Kevin Costner touched down at Marco Polo airport on Monday and was seen heading to Venice Film Festival.
The actor and director, 69, looked in high spirits as he arrived and climbed into a waiting water taxi to whisk him to the island city.
He donned a beige linen shirt and matching trousers, with a light jacket over the top and oversized black shades.
Kevin is at the film festival for the premiere of his film Horizon: An American Saga -Chapter Two, which will take place on Saturday.
The epic Western was directed, produced and co-written by Kevin, who also stars in the film alongside Sienna Miller, Sam Worthington and Jena Malone.
It is the second part in a planned four movies centring on the exploration of the American West, following Chapter One being released in June.
However, the first film was slammed by critics and failed to ignite at the box office, with Chapter 2’s theatrical release now being delayed indefinitely.
Kevin financed the film himself, admitting to putting $38 million of his own funds into the project after spending decades trying to find a studio to make the film and even took out a loan against his Santa Barbara home.
Kevin shares Cayden, 17, Hayes, 15, and Grace, 13, with ex-wife Christine Baumgartner.
The former couple were married from 2004 until their divorce was finalized earlier this year in February.
He is also father to Annie, 40, Lily, 36, and Joe, 36 – whom he welcomed with ex-wife, Cindy Silva. He also shares son Liam, 26, with ex Bridget Rooney.
A few months earlier in April, Jewel gushed that Kevin is a ‘great pers on’ while talking to Elle. ‘[But] the public fascination is intense for sure.’
When the pair were first linked late last year after spending time on the British Virgin Islands, photos also emerged to show the two cozying up together. At one point, the singer could be seen sitting on Kevin’s lap.
A source told TMZ at the time, ‘There was definitely something going on. They were flirty, and when they were together, it was like they both just lit up.’
‘You could tell they were trying to be discreet, but anybody who saw them could tell something was going on.’
And last month in May, she once again addressed Kevin Costner relationship rumors during an interview with People.
‘I found love, and I’m not talking about Kevin’s. I’m so happy, irrelevant of a man. It has nothing to do with being in a relationship or not being in one. I’m just happy,’ the performer admitted, adding, ‘I’m good.’
Jewel touched on the topic of dating in the spotlight, and referencing to her brief fling with actor, Sean Penn.
‘Even when I was dating Sean really early on, nobody knew I was dating him. I wouldn’t do a red carpet with him. I was just very prideful.’
‘I wasn’t famous and my album was flopping, like failing spectacularly. I remember going to the Venice Film Festival with him, and I could have done the red carpet and received a lot of media attention.’
She added, ‘People would’ve said, “Who is this girl?” and I could have plugged my album. But I’d rather be unknown the rest of my life than have that be the way the world was introduced to me.’
‘I don’t need fame that badly. I need to be fulfilled. I need to be happy. I need to be a songwriter. I wasn’t thirsty in that way.’
Jewel eventually married rodeo cowboy, Ty Murray, in 2008 but the two divorced in 2014 and share son, Kase, 12.
Costner’s ex-wife, Christine Baumgartner, has since moved on following their split and is currently dating Josh Connor – whom she was romantically linked to earlier this year.
