Famous stars whose ancestors are even more famous than they are

[post_page_title]Brad Pitt and King Henry II[/post_page_title]
Brad Pitt has starred in some of the most memorable films of the last 25 years, from Interview with the Vampire to the recent Once Upon a Time In Hollywood. He’s been nominated for Academy Awards as an actor and picked up a Best Picture Oscar as a producer. In other words, he’s bonafide Hollywood royalty. That’s pretty fitting, since there’s actual royalty in his bloodline. Pitt’s roots go back to King Henry II, who ruled over England in the 12th century. This makes him, incidentally, Queen Elizabeth’s 25th cousin.
