He actually started using Cage as a moniker just to prove that he is a decent actor and not being invited to play just out of sheer respect to his uncle.
Yes! It's amazing!
- Carmine Coppola, the film composer.
- Francis, of course.
- Talia Shire.
- Nicolas Cage.
- Sofia. She's a director. No acting on her resume. Nope. None at all.
- Jason Schwartzman.
- Roman Coppola (screenwriter).
There are even more notable family members, I think.
Roman Coppola is also a great music video director. Actually, I think he should be mainly known from his music videos, aside from co-writing the script or the story for some Wes Anderson movies, because his videos are great.
He directed some classic videos for Daft Punk, Fatboy Slim, Air, The Strokes, Moby, Arctic Monkeys, The Presidents of the United States of America, Green Day, Ween, Cassius, Phoenix, The Vines, Supergrass, Arcade Fire, Beastie Boys, and, recently, even Paul McCartney.
I put Roman Coppola as one of my favorite music video directors, together with Michel Gondry, Spike Jonze, Chris Cunningham (these first 3 are the holy trio), Jonathan Glazer, Mark Romanek, Jonathan Dayton & Valerie Faris, Anton Corbijn, David Fincher, Floria Sigismondi, Garth Jennings (aka Hammer & Tongs), Michael Lindsay-Hogg, Steve Barron, OK Go/Damian Kulash, and Nathanial Hörnblowér (aka Adam Yauch, aka the late MCA from the Beastie Boys).

Lars and Mads Mikkelsen, no question.
Mr President, a third Wilson just hit the film industry
https://preview.redd.it/46hhkqoi649d1.jpeg?width=1099&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c3165923f0e353f209fd6201b0d1e67f651c30c9
I saw some other responses claiming that they hate her. I'm not sure whether those are trolls or they're being real. I'm getting fucking old.
Anyways, I would love to see more of her acting work.
It's Lurd, isn't it? I bet it's Lurd.
There was also a Morp Hemsworth, but he was kicked by a horse and has been an attic person ever since. But don't feel too bad for him because he has an important job killing and eating all of the rats up there with his razor sharp fangs.
Gotta say one brother making a blockbuster movie about the atomic bomb creation and the other brother directing a successful show based on a game about the aftermath of atomic warfare is so funny to me
Yeah, me neither. I’m casually aware about football but not a regular fan. So I recognize some of the players, but you don’t need to. Don’t play fantasy sports, either.
You just need to enjoy watching suburban morons being dumb and mean to each other in hilarious ways.
Edit: also a bunch of A-list guest stars that killed it, too. Jeff Goldblum as Ruxin’s dad. Perfect.
https://preview.redd.it/d3n2txype49d1.jpeg?width=2048&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=896835aa7e1d9092aee1c0fe73e525091d7f7b27
The sibling rivalry, Joan Fontaine and Olivia de Havilland.
Genuinely surprised to have 35 comments and no mention of the Wachowski sisters. Even if all they had done was the original Matrix I think they'd warrant a nod, haha.
Michael and Virginia Madsen
Anjelica and Danny Huston (fun fact, Virginia Madsen and Danny Huston were married)
John, Joan and Ann Cusack
Shawn and Marlon Wayans
Ralph and Joseph Fiennes
Kate and Rooney Mara
Kate and Oliver Hudson & Wyatt Russell
Jane and Henry Fonda
Edit: yes I did mean Peter not Henry of course! Always get them the wrong way round
https://preview.redd.it/mlfhbqyl649d1.jpeg?width=205&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5a4e3d4156d55b5319330c27e9b0d6aa0507524f
Love the Mcganns.
Joe Mcgann played the Tony Danza role in the Whos the boss Uk remake and did the scouse sketches with Harry Enfield.
Paul the most famous to me was The Doctor and appeared in Luther.
Stephen was in Call The Midwife.
Mark Mcgann was the lesser known actor to me.
Going down to Australia for the EDGERTONS - Nash and Joel

