In 1996, Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman met on the set of Gattaca. While their marriage ultimately ended in 2003, Hawke and Thurman have remained in each other's lives thanks to their two children, daughter Maya Hawke and son Levon Thurman Hawke, who are now both acting themselves. Twenty-two-year-old Maya is best known for her role as Robin on Stranger Things, but now, 19-year-old Levon is following in her footsteps—literally. Levon is set to have a role on the hit Netflix series, too.
With his star on the rise, it's time to get to know a little more about Levon Thurman Hawke and about the acting family as a whole.
Uma Thurman and Ethan Hawke welcomed Levon in 2002.

In addition to Maya and Levon, both actors went on to add more children to their family. Thurman shares eight-year-old Luna with ex Arpad Busson, and Hawke has two daughters—13-year-old Clementine and 10-year-old Indiana—with wife Ryan Shawhughes.

As a kid, Levon walked the red carpet with Maya and their dad at the premiere of his 2013 movie Getaway. In the photo here, he and his mom were at an amfAR event in Cannes, France in 2017. They also attended the Venice Film Festival premiere of Ethan's film First Reformed that year. More recently, in 2020, Thurman and her son showed up at the Spring 2020 Dior haute couture show in Paris.

He's joining his sister on Stranger Things.

In the photos shared by BuzzFeed in Oct. 2020, Levon is wearing a '80s punk outfit and filming with Joe Keery, who plays Steve. It's unclear at this point what exactly Levon's role will be, but it'll all come out when Stranger Things Season 4 launches, likely some time next year.
Levon is also a musician, like his sister.
Levon and Maya haven't only collaborated as actors; they've also performed music together. In May 2020, Levon shared a video to his Instagram of himself playing guitar as Maya sings "So Long" from her debut album, titled Blush. While Levon is not credited on the song, he played it in the Instagram video and promoted Maya’s new album on his account.
