Let's look at the famous siblings in Hollywood.
There is talent shining everywhere in Hollywood. Some go deeper than you might think. Talent in Hollywood is passing through family lines. While some well-known siblings enjoy the same level of fame, others find it easier to remain more out of the spotlight, even with their brothers or sisters grabbing the headlines.
It can be a quiet brother or sister and a totally different job, but it might also be a person who helps in the background for well-known family members. From actors to singers, directors to style icons, siblings, and sometimes even trios show that skill often comes from family. Get ready to dive into a surprising world of family ties as we reveal 20 celebrity siblings you likely didn't know existed.
1. Siblings - Chris and Scott Evans
You probably know Chris Evans mainly from his role as Steve Rogers, also known as, Captain America, in the Marvel Movie World. And his brother, Scott Evans, is likely most recognized for his time playing Oliver on the soap opera One Life to Live. If you follow either of the Evans brothers on Instagram, you know that they have a pretty normal brotherly relationship, which includes a continuous prank battle where they surprise and scare each other, like every other sibling.
2. Siblings - Florence Pugh and Toby Sebastian
Florence Pugh has had a big few years, with praised performances in Midsommar, Little Women, and her soon-to-be-seen MCU start in Black Widow. Since they go by different names, you probably didn't notice that her brother, Toby Sebastian, is also an actor. Most importantly, he played Trystane Martell in the fifth season of Game of Thrones and opera singer Andrea Bocelli in the 2017 movie, The Music of Silence.
3. Siblings - Lily and Alfie Allen
In 2006, British pop singer Lily Allen put out a song named “Alfie,” cheerfully urging her lazy younger brother to improve his life and find a job. So, even if they don't know it, Game of Thrones fans might owe this song to one of the show’s most remarkable characters. Lily's younger brother, Alfie Allen, became part of the popular HBO show as Theon Greyjoy in 2011. Lily's sibling even received an Emmy nomination for his acting in 2019.
4. Siblings - Dennis and Randy Quaid
Brothers Dennis Quaid and Randy Quaid share many similarities: their parents, a passion for acting, and numerous public challenges. Younger brother Dennis's job started to grow in the '80s because of parts in Innerspace, The Big Easy, and Great Balls of Fire! However, in the '90s, he faced challenges with substance abuse, an eating problem, and eventually a difficult divorce from America’s sweetheart, Meg Ryan. Older brother Randy, on the other hand, built a reputation for himself in the '70s and '80s—even receiving an Oscar nomination for The Last Detail in 1973 and gathering a large following as Cousin Eddie in the National Lampoon's Vacation films.
5. Siblings - Chris, Liam, and Luke Hemsworth
Brothers, Chris Hemsworth (Thor) and Liam Hemsworth (The Hunger Games) are recognized globally for their attractive appearance and acting skills. But very often, people forget about the third Hemsworth brother Luke, who acts as Ashley Stubbs on HBO’s science fiction show Westworld. There is a lot of potential in the younger brothers and Hollywood is in for a treat in the future from this one-of-a-kind trio.
6. Siblings - Jonah Hill and Beanie Feldstein
In recent years, Jonah Hill has demonstrated to everyone that he can handle any type of movie, shifting from loud teen comedies like Superbad to more serious films such as the Oscar-nominated baseball movie Moneyball. Considering Hill's achievements as both an actor and director, it is not surprising that talent is present in his family. Hill’s younger sister, Beanie Feldstein, received praise for her role in the funny coming-of-age dramedy Booksmart in 2019, and she also acted in Greta Gerwig’s Oscar-nominated movie Ladybird in 2018.
7. Siblings - Kate and Oliver Hudson
'Almost Famous' star Kate Hudson and 'Rules of Engagement' star Oliver Hudson are—unknown to many—both the kids of Goldie Hawn and Bill Hudson. After a complicated divorce, the siblings were brought up by Hawn and their stepdad Kurt Russell, and were later very openly rejected by their biological father. The two now collaborate under the name of Kate’s activewear brand Fabletics, with her older brother Oliver leading the men’s section.
8.Siblings - Charlie Sheen and Emilio Estevez
Don’t let their different last names confuse you: Charlie Sheen and Emilio Estevez are siblings. Their dad, West Wing actor Martin Sheen, was born Ramón Estevez but changed his name when he began his career. While all four of Martin and Janet Sheen’s kids were given the last name Estevez on their birth certificates, younger brother Charlie decided to follow his father's example and adopt the "Sheen" stage name when he got his big opportunity. Emilio, on the other hand, kept his original name, aiming to create his own unique path in the acting industry.
9. Siblings - Cuba Gooding, Jr. and Omar Gooding
The children of two performers, Cuba Gooding, Jr. (Jerry Maguire) and Omar Gooding were always motivated to follow their love for acting.

His younger brother Omar was later found by talent scouts while delivering a script for Cuba, Jr. Omar went on to host the Nickelodeon game show Wild & Crazy Kids and to appear in family sitcoms like Hangin' with Mr. Cooper and Smart Guy in the '90s.
10. Siblings - Jesse and Hallie Eisenberg
Jesse Eisenberg is most recognized for his Oscar-nominated role as Mark Zuckerberg in the 2010 movie The Social Network. However, long before his major opportunity, his younger sister, Hallie Eisenberg, was charming the audience in the 1998 film Paulie and as "the Pepsi Girl." Yes, that cute, curly-haired spokesperson who would pop open a cold Pepsi in the brand's late '90s and early '00s ads paved the way for her older brother. She hasn't acted much in the last ten years, but it's kind of her to let the older Eisenberg have the opportunity to stand out.
11. Siblings - Ariel Winter and Jimmy Workman
Ariel Winter is most famous for portraying the middle sister Alex Dunphy on the well-liked ABC comedy Modern Family.
