The former 'Friends' actress' 12-year-old girl Coco Arquette - her child with her actor ex-husband David Arquette - has started to show an interest in the family business and Courteney is doing everything she can to encourage her.

Courteney has already cast her daughter in the music video for Foy Vance's song 'Coco', which she directed and now she's getting Coco proper tuition for the stage and screen and she's already shown so much promise her mother is convinced she could become the "next Jennifer Lawrence".

A source told the US edition of OK! magazine: "She's signed Coco up for acting lessons and she's pouring over scripts for her.

"When she's with industry friends, she keeps saying Coco could be the next Jennifer Lawrence."

Courteney - who is in a relationship with Snow Patrol musician Johnny McDaid - reportedly feels as though Coco has the talent to land roles sooner rather than later and is hopeful that if the lessons go well she can start auditioning for roles.

As well as her actor parents, Coco has a lot of other family members who can help her with her aspirations.

Her aunt Patricia Arquette has had a glittering Hollywood career with roles in films such as 'True Romance', 'Stigmata' and TV series 'Medium', her other aunt Rosanna Arquette is an acclaimed actress, director and producer and her uncle Richmond Arquette has had a three-decade spanning acting career.
