Amy Poehler is all smiles in New York City!

The 47-year-old actress was spotted in a black leather jacket and Bordeaux boots while leaving a studio on Friday (May 10) in NYC.

The comedian recently made her directorial debut with Wine Country, in which she also stars, alongside fellow Saturday Night Live alums Maya Rudolph, Rachel Dratch, Ana Gasteyer, and Tina Fey.

“I had been excitedly thinking and talking and looking to direct a feature, and then like most good things, it happened a little organically,” she told Indie Wire of the film’s origins. “We were on our own trip, and I turned to Emily Spivey, who ended up writing the script with Liz Cackowski, and I said, ‘This could be a movie.’ And I just forced deadlines on people until it became one.”

Wine Country is streaming now on Netflix.

FYI: Amy is wearing L’Agence jeans.

Amy Poehler Accuses Meghan Markle of Copying Her Son’s Name on 'Late Night'

Amy Poehler stopped by Late Night with Seth Meyers on Thursday (May 9) and talked about Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan Markle naming their first baby boy, Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor.

The 47-year-old actress-director has a 10-year-old son named Archie and is cool with the royal baby sharing the name: “I have an Archie,” she said. “I have to say we’re just so hungry for good news, like just a baby being born and knowing its name, everybody’s huddled by the TV – ‘a baby was born and they named it!’”

“I mean I love William and Harry, our gen, we love William and Harry,” Amy continued. “I have two sons, you want them to be like William and Harry. You want them to be friends but also different and one of them is in some kind of royal airforce. I have a ginger… actually, now that you say it, I really feel like they’re copying me.”

Amy also talked about her film Wine Country and opened up about her frustration while watching the movie Free Solo: “It should be called white non-sense this movie,” Amy said.
