Martin Scorsese has emerged to offer some lighthearted and entertaining content on TikTok amidst the deluge of cringe content. The director of “Killers of the Flower Moon” has unexpectedly become a star on TikTok by appearing in his youngest daughter Francesca’s videos on the platform.
These touching clips seem to be pretty entertaining, and they give you a glimpse into life with one of America’s most well-known filmmakers as your father.
Martin Scorsese, who is 80 years old, and his wife Helen Morris are the parents of Francesca. He also has two other daughters from prior marriages, Cathy, age 57, and Domenica, age 47. “Fish Out of Water,” Francesca’s directorial debut, is slated for release in June, continuing her father’s legacy. She has also appeared in her father’s films, “The Departed” and “The Aviator,” as well as HBO’s “We Are Who We Are.”
Martin Scorsese’s TikTok video is grabbing headlines
The father-daughter team continues to enchant the internet with endearing content despite their hectic schedules, and there’s hope that they’ll take part in a dance challenge eventually.
The most recent TikTok clip by Martin and Francesca is one minute and thirty-one seconds long. In a video uploaded on October 18, Martin interviews the family dog Oscar—a fitting moniker for the dog—as a potential next on-screen star. He gets the dog to act out several different emotions, and Martin yells, “Wonderful! Wonderful! The role is yours.”
Commenters expressed their enthusiasm for Martin’s performance and even joked about tagging the video on their Letterboxd profiles. Together, Martin and his daughter, 23, have taken part in several well-known TikTok challenges, such as figuring out the purpose of different cosmetic products and the “I have a flea in my hand” trend.
