Sunday, September 27, 2026 - Martin Scorsese was “a little nervous” when his daughter, Francesca Scorsese, decided to pursue acting, but the acclaimed filmmaker has remained one of her strongest supporters.
Francesca, 26, recently revealed that her father initially had concerns about her entering the industry, although she said he ultimately wants her to be happy and has continued to support her career.
Francesca has already built credits of her own, appearing in the HBO miniseries We Are Who We Are and films including Roommates and Christmas Eve in Miller’s Point.
She also revealed that she regularly turns to her father for advice before accepting new roles, describing him as her “best friend” and someone who closely follows what she is doing professionally.
Her next major opportunity is Mr. & Mrs. Smith Season 2, where she has joined the cast alongside Mark Eydelshteyn and Talia Ryder. Francesca said she is excited about the project while keeping details of her role under wraps, adding that she feels “blessed” by the opportunity.
Her comments offer a glimpse into the family dynamic as she continues carving out her own path in Hollywood while receiving guidance from one of cinema’s most celebrated filmmakers.
