This Horror Movie Actress Has A Dad You Would Easily Recognize

We've all been there before: sitting in a packed theater, staring up at the silver screen, scratching our heads wondering where we've seen a certain actor before. In the case of the actress who stars in the 2019 horror sequel 47 Meters Down: Uncaged, she won't catch your eye for any of her previous work on film or television. Rather, it's down to her family name and how it's placed her in the public eye from a very young age and put her on a path toward stardom.

Leading 47 Meters Down: Uncaged, the sequel to 2017's 47 Meters Down, is Sistine Rose Stallone, who has a very famous father in Rocky and Rambo franchise star Sylvester Stallone.

The striking 21-year-old makes her feature film debut in Uncaged, playing a teenage girl named Nicole who dives into a ruined underwater city with three of her closest friends. Much to their horror, the four girls soon discover that the secret city is home to threats of all kinds, including the deadliest sharks known to man.

The younger Stallone has been in the Hollywood spotlight for a long time, thanks to her easily recognizable father. Throughout her life, she's appeared alongside her dear ol' dad at movie premieres, glitzy Hollywood outings, and film festivals like Cannes. So if you feel like you've seen her dirty blonde hair and brown eyes somewhere before, it's likely that you saw a snap of Sistine and Sylvester together on the red carpet. You may have also seen her up on the Golden Globe Awards stage in 2017 as Miss Golden Globe, an honor given to up-and-coming children of prominent Hollywood celebrities.

While Stallone hit the genetic jackpot in being the daughter of a Hollywood legend and former model Jennifer Flavin, she isn't solely relying on her famous family to carve out a career for herself. Of course, her conventional good looks and surname that's instantly linkable to her father have helped set her up for fame, as evidenced by her one million-plus followers on Instagram, but Stallone worked hard to establish herself as a model prior to jumping into the acting world.

She signed with IMG Models in 2016, and has walked in Dolce & Gabbana and Chanel fashion shows. She's also been on the cover of Town & Country and Elle Russia.

Ironically enough, while Stallone has said she's always dreamt of modeling and even loves it so much that she would work for free, she once said that she could never picture herself getting into acting. She told The Hollywood Reporter in January 2017,

"As for me, I don't think I could ever act. I'm good for modeling because I don't have to talk. [Acting] is something you're born with."

With a mother like Jennifer Flavin, Sistine Rose was bound to try her hand at modeling, and with a father like Sylvester Stallone, how could she not be born with the acting gene firmly in place? She's got the best of both worlds; let's just hope that her acting chops are as impressive as her father's.

Catch Sistine Rose Stallone in 47 Meters Down: Uncaged when the horror film swims into theaters on August 16.
