Actress Robin Wright is a household name in Hollywood, best known for her iconic roles as Jenny Curran in Forrest Gump and Claire Underwood in House of Cards. She welcomed her daughter, Dylan, with actor Sean Penn. However, Robin’s genes seem to have dominated, as Dylan is a striking lookalike of her mother. Now in her early thirties, Dylan has followed in her parents’ footsteps, pursuing a career in modeling and acting.

Jerry Hall and Georgia May Jagger – Early 30s

Today, Georgia has made a name for herself in the modeling industry, independent of her famous parents.

Now, Georgia has ventured into fashion design and has even collaborated on collections for Volcom and Mulberry. Being the daughter of one of rock and roll’s most famous icons certainly doesn’t hurt.

She married music executive Robert Ellis Silberstein, and together they had three daughters, including Tracee Ellis Ross. With a legendary singer for a mother and a renowned music manager for a father, it’s no surprise that Tracee was set up for success.

Now, Tracee Ellis Ross is a successful actress, best known for her roles in the TV shows Girlfriends and Black-ish. While living up to Diana Ross might seem like a challenge, Tracee has had no trouble carving out her own successful path.

Natalie Wood and Natasha Gregson Wagner – 30s
Natalie Wood achieved mainstream success in the 1970s, starring in the hit musical West Side Story and earning three Oscar nominations. At thirty-two, she welcomed her daughter, Natasha Gregson Wagner. Who would have guessed that years later, at the same age, Natasha would go on to appear in several films, including Buffy the Vampire Slayer and High Fidelity? Not only do they share a striking resemblance, but they also possess incredible acting talent.

Though it’s hard not to marvel at how much these two look alike, if they were the same age and in the same room, telling them apart would be nearly impossible.

Meryl Streep and Grace Gummer – Late 20s
Meryl Streep is one of the most memorable actresses of all time. Though her career has spanned over five decades, she didn’t make her big-screen debut until she was almost thirty.

She even reached a younger generation when she appeared in the Halloweentown series. She gave birth to her daughter, Carrie Fisher, who became famously associated with her role as Princess Leia in the Star Wars films. Sadly, both of their lives ended tragically.

Priscilla Presley and Lisa Marie Presley – 40s
Lisa Marie is an only child who has the privilege of calling two iconic figures mom and dad.

However, these days, she primarily focuses on updating her popular lifestyle blog and spends less time acting.

There’s no doubt that Eva is her mom’s look-alike. However, one question still lingers: is their gorgeous hair color real, and how can someone replicate it?

Vanessa Williams and Jillian Hervey – Early 30s
