Sigourney Weaver, 71, enjoys a beach day with her mini-me daughter Charlotte, 30

Sigourney Weaver made it a family day on Sunday when she took some time out of lockdown to enjoy a beach day in Malibu.

The 71-year-old Aliens actress was standing next to her 30-year-old mini-me daughter Charlotte Simpson who was dressed in a red swimsuit that showed off her lean figure and array of tattoos.

Also along for the fun was Weaver’s husband of 38 years, Jim Simpson.

Movie siren Sigourney wore a black tank top that showed off her sculpted arms and thin waist thanks to a vegan diet.

The Working Girl actress also had on a dark blue thin wet suit; she pulled down the top portion and tied around her slender waist as she stood in the ocean. 

The Hollywood veteran, who has also appeared in the Avatar movies, had her hair pulled back, wore no makeup and added oversized black sunglasses.

She also put her many tattoos on display on her arms, hip and legs.

And the actress – she played Sigourney’s daughter in the 2002 film The Guys – added fun red cat-eye sunglasses to match her suit. 

Also present was Sigourney’s longtime husband who wore a wet suit and carried flippers in his left hand.

He also held hands with his wife, in a sweet show of unity after nearly four decades together.

The Event Horizon director looked like a silver fox with his gray hair.

Jim is a Hollywood veteran as he has worked on the Spice Girls movie and Tales From The Crypt.

This sighting comes after the actress – whose father Pat Weaver created the Today show – appeared on the February issue of InStyle.

Weaver was pictured wearing a light blue striped T-shirt with a Donald Duck patch on the upper left side of her chest.

The New York resident was also seen wearing a form-fitting pair of blue jeans to compliment her top.

Her curly brunette hair was styled loose and she wore a single necklace and silver bracelet for the photoshoot.

Speaking with reference to her dressed-down appearance on the publication’s cover, Weaver spoke about how she felt fashion trends would change after the end of the global pandemic; the actress noted that the future differences would be fine with her.

‘Maybe dressing up will become more personal, more individual — and more comfortable, which I think is a great thing,’ she said.

Weaver discussed multiple topics during her interview with the fashion publication, including her beginnings as an actress and how she reacted to her former acting professors dismissing her talent as a performer, which she has reportedly taken as a learning experience.

‘They said that I didn’t have the talent to be in the business, that they didn’t think I should be at the school. It took me many years to get over it….if anyone reads this who’s an acting student, do not do what I did—don’t take it so seriously and actually believe them.’ 

The three-time Academy Award nominee then spoke about how she proved her detractors wrong and how her subsequent success as an actress has allowed her to modify the parts that she is given, stating that: ‘I often have…input.’

Weaver elaborated: ‘That’s both the advantage and the disadvantage of working with me.’

The Paul actress also gave her opinion on relationship advice and how she believed in looking inward when facing issues with a partner; she has been married to stage director Jim Simpson since 1984 and the two share a daughter named Charlotte, aged 30. 

The actress opined: ‘I’ve always believed what they say in the psychology magazines—that whatever is wrong with your current relationship, you’ll reexperience it in the next one. So why not stick with this great guy who you found and work things out with him?’

Weaver also discussed how her stage name was not the result of a larger play about changing her identity, which many sources have speculated about; the actress was born as Susan Alexandra Weaver.

‘I didn’t realize what a huge step it was to change my name, or what it probably said about me wanting to go my own way. I didn’t see it in that context. I just didn’t like being called Susie…and look, now some people call me Siggy, which is just like Susie. You can’t escape your destiny.’ 

The February issue of InStyle will be available on newsstands, on Amazon and for digital download on January 15th.
