In the new action-thriller Thompson's character embarks on a journey to scatter her late husband's ashes on a frozen lake in northern Minnesota. During that journey, she stumbles upon a troubling scene where a teenage girl is held captive in a remote location with no cell reception or nearby help.

For the event, the veteran Hollywood A-lister wore a white two-piece ensemble adorned with a cherry print for the event. Gaia, standing slightly taller than her mother, opted for a coordinated look with a sheer, sparkly white top and matching shorts. Bearing a strong resemblance to Thompson, she smiled alongside her mom as they posed for photographers.

Thompson shares Gaia with husband Greg Wise. The couple are also parents to son Tindyebwa "Tindy" Agaba, whom they adopted from Rwanda.
