Daddy Warbucks?


Some people may think that it takes talent, hard work, and determination to become a successful movie star.  This is true. In some cases however, all it takes is the right connections and cold, hard cash. Will Smith is buying the movie Annie, so that he may remake it with little Willow Smith in the leading roll as Annie. When most parents buy a movie for their kids, they make a trip to Wal-Mart and pick up a DVD. That’s not how it works Smith-style. I must say that just because her father is Will Smith and is pretty much giving her the “hook-up,” that doesn’t necessarily mean that she is not hard working and talented. As many of you know, Willow was recently signed as a musical artist to Roc-A-Fella Records, which was founded by Jay-Z. Most young people are familiar with her hit single Whip My Hair. There are also rumors that multi-millionaire Jay-Z may have something to do with the musical score in the movie. 

Will Smith is hoping to work with Sony for Willow’s movie. The Sony film Karate Kid was a great success with her brother Jaden Smith as the star. Willow is definitely someone to watch out for in the film industry as a potential up and coming movie star. We’ll see how far her first leading role performance takes her. My guess is that with Jada and Will blood running through her veins, she will probably present a great performance. Her brother Jaden Smith has proven himself as a talented actor in multiple films. The pressure is on for little Willow. She has a lot to live up to, with 3 of her family members being successful movie stars. I know the world is waiting to see what she has to offer as Annie on the big screen.
