Mario Cantone made a stylish appearance at the Turner Classic Movies (TCM) Film Festival, showcasing his love for classic cinema while dressed in an elegant ensemble by designer Gustav Moscoso. The actor and comedian shared his red carpet moment with fans through an Instagram post, expressing his enthusiasm for the prestigious film event.
In the image shared on his Instagram account, Cantone can be seen posing confidently on the red carpet, dressed in what appears to be a sophisticated outfit designed by Gustav Moscoso. His caption, “Last nights red carpet @tcm Film Festival wearing @gustavmoscoso I live for #tcmff,” clearly conveys his passion for the celebration of classic cinema.
This isn’t the first time Cantone has worn Gustav Moscoso’s designs for important events. Just a few months ago in February, he attended the Blue Jacket Fashion Show for Zero Prostate Cancer awareness, also wearing Moscoso’s work. In that Instagram post, he wrote, “Tonight at the @bluejacketfashionshow for @zeroprostatecancer Dressed by and Wearing the brilliant @gustavmoscoso Always a great and important night. Get yer ass checked!”
The consistent collaboration between Cantone and Moscoso demonstrates a strong fashion partnership that continues to serve the actor well at high-profile events.
He is perhaps best known for his role as Anthony Marentino in the HBO series “Sex and the City” and its subsequent films. He has continued this character in the sequel series “And Just Like That…” on HBO Max (now simply Max).
Cantone’s recent Instagram activity indicates he’s actively involved in the upcoming third season of “And Just Like That…”, which is set to premiere on May 29th. Just weeks ago, he shared multiple posts promoting the new season, including one where he mentioned, “Season 3 @justlikethatmax May 29.”
In one particularly notable post, he shared a clip from the show with the caption: “@justlikethatmax Party Tip number 4: Bring a date with a hot accent. Tony & Maria. @sebastiano.pigazzi,” giving fans a glimpse into his character’s storyline for the upcoming season.
Cantone has been married to musical theater director Jerry Dixon since 2011, although they had been together for over 20 years before that. The couple’s relationship was evident in Cantone’s Valentine’s Day post this year, where he wrote a heartfelt message: “Happy Valentine’s Evening.. Like every year the evening is carefully planned. To dine To toast To sip To dance. I know you. I live you. @jdixonnyc.”
Before his television fame, Cantone established himself as a standout stand-up comedian with his energetic performances that often included musical impressions and character work. His comedy background continues to influence his public persona and performances.
His comedic talents were highlighted in a December 2023 Instagram post about his appearance on “Gilbert Gottfried’s Amazing Colossal Podcast,” described as a “holiday presentation with friend and fan favorite Mario Cantone” where they discussed “awkward child actors, depressing Christmas carols, holiday-themed horror films” among other topics.
Cantone’s attendance at the TCM Film Festival isn’t surprising given his appreciation for performance arts and classic entertainment. The TCM Film Festival is an annual celebration of classic movies that brings together film enthusiasts, historians, celebrities, and fans for screenings, special events, and panel discussions.
By using the hashtag #tcmff and declaring “I live for” the event, Cantone demonstrates his genuine enthusiasm for classic cinema, adding another dimension to his public persona beyond his acting and comedy work.
As Mario Cantone continues to balance his work on “And Just Like That…” with other projects and public appearances, his presence at events like the TCM Film Festival highlights his multifaceted career and personal interests beyond his most famous roles.
