The legacy of Hollywood power couple Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick runs deep, but their two children, Travis and Sosie Bacon, have successfully carved out their own fiercely independent careers in the entertainment industry. As of December 2025, the Bacon-Sedgwick family is making headlines for an unprecedented collaboration, proving that the artistic gene—and a flair for the dramatic—is a powerful inheritance.

This blend of acting, music, and directing talent ensures that the Bacon name remains one of the most exciting and dynamic in modern show business, transcending the shadow of their famous parents and establishing their own topical authority. Their individual paths, however, are as different as they are compelling.

The project, which is set to be directed by both Kevin and Kyra, is a major career milestone for the entire family.

For fans of the family, this film promises a unique blend of their collective acting prowess and a rare glimpse into their real-life chemistry translated to the screen. It also provides a platform for Travis to potentially contribute to the film’s score, leveraging his skills as a composer and producer.
This collaboration is a testament to the family's close bond and their shared passion for the arts, moving beyond the simple "children of celebrities" narrative. It solidifies their status as a true Hollywood dynasty, with each member bringing a unique, genre-specific expertise to the table.
Sosie Bacon: The Scream Queen’s Rapid Ascent in Hollywood
Sosie Bacon has definitively stepped out of her parents' shadow, becoming a major rising star in her own right, particularly in the horror and psychological thriller genres. Her career has been marked by a series of critically acclaimed and commercially successful roles that showcase her range as an actress.
From HBO Drama to Box Office Horror Success
Sosie's acting journey began with her first role in Loverboy (2005), which was directed by her mother, Kyra Sedgwick, and starred her father, Kevin Bacon. However, her true breakout came years later with television roles that established her dramatic chops. She was notably featured in the controversial Netflix series 13 Reasons Why and the HBO drama Here and Now, where she played the adopted daughter of a multi-racial family.
The pivotal moment in her career arrived in 2022 when she starred as Dr. Rose Cotter in the psychological horror film Smile. The film was a massive sleeper hit, grossing over $217 million worldwide on a modest budget, cementing Sosie’s status as a formidable leading actress and a modern "scream queen."
Upcoming Projects Solidify Her Stardom
Sosie's momentum continues with several high-profile projects. Fans can look forward to her performance in the 2025 film Hazard and the 2026 feature Cold Storage, indicating a busy and successful future. Her choice of roles, often focused on intense, character-driven narratives, demonstrates a clear intention to build a career based on merit and quality, rather than relying on her family name.
Travis Bacon: The Industrial Metal Frontman Known as Svart
While his sister chose the path of acting, Travis Bacon took a sharp turn into the world of music, specifically the dark, intense, and often aggressive genre of industrial metal. His career is a fascinating contrast to the folk-rock sound of his father’s band, The Bacon Brothers, showcasing his unique artistic vision and commitment to heavy music.
Contracult Collective and the Heavy Metal Scene
Travis is the co-founder and frontman of the Los Angeles-based industrial metal band Contracult Collective, where he performs under the stage name Svart. The band, which also features Nicholas Emde, is known for its scorching stylings, blending the heavy rhythms of industrial music with elements of punk and heavy metal. Their work, including the EP *The Process*, often deals with deep, personal themes, with Travis himself citing his diagnosis as bipolar during the creation of some of their music.
A Versatile Musician and Producer
Beyond his work with Contracult Collective, Travis is also a highly skilled composer and producer. He attended the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), where he pursued a degree in music production, providing him with the technical foundation for his diverse career. His versatility is further highlighted by his occasional collaborations with his father, Kevin Bacon, and uncle, Michael Bacon, in The Bacon Brothers, where he has contributed his production and musical expertise. This duality—moving between the aggressive world of heavy metal and the more accessible genre of folk-rock—is a perfect example of the diverse creative environment he grew up in.
The paths of Sosie and Travis Bacon illustrate a powerful truth: the children of famous artists can forge their own distinct, successful, and surprising careers. From the box office success of a horror film to the raw energy of an industrial metal band, the Bacon kids are proving that talent is the most enduring family legacy, now culminating in their highly anticipated full-family project, Family Movie.
