Sean Penn and Leila George were spotted enjoying a romantic dinner date just days after the two were spotted kissing on a beach in Hawaii. The 56-year-old actor and the 24-year-old actress were spotted on a dinner date in Malibu on Friday, 7 October.

According to the Daily Mail, the pair was spotted on a romantic dinner date just a day after they made their first red carpet debut at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. For the outing, the Mother, May I Sleep with Danger? actress was dressed in a black jacket and trousers, which she paired with a baseball cap, while the Milk actor sported a blue checkered shirt and khaki pants.

The duo sparked romance rumours after kissing photos of the two surfaced the internet on 5 October. The couple were caught kissing while vacationing on Oahu island, where Penn owns a beachfront home. The news website had reported that Penn and George decided to head back when they were later joined by Australian actress Gracie Otto.

Australian-born George is the daughter of actress Greta Scacchi, 56, and actor Vincent D'Onofrio, 57, who stars in the series Law & Order: Criminal Intent. Unlike her parents, George acting career is only just beginning as she makes her screen debut in the Lifetime TV movie Mother, May I Sleep with Danger? alongside James Franco and Tori Spelling.

The upcoming actress has studied her craft at various prestigious acting schools across the globe. George completed a course at The Australian Film School in Sydney when she was 19. She has also spent two years studying in the Lee Strasberg Institute in New York.
