15+ Actors And Actresses Who Shared The Screen With Their Famous Parents

There’s a plethora of Hollywood royalty who dominate showbiz. To name a few: the Smith family (Will Smith, Jaden Smith, Willow Smith), the Douglas family (Kirk Doughlas, Michael Doughlas, Cameron Doughlas, etc…) or the Willis family (Bruce Willis, Brad Willis, Ned Willis,...). Most of these families' members have become famous actors and made their own strides in the film industry.
Despite the fact that Hollywood is full of actors and their acting descendants, there's one thing you might not have noticed: it's rare to see both of them on screen at the same time. Celebrity kids are born with the privilege of becoming new stars in the future by sharing the screen with their renowned parents. It would be the first step to starting out in Hollywood and finding success in this one of the most competitive industries. Still, it's also amazing to see our favorite actors and their beloved children starring in one movie.
In this post, we’ve enlisted 20 famous actors and actresses who starred with their parents in movies. From "Hannah Montan" where Miley Cyrus starred alongside her father to "Lara Croft: Tomb Raider" which featured Angelina Jolie and her famous father Jon Voight, scroll down to see!
