Maggie and Jake Gyllenhaal: Children of screenwriter, Naomi Foner Gyllenhaal, and director, Stephen Gyllenhaal
True enough, parents are their kids’ first idea of inspiration for how and what they want to be when they grow up. As their first teachers, the parents teach their kids what is right and wrong, and help them develop their talent and reach their utmost potential. In doing so, the children grow up, honing their skills, and eventually following their parents’ path.
Maggie and Jake Gyllenhaal are nepo babies, without a doubt, but they should also be given credit for their talent and contribution to the industry. Their parents, screenwriter Naomi Foner Gyllenhaal, and director Stephen Gyllenhaal, only became their head start in the industry. Their stay in the industry until today is of their own doing, and they deserve credit for that.
