Michael Jackson's daughter just landed her first movie role
Paris Jackson, Michael Jackson's 19-year-old daughter, is making her way to the big screen after landing her first role in a feature film.
The budding star is set to debut in an upcoming project for Amazon Studios, directed by Nash Edgerton, Deadline reported.
Though the film, described as a "dark comedy-thriller," is currently untitled, Jackson will reportedly be working alongside well-known actors like David Oyelowo, Charlize Theron, Amanda Seyfried, Thandie Newton and Sharlto Copley.
According to Deadline, the movie will focus on a businessman who finds himself in the middle of criminal activity, and Jackson will be playing the role of Penny, an "edgy 20-year-old."
Though this will be the teen's first film role, earlier this year Jackson made her acting debut as Rachel Wells on Fox's Star and recently signed a deal with modeling agency, IMG Models, which reps popular names in the industry like Bella and Gigi Hadid, Gisele Bundchen, and Hailey Baldwin.
Looks like 2017 could be Jackson's year.
