John Travolta stepped on his first red carpet since the death of son Jett to promote his new film, Old Dogs, in which his 9-year-old daughter, Ella Bleu, makes her screen debut.
Travolta was joined at the Hollywood premiere Monday night by some of Tinseltown's top names, including Robin Williams, Tom Hanks and Seth Green.
"John just makes you feel wonderful, there's a thing about him that you see him and you start to go 'Wow', it's a warmth," Williams said of his Old Dogs co-star. "I've kind of joked that he's a human panda, you see him and you go, 'Ahhhh' and he's very sweet that way, there's a kindness that I think radiates from him."
