Sosie Bacon (daughter of Kyra Sedgewick and Kevin Bacon) hasn’t been in anything you’d likely be that familiar with (unless you watched Chevy Chase’s Lifetime movie), but she is working regularly, and has several things lined up.

Let’s assume for the sake of this post that many of you confuse Mamie Gummer (daughter of Meryl Streep) for Grace Gummer (the other daughter of Meryl Streep), who is in Newsroom.
