Set to star in a horror movie written and directed by her parents (Kevin Bacon & Kyra Sedgwick).


I was wondering when we'd see Sosie again, she was great in Smile. It turns out her parents are gonna make a horror movie, with all three starring in it.

Good luck to the Bacon family.

a horror film she would star in with Bacon and their adult daughter, Sosie. The couple wants to co-direct the film, though the Directors Guild has other ideas.

“It’s very hard to get dual directing credit,” Sedgwick explains. “If you promise the DGA that you will only direct together for the rest of your lives, then they’re more inclined to do it. But if not, they won’t.”

She and Bacon have a deal — whoever does the prep work gets the credit. “We’ll figure it out,” she says with a flick of her hand. “But I’m very strategic. I wonder if more people will see this if it’s a Kevin Bacon film than a Kyra Sedgwick film?”

now that Sosie, who starred in “Mare of Easttown” and the horror hit “Smile,” has joined the family business.

“What was she thinking?” Sedgwick says with a laugh. “Being an actor means having long periods without jobs, and it’s really painful to watch when it’s your kid.” But Sedgwick believes her daughter has what it takes. “The camera just sees into her soul,” she says. “She’s the best actor in the family.”

Sedgwick thinks Sosie has a bright future, even if she’s realistic about the challenges she’ll face.


Seems like Sosie may be having trouble getting work right now?
