Samantha Morton, a renowned actress known for her roles in films like 'The Serpent Queen' and 'Harlots', is making headlines not only for her acting prowess but also for her family's involvement in the entertainment industry. While she is a celebrated figure in Hollywood, her daughter, Esmé Creed-Miles, is quickly rising to prominence as an actress and musician.
Esmé, born in 2000, has already made a significant impact in the acting world. She made her screen debut in 2007, appearing alongside her mother in the comedy-drama 'Mister Lonely'. Since then, she has showcased her versatility in various projects, including the 2017 film 'Dark River' and the 2018 film 'Pond Life'. However, it was her breakthrough role as the lead in the Amazon Prime action-thriller series 'Hanna' that propelled her into the spotlight.
Esmé's talent has led to a string of notable film and TV roles, such as her portrayal of Marianne Dashwood in the upcoming film adaptation of 'Sense and Sensibility'. This role reunites her with her 'Pond Life' co-star, Daisy Edgar-Jones, who plays Elinor Dashwood. Additionally, Esmé is set to star in the psychological horror film 'A Head Full of Ghosts' and the gothic supernatural thriller 'Flesh of the Gods', both of which feature impressive casts.
Beyond her acting career, Esmé is also a musician. She is one half of the alt-rock group Cusk, alongside Evie Hilyer-Ziegler. The duo released their first single, 'Blu Tac Piano', in April 2024, and their EP, 'Cusk', is set to be released on August 27th. Esmé and Evie's musical journey began at an improvisation night at the Shacklewell Arms in East London, and they have since gained recognition for their unique sound, having supported acts like DIIV, Geordie Greep, and Tiberius B.
The rise of Esmé Creed-Miles in both acting and music showcases the family's deep-rooted connection to the entertainment industry. With her mother's acclaimed career and her own burgeoning talents, Esmé is undoubtedly a force to be reckoned with in the world of show business. As she continues to captivate audiences with her performances, the entertainment world eagerly awaits her future endeavors, both on screen and on stage.
