Loved up ... Former child star Ashley Olsen, 27, is reportedly dating older director Bennett Miller

THE Olsen twins have many things in common — including their love for older men, apparently.

Following in the footsteps of her sister, 27-year-old Ashley Olsen has snagged a man 20 years her senior — “Moneyball” director Bennett Miller.

US Weekly reports the former child star spent a lot of time with her 47-year-old beau in Los Angeles last month, as he worked on his latest film “Foxcatcher”.

The couple was spotted just outside of Dan Tana’s restaurant in West Hollywood, popular with the celebrity crowd, on January 24.

Olsen was also photographed alongside Miller at Philip Seymour Hoffman’s funeral in New York last Friday.

Miller was a close friend of Hoffman’s, and also directed the 2005 film “Capote”, which earned the late actor his only Oscar.

“They were introduced and have started dating,” a source said.

The young fashion designer recently split from businessman David Schulte, while her sister Mary-Kate Olsen has been dating 44-year-old Olivier Sarkozy for almost two years.
