There are not a lot of sons or daughters of actors who have made it. Hollywood is awash with failures.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Not many child stars make it out of Hollywood alive or sane, and at any given time there are at least three former ones having very public breakdowns.
Child actors going on to become adult actors never really works, apart from a few. Jodie Foster was the exception.
I know plenty of Hollywood kids who still struggle with being whole. Their lives are never fully their own - always in the grip of a parent who put celebrity ahead of them.
After working for years in Hollywood where the actors have taken over, it was a real relief to get down there and not only have some children, but also have some actors that had no attitude.
Acting for kids is like playing house, you know? But growing up in Hollywood, it just made it seem possible.
A lot of child actors keep acting for the wrong reasons.
Dysfunctional families have sired a number of pretty good actors.
I think what Hollywood has done for so long, is make movies for themselves.
Being a popular director or actor's son can be frightening in this industry. What if you are not able to make it?
Growing up in Hollywood it seemed like every kid was the child of some star.
