Melissa McCarthy will feel right at home on her latest movie which has become a family affair.
Her daughter will now join the actress onscreen in upcoming comedy Michelle Darnell to play a younger version of her mother's character while McCarthy's husband Ben Falcone directs.
The movie stars McCarthy as a corporate professional who tries to rebrand herself as America's sweetheart after she is released from jail for insider trading.
The couple's eight-year-old daughter Vivian, who was originally cast as an extra in the project, has been promoted to portray a child version of Michelle Darnell, the title character, according to a contract obtained by TMZ.com.