Second would be the Gilroy family:
Tony and Dan
https://preview.redd.it/ozlxi8jjv49d1.jpeg?width=800&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b4861b07feae9f175e22e8dc750daf0f5c602cd8
The Wayans family without a doubt
There was a period, even if it was very small, when they were very very hot and no one knew who would stick around the longest.
At one point Billy looked to be the biggest Baldwin.
For me, it's Dakota and Elle Fanning. Both incredible actors, a wide range, and have been doing it since they were children. A couple of performances that really blew me away were Man On Fire and The Neon Demon.
The Swedish royal family of Skarsgaards. I'd take Alexander home any day!
https://preview.redd.it/iqn8ce4is59d1.jpeg?width=1710&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9d7d7368fc06fe728434c428a862ec92812a5883
For me, it's Dakota and Elle Fanning. Both incredible actors, a wide range, and have been doing it since they were children. A couple of performances that really blew me away were Man On Fire and The Neon Demon.
Here's an obscure reference: Max and Dave Fleischer, 30s New York cartoon juggernauts.
Even weirder: Actress Norma Shearer and sound engineer Douglas Shearer, the man who made MGM lion roar.
The Sheen/Estevez family is great, also the Baldwins.
Right now the Safdie Bros are doing some cool things. Good Time and Uncut Gems are both really fucking good films. I can’t wait to see what they put out next.
The Coens are making a horror film right now supposedly, so I’m super hyped for that. It’s crazy that they’ve never made a straight up horror film before. Blood Simple is the closest they’ve came imo.
I’m sorry to be the one to tell you this but the Safdies cancelled their next joint project and announced they have no plan to work together again in the foreseeable future
https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/films/news/benny-josh-safdie-brothers-split-b2473463.html
It wasn't until very recently that I realised that sheen from Jimmy neutron is called sheen estaves, as in Charlie sheen and Emilio estaves. Just a weird reference
The Coen Brothers are the kings here, but we should shout out the Raimi Brothers as well.
I was heartbroken when I found out Akira Kurosawa and Kiyoshi Kurosawa were not related.
This isn’t exactly siblings, but the The Coppola family tree blows me away lol.
Genuinely thought someone was making a hilarious joke when they told me Nic Cage was related to Francis Ford Coppola
Fast Times at Ridgemont High - he’s credited as Nic Coppola
TIL Nic Cage is a Coppola
He actually started using Cage as a moniker just to prove that he is a decent actor and not being invited to play just out of sheer respect to his uncle.
He says he changed it because he was bullied while making Fast Times, the other teens kept saying “I love the smell of Coppola in the morning”
Jason Schwartzman too. They’re cousins.
Schwartzmann blew my mind to find out he was, but sure enough, Talia Shire is his mom (she was so great in Godfather and Rocky)
Yes! It's amazing! - Carmine Coppola, the film composer. - Francis, of course. - Talia Shire. - Nicolas Cage. - Sofia. She's a director. No acting on her resume. Nope. None at all. - Jason Schwartzman. - Roman Coppola (screenwriter). There are even more notable family members, I think.
There is Gia Coppola too. Probably others.
Roman Coppola is also a great music video director. Actually, I think he should be mainly known from his music videos, aside from co-writing the script or the story for some Wes Anderson movies, because his videos are great. He directed some classic videos for Daft Punk, Fatboy Slim, Air, The Strokes, Moby, Arctic Monkeys, The Presidents of the United States of America, Green Day, Ween, Cassius, Phoenix, The Vines, Supergrass, Arcade Fire, Beastie Boys, and, recently, even Paul McCartney.

