In many families, both parents and children follow the same career as actors. These actors you are going to discover are all related, and even had the chance to co-star in the same movies or TV shows. While some fail to carve out a career as successful as their parents, other stars have even managed to build a name for themselves in the entertainment industry.

Families in the business
It's a truth that working with family relatives is not always easy and straightforward. However, some actors have chosen to co-star with their parents, brothers, or sisters, and did so very well.
A prime example is Oscar-winner Will Smith, whose son Jaden Smith was catapulted to Hollywood stardom after acting alongside him. The father-son duo can be seen in the films After Earth and The Pursuit of Happyness - a highly appreciated film both commercially and critically.
As they shine on screen, the Smiths also become increasingly famous and regularly appear on the media and magazines' front pages.

Another father who found himself with his child on screen is Billy Ray Cyrus and his daughter Miley Cyrus, first known as the star of the Disney Channel series Hannah Montana. In the series, Miley plays a singer and high school student who tried to keep her identity secret. She shared her life on screen and at home with her father. Since then, the young woman has changed a lot and is now an in-demand pop star in Hollywood.
More recently, it is Chris Hemsworth who had the chance to play alongside his daughter on the big screen. Indeed, we can see them both in the latest Marvel movie Thor: Love and Thunder!
