Kate Winslet's daughter Mia Threapleton and Ewan McGregor's daughter Esther shrug off the dreaded nepo baby tag to reveal their vastly different upbringings as they lead ELLE's Hollywood Rising Class of 2025

While their career trajectories are remarkably similar, the two actresses had vastly different experiences while growing up in the afterglow of their parents' consistent success.

Already an established actress with a series of TV and film credits, Threapleton, 24 - the eldest of Winslet's three children - is currently preparing for a brighter spotlight courtesy of her starring role in Wes Anderson's eagerly anticipated The Phoenician Scheme. For its latest edition ELLE has selected fourteen rising stars who are poised to dominate screens big and small this year, with roles in everything from post-apocalyptic drama The Last Of Us to the next instalment in the Jurassic World film franchise. Taylor Zakhar Perez, Sarah Pidgeon, Young Mazino, Geraldine Viswanathan, Louisa Jacobson, Luna Blaise, David Jonsson, Saura Lightfoot-Leon, Tati Gabrielle, Benito Skinner, Nicholas Alexander Chavez and Suzanna Son also feature on the new list.
