Marisa Tomei | Zoë Kravitz – Lisa Bonet’s Daughter

Zoe Kravitz is an icon in her own right. She has charted her own path over the last decade, ably avoiding any dynastic drama. That shows not only her talent but also her ability to handle her art and career in the same way that her parents, Lisa Bonet and Lenny Kravitz, did. Her parents are prominent figures in Hollywood, but she deserves all the credit for making a name for herself.

Zoe has a renowned godmother, the Oscar winner Marisa Tomei, who co-starred with Zoe’s mother in the 1980s sitcom A Different World. Tomei starred as Maggie in this sitcom about a historically black college, with Bonet playing her roommate, Denise. During the show’s production, the two became fast friends and ended up sharing a home in real life while filming in Georgia. Although the two actresses only worked together for a brief period, their relationship has lasted. Cute!
