Emma Stone looked every inch the movie star even in a laid-back ensemble as she stepped out for a Hollywood afterparty on Friday night.
Flaunting her new taut complexion, the star kept it simple in a black sweatshirt and matching pants while leaving The Edition hotel in West Hollywood, proving she can shine without full glam.
The outing comes hot on the heels of the premiere of her new conspiracy theory film Bugonia, in which her character is kidnapped by two men convinced she’s an alien.
Stone recently had fans buzzing with her own out-of-this-world revelation during Wednesday’s episode of The Late Show.
She identified which of her former costars she believes could secretly be an extraterrestrial.
‘Willem Dafoe,’ Stone said without missing a beat. ‘Hundred percent.’

Earlier this month, she posed for a photo alongside Blackpink’s Lisa Manobal at the Louis Vuitton Spring/Summer 2026 show during Paris Fashion Week.
Fans were baffled at Stone’s seemingly changed appearance as discourse ensued about what plastic surgery procedure she may have allegedly undergone.
Many claimed that she looked unrecognizable in photos from the event and started speculating why she looked ‘different.’
It comes after Emma was branded as ‘detached from reality’ after she compared her latest film to the Luigi Mangione case — and asked audiences if they had ‘heard’ of it.
The actress plays a high-powered CEO of a medical company who gets kidnapped by an employee played by Jesse Plemons in Yorgos Lanthimos’s latest film, Bugonia.
Mangione is accused of murdering United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson, a 50-year-old father-of-two, outside a Manhattan hotel while he was attending a work conference on December 4, 2024.
He has pleaded not guilty to both state and federal charges in connection with the December murder.
If Mangione is convicted, federal prosecutors plan to seek the death penalty.

Speaking at a Q&A for the project at Telluride Film Festival on August 30, Stone said that she found ‘terrifying’ similarities between the movie’s plot and the Mangione case.
‘What’s really crazy, after we had shot the film – I live in New York – we heard someone was shot up the street,’ she said. ‘It was a healthcare CEO. You know, because Luigi. You guys heard about this?’
Stone continued: ‘It was wild, because we had all just been in a basement [filming] together, talking about these issues and the bigger meaning of everything.
‘It keeps hitting you that the world is so deeply fraught and terrifying in so many ways.’
Bugonia marks her second collaboration with her Poor Things director Yorgos Lanthimos.

Bugonia is described as a ‘satirical absurdist science fiction dark comedy’ and is based on a screenplay by Will Tracy.
The absurdist black comedy follows two conspiracy-obsessed men who kidnap the CEO of a major company when they become convinced that she’s an alien who wants to destroy the earth.
It is an English-language remake of the 2003 South Korean film Save the Green Planet! by Jang Joon-hwan.
Stone plays the CEO named Michelle Fuller and stars alongside Jesse Plemons, Stavros Halkias and Alicia Silverstone in supporting roles.
Bugonia premieres in theaters on Halloween, October 31.
