“It was actually one of the most insane experiences of my life,” says Chase Infiniti. The 25-year-old actor is still riding a wave of adrenaline from the prior night’s premiere of her new movie, “One Battle After Another.” She stars alongside Leonardo DiCaprio, Sean Penn, Teyana Taylor, Benicio Del Toro and Regina Hall in the Paul Thomas Anderson film, which lands in theaters on Sept. 26.
For the film’s Los Angeles premiere, Infiniti was dressed in a Louis Vuitton custom champagne halter embroidered gown and platform sandals, by stylists Wayman and Micah, with hair by Coree Moreno and makeup by Amber Dreadon.

“I got ready at my hotel and my team was so great at creating a very calm environment and making sure that I felt supported. I just tried to stay calm in my hotel room as much as possible,” Infiniti said. “I had my family pop in right at the end, and we kind of had a little celebration toast.”
The custom Louis Vuitton gown had her feeling like she was “living the Hollywood dream in every way and shape possible,” she said. She opted to keep hair and makeup natural so she could feel as true to herself as possible.
“Hair wise, I just really wanted to keep my curls, keep as much of me as possible, and just slightly elevate the style to how I would normally wear it,” she said.
The premiere was the first time she’d seen the film in its entirety, and with an audience at that.
“It was so special getting to share that with everybody else in the cast, and getting to hear the parts that people were laughing at and that people were crying at, where the cheers were, where this overall excitement was for the movie,” she said.
For Infiniti, who starred as Jake Gyllenhaal and Ruth Negga’s daughter in the series “Presumed Innocent,” getting to star in an action film immediately interested her — that, and the A-list cast she’d be acting alongside.
“It’s mind boggling how much talent there is and how everybody in this film is literally a beast in the entertainment industry,” she said. “I was just trying to absorb everything.”
