Now married with a daughter, Richards has largely given up acting and is a successful artist nowadays. She had a brief appearance in the 1997 Jurassic Park sequel The Lost World, and her last on-screen role was in the 2013 TV movie Battledogs.
Her former co-star Joseph Mazzello, who played her younger brother Tim in Jurassic Park, was not at the premiere. Now 34, he's enjoyed an acting career into adulthood, most notably in the 2010 hit The Social Network and in the upcoming Queen biopic Bohemian Rhapsody.
