John Travolta rocks his viral beret AGAIN as he is joined by daughter Ella Bleu, 26, at premiere of his directorial debut in NYC

John Travolta proved he is totally committed to his now-viral beret look as he once again wore the French-style cap on the red carpet on Thursday night.

The Grease star, 72, was joined by his daughter Ella Bleu Travolta, 26, at the New York City premiere of his new film Propeller One-Way Night Coach at The Museum of Modern Art.

It marks Travolta's directorial debut and is based on a children's book he wrote nearly 30 years ago in 1997.

Propeller One-Way Night Coach will be available to stream on Apple TV starting May 29.

Travolta looked beyond thrilled to be celebrating his buzzy new project as he posed up for photographers with a navy blue beret atop his bald head.

The chic hat matched his navy blue suit and bow tie. He completed his outfit with a white button-up shirt, a white pocket square and shiny black shoes.

His facial hair looked perfectly groomed and dyed a dark brown - a style choice that has also garnered Travolta new found attention on social media.

Travolta often posed with one arm wrapped around Ella's waist as the father-daughter duo braved the red carpet together.

The actress, who stars as 'Doris' in Travolta's upcoming movie, looked elegant in a white dress with a bright blue floral pattern.

It had a blue satin bow on the front and a flattering halter neckline.

Ella's brunette tresses were styled in an updo with pieces left out to frame her face.

Travolta shares Ella with his late wife, Kelly Preston. They are also parents to sons Ben, 15, and the late Jett, who died in 2009 aged 16 after suffering a seizure during a family vacation in the Bahamas.

The father and daughter also posed for photos with Propeller One-Way Night Coach stars Kelly Eviston-Quinnett and Clark Shotwell, who play a mother and son in the film. 

Travolta then reunited with another one of his film's stars - glamorous model Alina Rose Armstrong.

He flashed a wide smile as he and the blonde beauty snapped photos together ahead of the screening in NYC.

According to the official synopsis, Propeller One-Way Night Coach tells the story of a 'young airplane enthusiast Jeff (newcomer Clark Shotwell) and his mother (Kelly Eviston-Quinnett) who set off on a one-way cross-country odyssey to Hollywood, which transforms a simple flight into the trip of a lifetime. 

The movie is based on the 1997 children's book of the same name that Travolta wrote.

The book was also a tribute to Travolta's lifelong passion for aviation and was inspired by his own childhood memories of watching the planes take off from LaGuardia airport in New York. 

The film adaptation made its world premiere at the 2026 Cannes Film Festival over the weekend.

But it was Travolta's eye-catching beret and dyed beard combo that stole the show at the festival.

He was mercilessly roasted by fans for wearing not one but three versions of the French-style cap at various Cannes events.

And on Monday, Travolta broke his silence on the chatter surrounding his newfound love of berets during an interview with CNN.

He said that there was an important reason for why he wore the chic headgear for his directorial debut.

'The old school directors wore berets and the glasses. And I thought, that's what I'm doing,' he told the outlet, referencing his own turn behind the camera directing Propeller One-Way Night Coach.

He added that the striking look would help him remember the event in the future. 'I've been around for over 50 years doing movies, but I can't tell, when I look back, the difference between the events.'

'And I said, "I'm a director this time. You're an actor, play the part of a director. Look like an old school director,"' he said, adding that he 'looked up pictures' of famous filmmakers before him.

'I'm gonna do an homage to being a director,' he said of his catchy red carpet look.

'So I'm gonna play the part of being a director and then when I look back, I'll know, "Oh, that was Propeller One-Way Night Coach, that was Cannes, that was when I won the Palme d'Or." And I will have vividness of it.'

While he didn't name the specific cinematic idol he took inspiration from, the actor might have been channeling The Godfather director Francis Ford Coppola, who is known for wearing berets.

Legendary Swedish film director Ingmar Bergman was also fond of the head gear.

Travolta's beret streak started on his way to the event, as he rocked a navy version of the hat while piloting his own plane to Cannes with his daughter Ella on Friday.

'Big day, big night in Cannes. Stay tuned!' he captioned an Instagram video showing the journey.  

Later on Friday and then Saturday, the actor turned heads twice as he stepped out with new versions of the eye-catching look. 

He first arrived on the red carpet in a beige beret and rocking a freshly dyed beard.

Travolta later modeled the kooky headwear again, this time wearing a black beret with matching spectacles, at a photocall for his new movie Propeller One-Way Night Coach.

Not content with his bookish new look drawing attention, Travolta was also seen pulling a series of zany poses on the red carpet, flashing the peace sign and dramatically throwing his hands into the air.

His transformation was swiftly roasted by fans online who declared: 'Who is that?'

Others wrote: 'The hat is fine but what's with the beard? He's in his 70's and his beard is black lmao.'

'Had some cosmetic work. Looks 30 years younger. 

'It’s weird when 70-year-old men dye their beards black.'

'It must be so nice to have so much money you can dress like a surrealist painter on the Left Bank of Paris in the 1930s.'

'WHO is that and what have they done with John Travolta?!

'Looks like she's standing next to his Madame Tussaud's wax statue.' 

Others praised the star's new look, writing: 'Wow. He looks like a real artist now' and 'Man's still fine with all them wrinkles. Hello pappy.'