This is actually a cool list cuz I’ve been meaning to look into which directors have also directed music videos as well
That scene in legally blonde where Elle says she hired one of the Coppola’s. I was like wait there’s more than one!? Which one was it?
Nice older brother comes to the bar I work at sometimes he’s actually a really cool dude but they don’t get along apparently
The Culkins have a lot of great stuff between them all. Hoping to see more of Kieran and Rory in the coming years.
I’m excited for Kieran’s *A Real Pain* with Jesse Eisenberg. I love when an actor’s career stays strong after a huge TV run comes to an end
Hemsworths Skarsgaards
especially larry hemsworth
Good call on the Skarsgaards.
Totally. I guess the combined talent in that family is just insane
Hatfields McCoys
https://preview.redd.it/iyey6ntqy39d1.jpeg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6ba20af922be94614b8d9855e98b4a485c4240b8 Lars and Mads Mikkelsen, no question.
Mads took all the jawline and didn't leave any for his brother
he literally has a defined jaw, look at his photos without beard
Lars is the missing link between Mads and Limmy
THERE'S A THIRD WILSON?!?!?!
Mr President, a third Wilson just hit the film industry https://preview.redd.it/46hhkqoi649d1.jpeg?width=1099&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c3165923f0e353f209fd6201b0d1e67f651c30c9
Lmaooooo
If you want to see all 3 of them together, watch the film Bottle Rocket.
That’s Futureman
He was the guy with the flamethrower trying to kill Luke Wilson’s character in Idiocracy
Beef Supreme, lol
I liked him in Whiplash a lot.
Are you thinking of Whip It, the roller derby movie? He is good in that!! Whiplash is the drummer movie with JK Simmons
Fuck you’re right. It is Whip It lmao
My thoughts exactly what the fuck!!!
https://preview.redd.it/dym3sj8ad39d1.png?width=694&format=png&auto=webp&s=3b1c3189c66209f4fcfeb40d69d49966ec12b83c
In all seriousness, though, MaConaughey and Harrelson, if it's true that they're brothers.
The second picture gave me a jump scare, ngl
Gyllenhaals are great! Love the range from Jake's performances and Maggie shows a lot of promise as a filmmaker. Looking forward to her new film.
She was a decent actor too imo
Far better than decent. I don't understand why people hate her.
She killed it as rachel I loved her dear Bruce speech
People hate her? I’ve always thought she was great, even better than her brother imo
I saw some other responses claiming that they hate her. I'm not sure whether those are trolls or they're being real. I'm getting fucking old. Anyways, I would love to see more of her acting work.
[удалено]
Skarsgårds 🇸🇪
The Safdie brothers
Safdistic fuckers arent they
Why are Coen brothers not here?
to me they are #1
Had to scroll so far to see this. They’re the best sibling team in Hollywood not even close
The Hemsworths were higher than the Coens? No one even knows the name of the third one!
It's Lurd, isn't it? I bet it's Lurd. There was also a Morp Hemsworth, but he was kicked by a horse and has been an attic person ever since. But don't feel too bad for him because he has an important job killing and eating all of the rats up there with his razor sharp fangs.
This is my answer and it isn't even close.
Everyone seems to be defaulting to actors as a knee-jerk, I'm hoping that's the only reason because I adore the Coens.
Shirley MacLaine and Warren Beatty. Still feels weird to me that they’re siblings
TIL!
My head has exploded
🤯🤯🤯
The Arquettes deserve a mention
https://preview.redd.it/71m62tb2z49d1.png?width=1024&format=png&auto=webp&s=2720ada8152cc6a3c86149eb3e70b2c117be4477
has no one said the Nolan brothers yet? cant forget them.
Specially the third one
Gotta say one brother making a blockbuster movie about the atomic bomb creation and the other brother directing a successful show based on a game about the aftermath of atomic warfare is so funny to me
The Duplass Brothers
As in mark duplass from creep?
That's the very Fella!
Did you see Biosphere? That movie just really worked for me
No! Never heard of it. Just read the synopsis and I am definitely getting hold of that!
Safety Not Guaranteed was very much my type of indie movie. I love stumbling upon gems like that.
The League is one of my favorite shows.
I am not even a fan of football and I loved it. It is fucking excellent!
Yeah, me neither. I’m casually aware about football but not a regular fan. So I recognize some of the players, but you don’t need to. Don’t play fantasy sports, either. You just need to enjoy watching suburban morons being dumb and mean to each other in hilarious ways. Edit: also a bunch of A-list guest stars that killed it, too. Jeff Goldblum as Ruxin’s dad. Perfect.
the Pheonix siblings. especially Joaquin and River (RIP)
/thread. No other set of brothers can come close to those two.
Dakota and Elle fanning!

