and beamed gently, sporting classy brown stilettos.

She added dazzling pendant earrings and finished off with a glossy red lipstick and peachy eyeshadow.

Nell looked every inch of the proud sister as she supported Paul, 28, in his eagerly-anticipated leading role for the second instalment of the period action movie, starring alongside Pedro Pascal, Denzel Washington and Joseph Quinn.

Gladiator II will hit both US and UK theatres on November 22 – where Oscar nominee Paul’s character battles three-time Emmy nominee Pedro’s Roman general-turned-gladiator, man-eating baboons, and a rhino-riding warrior.

Paul took over the role of Lucius Verus (Spencer Treat Clark), the grown-up nephew of the late Roman Emperor Commodus (Joaquin Phoenix) who idolized the late general-turned-slave-turned-gladiator Maximus Decimus Meridius (Russell Crowe).

Gladiator II – which has men fighting atop giant boats in shark-infested waters – will also feature Matt Lucas, Fred Hecnhinger, May Calamawy, Lior Raz, Peter Mensah, and Tim McInnerny.

‘Working on this film was one of the standout moments of my life to date,’ Paul gushed in the pre-taped introduction.

‘Getting to go to work every day with Sir Ridley Scott behind the camera is a good day to work in any context.’

Speaking candidly earlier this summer, Nell insisted her success in the music industry is purely down to her hard work and not because of her famous brother. 

The songwriter has told in a candid new interview how her brother’s fame has impacted her.

The Normal People alum is one of the most sought after actors of the past five years – after soaring to fame in Normal People and starring in Gladiator II.

Nell has now said that when she was first signed for her music and came over to the UK she was encouraged to drop her surname so the ᴀssociation with Paul was lost.

She told The Sunday Times: ‘When I first signed and came over to the UK, a lot of people said, ‘Do you want to change your name to just Nell?’

‘No. I love my name. A lot of people will ᴀssume that any room I get into is because of one certain thing [her brother], but it’s not true and that’s something I’ve come to terms with.  I know I am where I am because of how hard I work.’
