South African actress Charlize Theron was joined by her children, 11-year-old August (left) and Jackson, 14, at the New York premiere of The Odyssey at AMC Lincoln Square Theater.

The Oscar-winning actress looked elegant in a white blazer minidress with a dramatic draped waist detail by Christian Dior. She accessorized with a pair of white embellished strappy heels and a gold choker necklace.

Jackson walked a few steps behind because they are at that awkward teenage phase when gangly teens are all arms and legs and they just don’t like how they look. So they hang back and avoid the cameras.
