Who Is Maya Hawke?

Maya Hawke is an American actress and singer-songwriter who grew up in the middle of the film world and then carved out a career very much her own. Born in New York City to actors Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman, she spent her childhood around film sets and theatre, but her breakthrough came on her own terms: first as Jo March in the BBC’s 2017 adaptation of Little Women, and then as Robin Buckley in Stranger Things, the quick-witted, sharp-tongued teenager who became one of the show’s most loved characters. Alongside acting, she has released four studio albums of folk-leaning songs she writes herself, and she married singer-songwriter Christian Lee Hutson on Valentine’s Day in 2026.

What sets Hawke apart is the variety of her choices. Rather than settling into one kind of role, she has moved between period drama, horror, independent film, blockbuster animation, the stage and music, often picking projects that let her work with directors she admires. In Stranger Things, she stars alongside Millie Bobby Brown, whose Eleven anchors the series, while her own Robin grew from a scene-stealing newcomer into a central figure of the show’s final seasons. Off screen, she has kept a relatively low profile for someone who grew up in the public eye, letting the work — the films, the albums, the stage roles — speak for itself.

Maya Hawke’s Early Life & Background

Maya Ray Thurman-Hawke was born on July 8, 1998, in New York City. Her father is actor Ethan Hawke and her mother is actor Uma Thurman, and she has a younger brother, Levon, who was born in 2002 and has also become an actor. Her parents divorced when she was young, and she also has three half-sisters from her parents’ later relationships. She attended Saint Ann’s School in Brooklyn, where she took part in school productions and developed the love of performance that would shape her career.

After school, Hawke studied acting at the Juilliard School in New York, and she also trained at a summer programme at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London. She left Juilliard after a year, when she was cast as Jo March in the BBC’s Little Women — a role that became her acting debut. Before that, she had begun working as a model: she appeared on the cover of Vogue in May 2017, modelled for AllSaints, and fronted a Calvin Klein underwear campaign directed by Sofia Coppola. Modelling gave her an early taste of the public eye, but acting and music were always where her ambitions lay.

Maya Hawke’s Career

Hawke’s acting career began with Little Women in 2017, in which she played Jo March opposite Emily Watson and Angela Lansbury in the BBC’s three-part adaptation of Louisa May Alcott’s novel. The performance drew warm reviews and introduced her to audiences on both sides of the Atlantic. Her film debut followed in 2019 with a small part in Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, and that same year she joined the cast of Stranger Things in its third season as Robin Buckley, the quick-witted ice-cream parlour worker who becomes Steve Harrington’s best friend. Robin quickly became a fan favourite, and Hawke stayed with the series through its fourth and fifth seasons. Her Stranger Things co-stars include Sadie Sink, who plays Max Mayfield.

Between seasons of Stranger Things, Hawke built a busy film career. She starred in the satire Mainstream (2020), appeared in the miniseries The Good Lord Bird (2020) alongside her father, and played Heather Watkins in Netflix’s Fear Street Part One: 1994 (2021). She co-led the dark comedy Do Revenge (2022) with Camila Mendes, appeared in Wes Anderson’s Asteroid City (2023) and in Bradley Cooper’s Maestro (2023) as Jamie Bernstein, and took on one of her most demanding roles in Wildcat (2023), playing the writer Flannery O’Connor in a film directed by her father, on which she also served as an executive producer. In 2024, she voiced Anxiety in Pixar’s Inside Out 2, a role that introduced her to a huge new audience — the film became the highest-grossing film of 2024.

Music has run alongside acting throughout Hawke’s career. She released her first two singles, “To Love a Boy” and “Stay Open”, in August 2019, followed by her debut album Blush in 2020. Three more albums followed — Moss in 2022, Chaos Angel in 2024 and Maitreya Corso in 2026 — each one showcasing her folk-influenced songwriting. On stage, she played the lead role of Eurydice in 2025 at New York’s Signature Theatre. Her upcoming screen work includes the role of Wiress in The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping (2026), a part in the Magic: The Gathering film announced in November 2026, and the Netflix series The God of the Woods, which is in production.
