Ethan Hawke has taken on many notable roles throughout the course of his nearly 40-year career. From Dead Poet’s Society (1989) to Gattaca (1997) and Training Day (2001), which he co-starred in alongside Denzel Washington, we’ve barely skimmed the surface of his lengthy resume. Another important role he’s played for many years? Dad.
Some might not know that the 53-year-old is a doting father of four. The award-winning actor shares two children—Maya Hawke and Levon Roan Thurman-Hawke—with ex-wife and actress Uma Thurman, whom he was married to from 1998 to 2005. The Moon Knight actor also has two children—Clementine Jean and Indiana Hawke—with wife Ryan Shawhughes Hawke, whom he tied the knot with in 2008. Fatherhood is a source of joy for Hawke, who, in an interview with Business Standard in 2015, spoke about how much parenting has changed him. "Children make you so much more reflective about everything in your life," he stated adding: "When I had my older children, I was completely staggered by the magnitude of the experience. Maybe you can never be fully prepared to be a father, but I felt like it was fascinating to come to terms with the responsibilities and to structure your world very differently.”
Hawke and eldest daughter Maya are set to share the screen together with their upcoming film Revolver, which is currently in pre-production. The impending movie follows up the pair’s recently released biopic Wildcat. Scroll down, to learn more about Ethan Hawke’s four children.
