The "Twilight" star got an early start in the movie biz thanks to her mother, Jules Mann-Stewart, a script supervisor, and father John Stewart, a television producer.

                                     Gwyneth Paltrow
The Hollywood A-Lister was born to actress Blythe Danner and the late Bruce Paltrow, who worked as a producer and director. Younger bro Jake Paltrow also works as a film director.
