Zoe Kravitz addresses impact of her famous parents on career

Zoe Kravitz has said it was “hard” when people assumed her success was due to her famous parents, Belfast Telegraph reports

The report adds that the actress, singer and model says she was “incredibly privileged” but that she also had to work hard and began pursuing the life of a performer while still very young.

The 33-year-old is the daughter of rock and blues musician Lenny Kravitz and actress Lisa

Bonet.

Kravitz, who will star as Catwoman in the forthcoming Batman film alongside Robert Pattinson, discussed her career during an interview with Elle UK.

She said: “There was a little bit of embarrassment around what came with my last name. People would always assume that if I got a job, it was because of that. That was hard.

“But I was incredibly privileged. I got an agent easily. I’m not going to pretend like it didn’t help me get into the room”.
