Oscars 2026: Michael B. Jordan, Kylie Jenner and More Who Changed Their Looks for After-Parties
This date night sure beats the office Christmas party.
Jason Bateman and his wife of 24 years Amanda Anka stepped out for the Vanity Fair Oscars after-party after attending the 2026 Academy Awards together.
The couple—who share kids Francesca, 19, and Maple, 14—were all smiles as they posed on the red carpet alongside pals Jimmy Kimmel and wife Molly McNearney and Will Arnett.
Amanda, 57, stunned in a strapless black sheer gown covered in sparkling polkadot and striped embellishments, which she wore with her hair down in beachy waves. Meanwhile Jason, also 57, who showed off his burgeoning beard, donned a classic tux.
The couple's date night comes after Jason reflected on the positive impact that Amanda has had on his life, including encouraging him to curtail his partying after landing his leading role on Arrested Development back in 2003.
“Amanda and I definitely had a few negotiations about the point at which the [partying] spigot was going to completely turn off,” he told The Hollywood Reporter in February. “She’d be like, ‘This drip, drip, drip is annoyingly unpredictable, Jason.’”
The Zootopia 2 star, who is now sober, added, “She didn’t demand that I completely absolve, but that was sort of the back-and-forth, and I was like, well, I feel like my [sobriety] ETA is six months away, but if I could land this plane now, it would alleviate a lot of the tension, so let’s just f--king do it.”
Jason went on to share that he knew that his hard-partying ways would have to come to an end by the time he became a father, especially if he wanted to continue working.

“I was conscious the whole time of wanting to get a lot of these boxes checked before I became a father,” he said, “and a guy with a career that I not only wanted but had a feeling I might be able to get it if I just got the right job.”
Jason and Amanda weren't the only stars to step out after the Oscars, of course. Keep reading for all the stars to attend the Vanity Fair Oscars party...
