We’re all familiar with Maya Hawke – one of the most talented and talked-about “nepo babies” of her generation, being the daughter of Hollywood veterans Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman – but did you know she has a brother Levon, who’s also stepping into the limelight?

Levon, 22, recently starred in his older sister’s music video for “Dark”, which premiered in March. What’s more, he’s set to act in fellow nepo baby Zoë Kravitz’s upcoming film Blink Twice, which recently changed its name from its explicit working title P**** Island, states Screenrant.

So even if this is the first time you’ve come across Levon’s name, it certainly won’t be the last.

Levon Thurman-Hawke is the son of two very famous, critically acclaimed actors – Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman. The former couple were married from 1998 to 2005, and welcomed two kids, Maya, 25, and Levon, 22.

Ethan has since had two more kids, Clementine and Indiana, with his current wife, Ryan Hawke, states People. Uma, meanwhile, also shares daughter Luna with her ex-fiancé Arpad Busson.

Levon’s name has a special meaning. According to The Guardian, Ethan chose the name for Levon Helm, the drummer and one of the three lead vocalists for rock band The Band, whose career spanned the 60s to the 90s.

He’s following in his parents’ footsteps

While Maya has made a name for herself as an actress in TV series like Netflix’s Stranger Things, Levon is just getting started in his career. But one thing seems for sure – he’s likely to follow a similar path to his parents.

In 2023, he made waves for joining an A-list cast on Apple TV+’s mini series The Crowded Room with Tom Holland and Amanda Seyfried. He currently has two upcoming projects in the works, The Thicket and Blink Twice, as seen on his IMDB.

He’s also been known to step out with his famous mum. Last year, he appeared at Cannes Film Festival with the Kill Bill star. Levon has an eye for fashion, too. In 2020, he joined his mum at a Dior fashion show, and before that, in 2018, the chic mother-son duo attended a Prada resort event together.
