Description
Tessa Thompson is captured on a busy studio set for W Magazine Vol. I 2026 Best Performances, photographed by Tyrone Lebon with styling by Sara Moonves. She is seated in a director chair wearing an elaborate, voluminous red ruffled gown with a dramatic train, holding a beverage with a straw. Her hair is styled in a high, sculptural updo, and she wears black heels. The background reveals behind-the-scenes production equipment, including heavy lighting stands, cases, and crew members. The lighting is direct and flash-illuminated, capturing a candid, documentary-style moment behind the scenes of a major magazine cover shoot.
