British actor Joe Alwyn has been spotted for the first time since news of his split with popstar Taylor Swift made headlines earlier this month. Alwyn was photographed by his costar Emma Laird on the set of their upcoming film “The Brutalist.”
Laird, who stars alongside Alwyn in the series “Conversations with Friends,” shared a series of photos on her Instagram account recapping the month of March on the set of their new movie. In the third photo, Alwyn can be seen riding an electric scooter and smiling, which has left fans excited as it marks the first time he’s been seen since the news of his breakup with Swift.
While Alwyn and Swift’s breakup was officially confirmed by People magazine on April 8th, sources suggest that the couple split a few weeks prior to the announcement. Laird’s caption on the post suggests that the photo was taken back in March, further confirming that Alwyn has kept a low profile since the news of the split.
Alwyn and Swift started dating in 2016, and the couple kept their relationship largely out of the public eye. However, the pair did make a rare public appearance together at the Golden Globes in 2020. Swift has been known to draw inspiration from her personal life for her music, and many fans are eagerly waiting to see if the breakup will inspire any new songs.
Meanwhile, Alwyn has been keeping busy with his acting career. “The Brutalist” is an upcoming film based on the novel of the same name by Michael Cannell, which follows an architect named Letha Sandison as she navigates a cut-throat industry. The movie is being directed by Brady Corbet and also stars Joel Edgerton and Marion Cotillard.
It remains to be seen how Alwyn and Swift will move forward post-breakup, but fans will undoubtedly be keeping a close eye on their individual endeavors.
