Both Rosanna and Clarista are actresses but not as successful as Nicholas. The Hoult siblings are very close to each other. Nicholas said their upbringing “wasn’t very showbizzy. My sisters sing a bit, but they sing well, so it’s not like hearing cats murdered the whole time, and my mum occasionally tinkles the ivories, but it’s not like we’re all walking around going, ‘Morning, dahling! Kiss kiss!’”

Nicholas revealed that he and his siblings “didn’t put on plays or any of that. We were more outdoorsy as kids, running around in the garden and making tree houses and pretending to be like the Lost Boys and stuff. In other words, it was very normal.” Roger Hoult was often working away from home while his children were growing up.

Nicholas Hoult who is now a successful actor said acting “was just a hobby. I didn’t really play sports that much. And my older sister and brother were doing lots of singing and dancing, so my mum said there was no point in my sitting around in the car waiting for them, I might as well go in and learn to do it as well.”

“There was none of that pushy, ‘You must succeed’ thing.” Nicholas Hoult started acting at a very young age. The child star said: “I just find it funny. I was not really ever a star. I’ve never viewed the success I’ve had as being too much; it was never astronomical, your world flipped upside down, you can’t live a normal life. It was always more like: ‘This is good. Maybe you can continue to do this.’”
