Francesca Scorsese has spent most of her life on sets, appearing in films such as THE DEPARTED, THE AVIATOR, and HUGO. Now she is forging her own path as an up-and-coming actress and director. Recently, she starred as Britney in HBO’s critically acclaimed coming-of-age series, WE ARE WHO WE ARE, co-created and directed by Luca Guadagnino. Her directorial debut came in the form of a segment in the Netflix series STORIES OF A GENERATION WITH POPE FRANCIS (2021), which was soon followed by her first short film CRIMSON TIES that made its way around the festival circuit/premiered at the Tribeca Festival in 2022. Her next short, FISH OUT OF WATER, screened at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival and then premiered in competition at the 2023 Tribeca Festival. Starring Jade Pettyjohn, the short followed the story of Lexi, a struggling young mom who’s given an opportunity to reconnect with her estranged family after she’s approached by her now-sober father with news of her mother’s failing health. She served as a juror at the 2023 Biarritz Film Festival (alongside Camilla Morrone and Noah Centineo) and the Tribeca Festival in 2024. She acted as the Behind the Scenes Creative Director of the 2023 BLEU DE CHANEL commercial starring Timothee Chalamet, in which she also held a supporting role, as well as SQUARESPACE’s 2024 Super Bowl commercial. Along the way, she modeled alongside Damson Idris, Dominic Fike, Jennie from BLACKPINK, Kaia Gerber, and Moses Sumney in the 2021 Calvin Klein campaign, “The Language of Calvin Klein.” She found TikTok stardom with a series of viral videos starring her dad and served as a red-carpet correspondent at the 2023 WSJ. Innovator Awards. Francesca was most recently seen in the ensemble indie film CHRISTMAS EVE IN MILLER’S POINT, which premiered at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival, and served as the red carpet host for the 2025 Vanity Fair Oscars Party. She will next be seen in the short films FAME AND OTHER FOUR LETTER WORDS (alongside Chloe Cherry) and MONEY TALKS, both of which premiered at the 2025 Tribeca Festival. She also directed the final episode of Fox Nation’s Martin Scorsese Presents: The Saints Season 2, Part 1, coming this December, and is working on a book with A24. She resides in New York City.
