Here’s my shot of Edward Norton from the US Premiere of “Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery”. Edward’s Glass Onion character Tech billionaire Miles Bron has been compared to billionaire Elon Musk in the press recently but more interesting is his claim to direct lineage to Pocahontas. ZUMA Press and Alamy both posted my shot of Edward Norton with the title commentary, “American actor EDWARD NORTON has discovered that the real-life Pocahontas, the romanticized and mythologized 17th century daughter of a Native American chief, is his 12th great-grandmother. The Oscar-nominated star learned of his family connection to the woman who married Virginia settler John Rolfe on Tuesday's episode of the PBS genealogical history show 'Finding Your Roots.' Historian and host Henry Louis Gates Jr. confirmed the longstanding family rumor to be fact, telling Norton: 'You have a direct paper trail, no doubt about it, connection to your 12th great-grandmother”. Pretty amazing! @zumapress #zumapress @knivesout @alamyeditorial @edwardnortonofficial #edwardnorton #flightclub #americanhistoryx #findingyourroots @henrylouisgates #pocahontas #johnrolfe @academymuseum #academymuseum (at Academy Museum of Motion Pictures) https://www.instagram.com/p/CnBGiDXLxWG/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
