What is the name of David Bowie's son, a film director?

David Bowie's son and film director is Duncan Jones. Born Duncan Zowie Haywood Jones in 1971, he is the son of Bowie and model Angie Bowie.

Jones first became widely known as a filmmaker with Moon, his 2009 science-fiction film starring Sam Rockwell. The film earned him the BAFTA Award for Outstanding Debut by a British Writer, Director or Producer. He later directed Source Code, Warcraft, and Mute.

A common mix-up comes from Jones's birth name, Zowie Bowie. David Bowie briefly used the nickname Zowie for his son, but Duncan later adopted his middle name as part of his professional identity and is now generally known as Duncan Jones.

He followed his father's career in a different medium: Bowie was an influential singer, songwriter, and actor, while Jones became a director, producer, and screenwriter. Jones has also spoken publicly about preserving and celebrating his father's artistic legacy.
