Jaden Smith Biography
The scion of an A-list Hollywood couple -- rapper-turned-actor Will_Smith and actress Jada_Pinkett_Smith -- Jaden Christopher Syre Smith entered show business as a pint-sized child star, courtesy of his mom and dad. He began with a number of appearances on the Smith-produced sitcom All of Us (2003), then moved into film with lead billing in another effort produced by his dad, the inspirational drama The Pursuit of Happyness (2006). That feature -- a box-office and critical smash -- starred Will and Jaden as a down-on-their-luck father/son pair drawn ever closer as the father vows to work his way up the corporate ladder and dramatically improve their circumstances. Additional projects followed, including a role as one of the humans who teaches alien Klaatu (Keanu_Reeves) about life on Earth in director Scott_Derrickson's science-fiction remake The Day the Earth Stood Still (2008).
