Inside Katherine Langford and Josephine Langford's Feud Rumors

May 2024 · 3 minute read

Australian actresses and siblings Katherine Langford and Josephine Langford have been making a good name for themselves through their works in movies and TV shows.

The two have hardly supported each other’s work on social media, and they haven't made public appearances together despite their common profession. Because of that, there have been numerous speculations about an alleged feud between the Langford sisters.

Katherine and Josephine Langford Are Focused on Their Respective Careers

Katherine, born April 29, 1996, and Josephine, born August 18, 1997, have been working in the entertainment industry for a while now.

Josephine Langford’s Career

Josephine started her career earlier than her elder sister. She worked in short movies such as When Separating and Gypsy Blood from around the age of 14.

When she was in her early 20s, Josephine made her film debut in the Australian fantasy drama movie Pulse in 2017.

The same year, she also starred as Darcie Chapman in the horror movie Wish Upon, alongside Ryan Phillippe, Joey King, and Shannon Purser.

In 2019, the younger Langford appeared in her most successful and well-acclaimed film, After. In the romantic drama, she played the female lead role of Tessa Young alongside Fiennes Tiffin.

Her role in the film even helped the Perth native win Teen Choice Awards and Just Jared Jr’s Fan Awards in 2019.

Katherine Langford’s Career

Katherine started her acting journey around the age of 19, working in small independent films such as Story of Miss Oxygen, Imperfect Quadrant, and Daughter.

Following that, made her breakthrough in television with her debut role as Hannah Baker in Netflix’s mystery drama series 13 Reasons Why in 2017 at the age of 21.

Elder Langford’s exceptional portrayal of teenage Baker’s loneliness and depression received critical acclaims. She received the Golden Globe Award nomination for the role and went on to work in other well-known on-screen projects including Love, Simon, Knives Out, and Cursed.

Katherine and Josephine Langford Have Stayed Out of Controversy

Even though there have been rumors about their differences and feud every day, the Langford sisters have overlooked the unhealthy speculations and stayed out of controversies.

During an interview with the French publication L’Officiel in May 2018,  Katherine shared that no one in her family was in the entertainment industry, which made headlines since fans knew that her sister Josephine was an actress.

Josephine commented on the situation, telling Refinery 29 magazine in April 2019 that people often manipulate with the “limited content of someone” which does no good. 

Josephine further added,

We both got into acting on our own, completely separately, with nothing to do with the other one. We both grew up in this family, with parents that weren’t particularly creative, and we’re both interested in creative things.

The Langford Sisters Appreciate Each Other’s Work

The Langford sisters started, continued, and carried on to their respective careers on their own. But when it comes to appreciating good work, the two have not missed out on wishing good or talking about each other’s works.

Speaking to JustJared Jr. in November 2019, Katherine suggested that she had a series of films to catch up on, including Josephine’s romantic-drama movie After.

“It’s so bad! I have so many films that I need to watch right now, and I have a bunch of them on my list, so yeah, I’m going to get to it,” she said.

Similarly, Josephine also causally appreciated her sister while speaking to Refinery 29. She said she was willing to work together with her elder sister.

She further explained that any project hadn’t popped up in her emails, but she would be fine and would love to work with her sister in the future.
