Kevin Smith’s Daughter Turned Down Role in His New Movie: ‘I’ve Got Enough Nepo Baby Shit to Deal With Online’

Kevin Smith had an idea for intriguing stunt-casting in his new film, The 4:30 Movie — he’d hire his daughter, Harley Quinn Smith, to play the Kevin-Smith-as-a-teenager character Brian David. Smith’s wife Jennifer signed off on the idea: “Harley is just a beardless, dickless version of you.” But despite the chance to play the film’s lead, Smith’s offspring turned him down flat.
“She was just like, ‘You don’t think I’ve got enough nepo baby shit to deal with online? You now want me to play you? Fuck that,’” Smith told Hollywood Reporter.
But nepo dads still gotta nepo dad. With Harley out of the picture, Smith turned to her long-term boyfriend, Austin Zajur, that veteran actor from Clerks III and Smith’s TBS reality show, Celebrity Show-Off. “Honestly, he was more Kevin Smith than Kevin Smith,” said Kevin Smith. “He was the perfect, perfect choice.
