Alicia Vikander looked stunning as she walked the red carpet alongside her boyfriend and co-star for the London premiere of their movie The Light Between Oceans.

The 28-year-old Oscar-winning actress stole the spotlight in her delicate blue floral gown with a peplum skirt.

Her handsome beau Michael, 39, cut a dapper figure in a slick suit and tie as he cosied up to Alicia while posing for pictures.

Also on the red carpet was actress Florence Clery, who plays the on-screen couple’s daughter in the film.

The couple first met on the set of the set of the romantic period drama, which was written and directed by Blue Valentine’s Derek Cianfrance.

Michael and Alicia have enjoyed a low-profile relationship since meeting on the film’s set in 2014 but the Swedish actress said in a recent interview that they have “never hidden the fact we’re a couple”.

Speaking to Porter magazine, she added: “He’s extremely hardworking. He was like, ‘Give me something new! I just need a new idea. I need to do it differently.” I just thought that was cool.”

The adaptation of ML Stedman’s 2012 novel of the same name also stars Rachel Weisz, Bryan Brown, Jack Thompson and Florence Clery.

The Light Between Oceans originally premiered at the 73rd Venice International Film Festival in September.

It follows the emotional story of Australian First World War veteran Tom Sherbourne, now a lighthouse keeper, who struggles to have a baby with his wife Isabel Graysmark.

They are gifted with what appears to be a miracle baby washed up in a boat wreck, but their blissful family life is soon thwarted.

The Light Between Oceans is set for release in the UK on November 4.

Financial thriller "The Accountant" tallied $24.7 million in earnings to score number one at the box office in its debut week, an industry group estimated Sunday.

The Warner Bros film centers on an autistic mathematics savant who capitalizes on his fondness for numbers by becoming an undercover forensic accountant for criminal organizations.

Starring Ben Affleck and Anna Kendrick, the film opened to mixed reviews but yielded more than forecasters expected.

Stand-up comedy flick "Kevin Hart: What Now?" by Universal drew in $11.98 million in its opening weekend, narrowly edging the psychological thriller "The Girl on the Train" to nab second place, according to Exhibitor Relations.

The third-place film took in $11.97 million, dropping from its first place finish last week. The Universal movie based on a best-selling novel stars Emily Blunt as a depressed, alcoholic divorcee who witnesses something odd as she rides a commuter train and ends up launching a missing persons investigation.

Tim Burton's fantasy tale "Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children" fell to fourth with $8.9 million, cumulatively earning $65.8 million over three weeks.

Burton's latest movie, from 20th Century Fox and Chernin Entertainment, tells the story of a headmistress (Eva Green) at an orphanage in Wales full of odd youngsters with magical powers.

Mark Wahlberg's oil-rig thriller "Deepwater Horizon" from Lionsgate came in at number five with $6.4 million.

The film directed by Peter Berg and also starring Kurt Russell, John Malkovich, Kate Hudson and Gina Rodriguez follows the deadly 2010 Transocean and BP oil rig explosion and spill in the Gulf of Mexico.

Rounding out the top 10 films were:

"Storks" ($5.6 million)

"The Magnificent Seven" ($5.2 million)

"Middle School: The Worst Years of My Life" ($4.3 million)

"Sully" ($2.96 million)

"The Birth of a Nation" ($2.7 million)
