That’s right it’s Alana Haim from the band HAIM! She is starring in film The Mastermind.

As well as her work with the band alongside her famed sisters and bandmates, Este and Danielle, Alana has turned her hand to acting.

She made her acting debut when she starred in Licorice Pizza, a 2021 feature film directed by Paul Thomas Anderson.

Alana played Alana Kane, an earnest 25-year-old who’s figuring out life and falls in love with a street-savvy young businessman Gary played by Cooper Hoffman.

The film was a family affair for Alana, as her parents, Mordechai and Donna Haim, played her parents in the movie, with her sisters playing themselves as well.

Alana and her co-star Cooper both took home Breakthrough Performance awards for their roles in the comedy at the the National Board of Review Awards in New York in 2022.

Paul was also awarded Best Director for his work on the film.

And it’s a busy time for Alana as this week HAIM announced a mᴀssive tour of the UK’s biggest arenas.
