Francesca Scorsese

Biography

Francesca is the daughter of famous director Martin Scorsese. She is a fledgling actress/filmmaker and a student at New York University’s Tisch School of the Arts (her father’s alma mater).

As a girl, Scorsese briefly appeared in a slew of her father’s films, including 2004’s “The Aviator,” 2006’s “The Departed” and 2011’s “Hugo.” She has wanted to be a director since she was 7, when she started making “hilarious and very cringe-worthy” home movies that her father was “obsessed with.” But she didn’t catch the acting bug until she was about 13.
