Kate Beckinsale has revealed that her daughter has no intention of following in her footsteps.

The Underworld star, whose father Richard Beckinsale was also an actor, said nine-year-old Lily has other plans for her career.

"[She] would rather become a writer instead. She's currently writing seven novels. Quite a girl, my Lily," she is quoted as saying.

Mother and daughter recently starred together in Everybody's Fine, a remake of an Italian drama.
