Some talents do run in the family and these Hollywood celebrity siblings are proof of that. From the popular siblings like the Hemsworth and Russo brothers to some lesser-known ones, we have curated a list of talented brothers and sisters who have collectively graced Tinseltown with their presence. Meet these Hollywood celebrity siblings who share both bloodlines and the silver screen.
Maggie and Jake Gyllenhaal

The Zodiac actor and the Sherrybaby actor, both Oscar-nominated actors, are the children of American screenwriter and filmmaker Naomi Achs and filmmaker and poet Stephen Gyllenhaal.
Casey and Ben Affleck
