A conversation with Sosie Bacon and Jonah Feingold
Longtime friends Sosie Bacon and Jonah Feingold come together for a conversation on modern storytelling across film, television, and Creator-driven media. As multi-hyphenates navigating both traditional Hollywood and newer creative ecosystems, the two will discuss building careers that honor classic storytelling while finding new ways to make, share, and connect through their work.
Expect an honest conversation on creative evolution, internet culture, collaboration, and what it means to tell stories at a moment when the line between filmmaker and Creator continues to disappear.
Sosie Bacon is an American actress recognized for her diverse roles in film and television. She gained prominence as Skye Miller in Netflix’s 13 Reasons Why and further showcased her talent in HBO’s Mare of Easttown. In 2022, she delivered a compelling performance in the psychological horror film Smile, which grossed over $217 million worldwide against a $17 million budget, making it a significant box office success.
Sosie recently co-starred and helped produce the upcoming comedy thriller Family Movie alongside her parents, Kevin Bacon and Kyra Sedgwick, and her brother, Travis Bacon. She also wrote, directed, and starred in her own short film, What We Got Wrong, in 2023.
Sosie continues to build a multifaceted career, establishing herself as a versatile and dynamic talent in the entertainment industry. Most recently, she appeared alongside Liam Neeson in Cold Storage. Bacon currently resides in Los Angeles.
