Hollywood veteran and all around multi-hyphenate Salma Hayek is adding yet another title to her résumé this spring: swimsuit model.
Sports Illustrated announced May 13 that Hayek would grace the cover of the magazine’s flagship Swimsuit Issue. She is one of four cover stars along with Olympic gymnast Jordan Chiles, model and former NCAA gymnast Olivia Dunne and model and entrepreneur Lauren Chan.
Shot in Hayek’s native Mexico, the cover features the actress semi-nude in some shots and sporting various bikinis in others. She’s pictured laying on the beach, in front of zebras grazing, and frolicking in a pool.
At 58, she is among a newer trend adopted by the magazine of featuring older models. In 2023, the Swimsuit Issue featured Martha Stewart in a white one-piece at age 81 and in 2022, 74-year-old Maye Musk, a model and mother to Elon Musk, graced the magazine pages.
