It’s good to see that both Zoe Kravitz and Yaya DaCosta are one their way to becoming more than their “labels” – Kravitz as celebrity offspring, and DaCosta as the runner-up on a season of “America’s Next Top Model.”

Both ladies landed the cover of fashion magazine, W, and are being named, amongst a few other young starlets, “Hollywood’s New It Girls.” SEE THE FULL COVER BELOW!

Here are their excerpts:

Zoë Kravitz

“When I was young, I wanted to be able to read minds. I would try to do that with my dogs. It didn’t work.” With a mysterious quality that seems at once innocent and worldly, Kravitz, the daughter of Lenny Kravitz and Lisa Bonet, has defied racial stereotypes. The script for The Brave One, in which Kravitz gave a startling performance, had called for a European-accented blond, but the actress’s audition demanded a total rethink. “I’m a pretty obnoxious person,” Kravitz says, “so I’ll make a sex scene as uncomfortable as I can just to break the ice.”

Yaya DaCosta

“I want to do a silent film, even though it’s out of fashion now.” DaCosta, who studied dance as a child, has an innate stillness and elegance that would be ideal for the cinematic intensity of images without words. In 2009’s The Messenger she played an army wife who has lost her husband, and her grief went beyond speech. Similarly, when Mark Ruffalo tells her character in The Kids Are All Right that he wants to end their relationship, the shock and pain are registered in her eyes. “I grew up watching a lot of old stuff,” DaCosta says. “The first movie I remember seeing was The Red Balloon, which is silent, and it made me feel things that I’d love to make other people feel.”
