Cary Elwes, known for his role as Westley in the iconic romantic fantasy film, “The Princess Bride,” made a stunning appearance on the Oscars red carpet alongside his wife, Lisa Marie Kubikoff. Despite being 63, Elwes looked as handsome as ever in a classic tux, proving that he has barely aged since the film’s release in 1987.
Elwes recently took to Instagram to honor his dear friend, Rob Reiner, on what would have been his 79th birthday. In a heartfelt post, Elwes expressed the difficulty of accepting Reiner’s passing, who tragically died on December 14, 2025.
When it comes to family, Elwes prioritizes his wife and daughter above all else. He often speaks about his dedication to his loved ones and goes out of his way to spend time with them, even when he’s away filming. Elwes and Lisa have been married since 2000 and share an 18-year-old daughter, Dominique, who is following in her father’s footsteps by studying film in college.
Elwes couldn’t be prouder of Dominique’s decision to pursue a career in the film industry. He shared a heartwarming story about how she became interested in film after watching him dress up for roles. Now, with her own passion for filmmaking, Dominique is set to embark on her own journey in the industry, studying directing, film theory, and film history. Elwes expressed his pride in her accomplishments and happiness that she’ll be studying close to home.
Overall, Elwes continues to impress not only with his timeless charm on the red carpet but also with his unwavering dedication to his family and support for his daughter’s career aspirations in the film industry. His commitment to his loved ones shines through, making him not only a talented actor but also a loving husband and father.
