Mimi Rogers made a rare public appearance on September 20, 2026, with Tom Cruise‘s first wife attending the world premiere of What Happened to Doris? during Fantastic Fest 2026 in Texas.
The 70-year-old actress rocked a Canadian tuxedo for the event, pairing the denim look with snake-skin stiletto boots and a grey crew neck tee.
The actress, who turned 70 in January, highlighted her natural beauty with a bronzed look and pink lip gloss, while she wore her dark brown hair loose.
Mimi posed with Heather Graham, who stars alongside Mimi in the new horror film, based on the Doris Bither case which was turned into a film in 1982’s The Entity.

Doris Bither was a single mom living in Culver City, Los Angeles in 1974 who reported being violently attacked and sexually assaulted by an invisible presence in front of her children.
Parapsychology researchers from UCLA investigated the home and documented claims of poltergeist activity and strange light phenomena.
Mimi and Tom

In 1990, shortly after her divorce from Tom was finalized, Mimi met producer and assistant director Chris Ciaffa, and they quickly struck up a romance.
They dated for 13 years before tying the knot in March 2003 at the Beverly Hills courthouse.

“I think in a relationship if there’s a lot of ‘it will be great if only these three things changed,’ you’re sort of asking for trouble. Because sometimes people change, sometimes they don’t. So I think at the end of the day, you got to like each other that way you are, and be really good friends.”
Mimi and Chris welcomed two children: daughter Lucy, and son Charlie.
