Emile Hirsch

Penelope Cruz joined her Twice Born costars, including Emile Hirsch, at a press conference in Toronto today. The movie, which was filmed in Rome last Fall, was previously titled Venuto al Mondo. Emile is coming off his Summer drama, Savages, to promote the project, while Penelope has been in London working on her next film, The Counselor, with husband Javier Bardem and Cameron Diaz. Penelope and Emile have a busy few days ahead of them with two more events scheduled before TIFF ends on Sunday. The festival has brought out many famous faces since kicking off last week, and we've been bringing you the latest as it happens — make sure to check out reviews of all the TIFF films

Blake Lively and Salma Hayek were a pair of stunning visions at their LA premiere of Savages on Monday evening. Blake channeled Old Hollywood in Zuhair Murad gown, while Salma showed off her curves in green. The two ladies were joined by their costars for the Oliver Stone drama, including Taylor Kitsch, Mary-Louise Parker, and Emile Hirsch. John Travolta and his wife, Kelly Preston, also hit the red carpet together, not showing any signs of stress despite all the recent drama surrounding their family. Blake was without her man Ryan Reynolds, though the two are going strong and were spotted shopping outside NYC together last week. The actress will soon be starting work on her final season of Gossip Girl, but she's already lining up her next high-profile projects: this week Blake was named the face of Gucci fragrance.

Penelope Cruz, Emile Hirsch and their Venuto al Mondo director Sergio Castellitto were on hand in Italy today for the Rome Film Festival. The cast took part in a loved up photocall, where Sergio planted a kiss on Penelope's cheek, then headed into a panel discussion about their project. The actors were seated next to each other during the question and answer session while an Italian occasionally leaned in to help translate. Penelope and Emile have been filming on location throughout Europe over the past two months, and Penelope's taken advantage of the exotic destinations to explore new cities with her favorite guys Leo and Javier Bardem.

Penelope Cruz struck a variety of funny poses yesterday while on the Rome set of Venuto al Mondo. She threw her hands in the air, gave herself a mustache with her hair, and signaled for everyone to hush during the silly photo shoot with her director Sergio Castellitto. Later on, Penelope changed out of the light dress and into a black suit for more serious scenes with her costar Emile Hirsch. Penelope and Javier Bardem's son Leo is in Italy with them during production on the film, and the family of three was seen enjoying some of the local cuisine just a few days ago. The next set Leo visits may be one of Javier's. The happy new dad just confirmed that he'll star in the next James Bond and shooting that action piece is expected to start later this year.

Penelope Cruz and Emile Hirsch snuggled up on the set of Venuto al Mondo in Rome yesterday. As filming continued, the scene turned into a fight with Penelope struggling to throw Emile's cigarette into the water. Penelope's been working on the project since last month and her husband Javier Bardem and son Leo have joined her on location. Penelope and Javier had lunch with baby Leo over the weekend during a break from production. It wasn't the only family time Penelope's had during her overseas stay, since her sister Monica and her boyfriend Alex Gonzalez visited the actress in Italy just last week.