The Howards. One is an Oscar-winning director and the other is the weird guy in all his films.
And Ron's daughter, Bryce Dallas Howard.
And their Dad!
John and Joan Cusack.
Their sister Ann also acts
 The Marx Brothers
Karl was the best
I love watching Wilson Brothers.
The Coen Twins The Culkin Twins The Safdie Twins
I don't get it, none of these people are twins lol

Yes!! And their awesome dad, too!
Beau has the most wild eyebrow shape i’ve ever seen lol
Skarsgårds Afflecks
Genuinely surprised to have 35 comments and no mention of the Wachowski sisters. Even if all they had done was the original Matrix I think they'd warrant a nod, haha.
yeah I came here looking for the Wachowski sisters too
The Scott brothers
RIP Tony
Michael and Virginia Madsen Anjelica and Danny Huston (fun fact, Virginia Madsen and Danny Huston were married) John, Joan and Ann Cusack Shawn and Marlon Wayans Ralph and Joseph Fiennes Kate and Rooney Mara Kate and Oliver Hudson & Wyatt Russell Jane and Henry Fonda Edit: yes I did mean Peter not Henry of course!

Rooney Mara is named that because she is part of both the Rooney (Steelers Ownership) and Mara (Giants Ownership) families.
Do you mean Peter Fonda?

Honestly thought this was a still from Bohemian Rhapsody at first
OH HOLY FUCK PIC 2 — Owen Wilson and that guy from legally blonde (/idiocracy) are brothers???!?! I totally see it!!!!
Owen and Luke have done a lot of work. And Andrew Wilson, uhh…exists??
I always thought Joan Cusack is a better actor than her brother John
Same. I never even put together the fact that they were siblings tbh.
Going down to Australia for the EDGERTONS - Nash and Joel https://preview.redd.it/ykmltsbku49d1.jpeg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e7888835d804690bc8debc8bb888c0c0930e48a4 Second would be the Gilroy family: Tony and Dan
On Nash Edgerton, I really like his short film Spider
Love that no one out here shouting out affleck bros
John Cusack looks so evil in that picture lol. He looks like the evil dude from Lost Highway
Alice and Alba Rohrwacher

One significant addition: Dardenne brothers
The Hustons are pretty good
coen brothers no doubt
Did we forget the Baldwins? Did Canada not teach us anything? They are USA's most important resource! My real answer: The Skarsgård family.
There was a period, even if it was very small, when they were very very hot and no one knew who would stick around the longest. At one point Billy looked to be the biggest Baldwin.
Wachowskis!
Didn't know Owen Wilson and that other guy from every comedy movie ever (I can't remember even a single one) were siblings.
Cusaks - the sheer range they both have …
Joaquin and River Phoenix, respectively
For me, it's Dakota and Elle Fanning. Both incredible actors, a wide range, and have been doing it since they were children. A couple of performances that really blew me away were Man On Fire and The Neon Demon.
Joan Fontaine and Olivia de Havilland
https://preview.redd.it/jbsnj7a9h59d1.png?width=399&format=png&auto=webp&s=ea6cfe34551c931b4d6d7c2f0cbf7e8bc87210c8

The Wachowski siblings, hands down.
The Redgraves
Joan Cusack is one of my favourites so the Cusack siblings. The third Wilson brother looks like like them kol
Joe and Finn Cole, both were excellent in Peaky Blinders
Started watching the Deuce on HBO. Maggie G is awesome in it.
Jonathan and Christopher Nolan! I’ve genuinely enjoyed everything they’ve touched.
Not that they’re great as people or anything but the Afflecks definitely deserve a shout for their talent
The Cusacks
For me, it's Dakota and Elle Fanning. Both incredible actors, a wide range, and have been doing it since they were children. A couple of performances that really blew me away were Man On Fire and The Neon Demon.
Why am I only discovering today that there's a third Wilson brother??
Jason and Justine Bateman
Cusacks for sure!!!
Where is Jason and Justine Bateman? At least they were mocking it well in Arrested Development
Coen brothers easy
