Amanda Seyfried Turns Heads with Stunning Blonde Locks While Promoting “The Testament of Ann Lee” in London
Amanda Seyfried has long been a fixture of Hollywood’s A-list, but her recent arrival in London suggests she is entering perhaps the most ambitious phase of her career yet. Touching down in the UK to promote her latest cinematic endeavor, the actress proved that her fashion instincts are just as sharp as her dramatic range.
While the rainy London streets often call for muted tones, Seyfried brought a surge of radiance to the city, turning heads with her signature blonde locks styled in effortless, glossy waves.

The appearance coincided with a series of high-profile events for her new film, The Testament of Ann Lee, where she once again demonstrated her ability to anchor a room. Dressed in a sleek, sophisticated ensemble that complemented her bright complexion, she appeared both poised and energized despite a grueling international press tour.
Her presence at the Picturehouse and the Barbican served as a reminder of why she remains one of the most captivating figures in modern cinema, blending a movie-star glow with a genuine, approachable warmth.
In the film, Seyfried takes on the transformative role of Ann Lee, the historical founder of the religious sect known as the Shakers. This “musical biopic” is far from a traditional Hollywood production, focusing on Lee’s journey from a working-class woman in Manchester to a spiritual leader in colonial America.
Seyfried’s performance has already garnered massive critical acclaim, with many reviewers calling it a career-best turn that captures the ecstasy and agony of a woman proclaimed by her followers to be the female Christ.
To prepare for the role, the actress spent over a year training for the film’s rigorous, ecstatic dance sequences, which were designed to mimic the purging of sin. This physical dedication has clearly paid off, as she recently took home an Astra Film Award for Best Actress and earned two Golden Globe nominations earlier this year. She has spoken openly about the challenges of the project, noting that darkness is reality when portraying a figure who endured immense personal tragedy and persecution.
The film is directed by Mona Fastvold and co-written by Brady Corbet, the duo behind the award-winning The Brutalist. Seyfried is joined by an incredible supporting cast, including Thomasin McKenzie as her close friend Mary Partington, Lewis Pullman as her brother William, and Christopher Abbott as her husband Abraham Standerin.
The movie’s unique atmosphere is further enhanced by an original score from Oscar-winner Daniel Blumberg, which Seyfried recently performed live alongside him at a special London concert.

In addition to this historical epic, Seyfried has been keeping a remarkably busy schedule with other major releases. She recently starred opposite Sydney Sweeney in the psychological thriller The Housemaid, an adaptation of Freida McFadden’s bestselling novel that is currently making waves on streaming platforms. She also recently led the limited series Long Bright River, proving her versatility across both film and television.
Off-screen, the actress celebrated her 40th birthday in late 2025 with a nostalgic roller-skating party upstate, a moment she shared with her children and close friends. She has expressed a new sense of discernment in her career, stating that she is very appreciative of where she is standing right now as she balances motherhood with high-stakes artistic choices. With rumors of a potential Mamma Mia! 3 still swirling and several unannounced projects in the works, her trajectory shows no signs of slowing down.
