Sophie Thatcher has captivated audiences with her compelling performances, from the tough, no-nonsense Natalie in Yellowjackets to her survivalist role in The Book of Boba Fett. Yet, beyond her growing Hollywood success lies a family so creatively talented, they could easily star in their own TV show.
Date of birth: October 18, 2000
Zodiac sign: Libra
Let’s take a closer look at the dynamic and fascinating Thatcher family — complete with filmmakers, writers, musicians, and, of course, twin telepathy.
Kenneth Blake Thatcher (father)
Date of birth: 1959
Blake is the legal mind of the family. An attorney based in Hoffman Estates, IL, Kenneth earned his law degree from Northwestern University School of Law. Though his profession is law, he undoubtedly developed the patience to sit through countless impromptu home performances without raising any objections.
Mary K. Hinckley (mother)
Mary is a woman of many talents. She works at Akiba-Schechter Jewish Day School and holds a degree in History from the University of Utah. While she once taught piano and likely endured years of household recitals, her influence is evident in her children’s creative pursuits.
The Siblings: Alexander, Emma, and Ellie Thatcher
Alexander Thatcher (older brother)
Alec pursued a career that requires both curiosity and diligence. He works as a political writer with a focus on the Caucasus, Balkans, and Turkey, often examining Armenian and Circassian issues. Growing up in a house of creatives likely gave him a unique perspective on the complexities of global affairs.
Emma Thatcher (older sister)
Emma is family’s artistic powerhouse. Emma is an award-winning filmmaker, editor, and writer known for her indie success Provo. In addition to her filmmaking talents, she’s also a gifted photographer who probably has a treasure trove of embarrassing childhood photos of Sophie for future blackmail purposes.
Ellie Thatcher (twin sister)
Date of birth: October 18, 2000
Zodiac sign: Libra
Ellie is Sophie’s identical twin. She shares her sister’s creativity but channels it into visual arts. While Sophie pursued acting, Ellie focused on photography, music, and videography. Growing up, they were an unstoppable creative duo, constantly painting, singing, and producing home videos that deserve a streaming deal.
The Thatcher household was never short on imagination or laughter. Raised in the Mormon Church, Sophie left the faith at age 12, only to be surprised later when she had to portray a young Mormon missionary in the horror film Heretic alongside Hugh Grant. Life has a sense of humor, doesn’t it?
