A NEPO-BABY actress looked incredible as she walked the red carpet in Cannes – but can you guess who it is? 

The 24-year-old’s mum has a career spanning three decades and she’s certainly following in her acting footsteps.

She stunned as she walked the Cannes carpet on Sunday night in a strapless Oscar De La Renta dress for the premiere of Wes Anderson’s The Phoenician Scheme in which she stars.

The emerald green, embroidered outfit held a striking resemblance to the one her famous mum Kate Winslet wore when she was 22-years-old at the 1998 Oscars. 

And Mia Threapleton looked every inch the star in her floor length green gown with gold leaf detail. 

Kate, 49, shares Mia with her film director ex-husband Jim Threapleton. 

The former couple met in 1997 on the set of Hideous Kinky – in which Kate starred – and went on to tie the knot in 1998. 

However, they split in 2001 – just a year after welcoming Mia. 

Mia’s first acting role came in 2014 when she landed a small part in period drama A Little Chaos alongside Kate, who had the starring role of Sabine de Barra. 

She later worked with her mum again in the 2022 BAFTA-winning Channel 4 drama I Am Ruth. 

Discussing working with Mia on I Am Ruth during an appearance on Lorraine, Kate said: “As far as performance, she didn’t need me at all. 

“There are even moments where she’d look at me and go, ‘Shut up Mum, let me do it!’

“It was really amazing working alongside her and actually being blown away by her courage… she’s very, very powerful.”

Recently, Mia starred as Honoria Marable in the Apple TV+ historical drama series The Buccaneers. 

And she’s now starring in her first major feature, playing the role of Leisl in The Pheonician Scheme.

Kate is of course one the most famous actors in the world and landed her first Academy Award nomination for Best Actress in 1998 after her role in Titanic. 

Mia has previously told how her mum has been nothing but supportive of her career.

“She was very, very encouraging. But she always – I mean, always – emphasised the hard work that goes into it,” she said.
