New Delhi:
Academy Award-winning actor Joaquin Phoenix and his fiancée, actress Rooney Mara are now proud parents of a baby boy named River, reported US Weekly. The couple have reportedly named their child after Joaquin’s late brother, actor River Phoenix, who died in 1993 at the age of 23 due to drug overdose. According to the magazine, Russian filmmaker Victor Kossakovsky announced the good news during a Q&A session at the 2020 Zurich Film Festival on Sunday. The filmmaker, after the screening of Joaquin Phoenix-produced documentary Gunda, was explaining why the actor couldn’t attend the film festival when he said, “He just got a baby, by the way, his name was … a beautiful son called River, so he cannot promote it now,” reported US Weekly.
