3. Sofia Coppola
Another gargantuan shoe to fill, the daughter of Francis Ford Coppola made her screen debut as an infant daughter to Al Pacino’s Michael Corleone in the monumental film The Godfather. She was roasted for her performance in the third installment of The Godfather nearly 20 years later. Since then, she has written and directed four critically acclaimed feature films, the 2004 film Lost in Translation that received an Academy Award nomination for Best Picture, earned Coppola a nomination for Best Director, and scored her a win for Best Original Screenplay. She is currently working on her latest film, Bling Ring, starring Emma Watson and Leslie Mann.
