Let us break your concentration with Samuel L. Jackson's red carpet arrival.

On March 12, the Pulp Fiction star hit the red carpet at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, Calif. for the 2023 Oscars. Donning a silver suit jacket, Jackson reminded us why he was one of Hollywood's brightest stars.

The actor showed up in a metallic silver suit that shined bright on the cream-colored carpet for the big event. Underneath the jacket he rocked a white button-up with a matching silver bowtie. He paired the look with black slacks and black dress shoes and looked sophisticated as ever with clear glasses.

Jackson was in attendance at the 95th Academy Awards, as he was previously tapped as one of the evening's big presenters.

Additional presenters include Harrison Ford, Halle Berry, Antonio Banderas, Emily Blunt, Jessica Chastain, Ariana DeBose, Andrew Garfield, Hugh Grant, Salma Hayek Pinault, Dwayne Johnson, Michael B. Jordan, and Nicole Kidman, among several others.

Of course, Jackson is no stranger to the Hollywood event. Not only was the Marvel actor nominated in 1995 for Best Supporting Actor for his work in Pulp Fiction, but he also received an Honorary Academy Award in 2022.

On being honored after 50 years in the industry, Jackson noted in his acceptance speech, "Thank you Governors for this incredible honor. Who knew a little kid from Chattanooga, Tennessee watching movies, wishing he could be here and get the votes of people who run an organization like this [could say], 'Hey, I deserve something like this.' Thank you so very much."

He continued, "When I got this call last year, it was totally unexpected, but I guarantee you, this thing is going to be cherished."
