Iris Law Eyes Acting Career, Addresses 'Nepo Baby' Label

Model Iris Law, daughter of actors Jude Law and Sadie Frost, has revealed her ambition to pursue a career in acting. Law, who has established herself in the fashion industry, acknowledged her privileged position while addressing the 'nepo baby' label.

In a recent interview with Who What Wear, Law shared that she is actively working on developing her acting skills. This includes meeting with directors, recording self-tapes, and building connections within the industry, rather than entering the field without preparation. "I think you should always feel like [you need to prove yourself]," Law stated when asked about the 'nepo baby' discussion. "I don't think you should get complacent in the place that you're in."

She added, "You can get sucked into a negative way to think about it. I try to take the positive route of feeling like 'Wow, I'm so lucky' and understand that, of course, there are privileges that I hold."

Law, who made her professional modeling debut in December 2015 at age 15, has walked for notable brands such as Versace, Burberry, and Victoria's Secret, and has appeared in campaigns for Miu Miu. She also became the face of Burberry Beauty.

Her acting credits include a role in the 2022 mini-series "Pistol," which chronicled the rise of the Sex Pistols. More recently, she starred as the lead character Cassandra in the film "Rain Catcher," released in July.

Law expressed a desire to delve deeper into acting within the next five years, stating, "I want to feel like I really have deserved whatever comes my way." She also indicated an interest in starring in a horror film, which she described as a "growing genre."
