Mel Gibson was spotted in a luxurious restaurant in Budapest
According to the latest Facebook post of Prime Steak & Wine, American actor, film director, producer, screenwriter, Academy Award and Golden Globe winner Mel Gibson is currently in Budapest.
In the past several years, numerous actors, musicians, and other celebrities have visited the Hungarian capital for a vacation, to film their next movie or to give a concert. As we reported, Luis Fonsi, the singer of the world hit Despacito, posted Instagram stories from Budapest in September, and Rod Stewart presumably gave a secret concert in the Hungarian capital. In October, Academy Award nominee Willem Dafoe and Avengers star Mark Ruffalo visited the Four Seasons Hotel.
The most recent addition to the list of actors who have been spotted in Budapest is Mel Gibson. On Thursday,
the Hollywood star decided to have dinner in Budapest’s best fine dining steakhouse, the award-winning Prime Steak & Wine on Sas Street, near St. Stephen’s Basilica.
“It was an honour to host Mel Gibson, two-time Oscar and Golden Globe winning actor, filmmaker, and producer tonight…,” wrote Prime Steak & Wine in a Facebook post.

This is not the Hollywood star’s first visit to the Hungarian capital, and he usually travels here to shoot movies, writes Blikk. He has not shared any information about his visit yet, but it might be connected to Lethal Weapon 5. It was recently revealed that after starring in the first Lethal Weapon movie more than 30 years ago,
Mel Gibson is going to direct and star in the fifth − and likely final − instalment of the Warner Bros. action franchise.
According to Variety, the fifth part of the action franchise has been in development for several years. Richard Donner, who directed and produced all four previous Lethal Weapon films, had been working on developing the fifth instalment, but he died in July 2021. Donner’s death almost brought an end to the development of the sequel. However, at an event in London, Gibson mentioned that Donner’s wish was that Gibson would take over directing duties from him after he passed away. Lethal Weapon 5 does not have a release date yet.
The first Lethal Weapon came out in 1987, and it was one of the first studio movies to establish Gibson as a Hollywood star in America.
