Who would have thought, back in 1990, that a little-known actor named Will Smith would one day become the head of a powerful acting dynasty? His box office panache is well known, and his family life is the stuff of legend. Fans of film recognize Will’s son Jaden Christopher and wife Jada Pinkett. Now, Nickelodeon watchers will soon become familiar with his daughter Willow Smith.

She’ll be appearing on True Jackson VP, where she plays the younger version of the show’s main character (True Jackson, played by Keke Palmer). Father Will has been dispensing advice to help his daughter further her acting chops. “He’s giving me advice,” she admitted recently. “’Just stay in the moment,’” she quoted Smith.
