VANESSA REDGRAVE: JOELY RICHARDSON

Mission: Impossible, Isadora, and Julia actress Vanessa Redgrave and director Tony Richardson were blessed with a daughter, Joely Richardson. The young star was better known for her roles as Queen Catherine Parr in The Tudors and as Julia McNamara in the hit drama series Nip/Tuck. She initially wanted to be a professional tennis player and even studied in a tennis academy in Florida. But Hollywood’s calling was too great to ignore, so Joely gave it a try.

Her immersion in Hollywood, as well as her credit score, reached greater heights when she dated and married British film producer John Bevan and continued to work on other hit projects like 101 Dalmatians, The Patriot, and Red Sparrow. Her most recent film is the 2020 supernatural horror titled The Turning.Joely currently serves as the Ambassador for The Children’s Trust, a charity for children with brain injury and neurodisability located in the U.K.
