Uma Thurman talks about her daughter's reaction when she met Rob

In Abu Dhabi last week for the closing of the capital's film festival, said she doesn't want her daughter Maya Ray Thurman-Hawke, from her marriage with actor Ethan Hawke, to follow in her footsteps because being an actress "is a difficult life".

Thurman's acting, however, has certainly gained her daughter's curiosity, especially when she's starring alongside some of Hollywood's up-and-coming young heartthrobs such as Twilight enigma Robert Pattinson and Michael Angarano.

"She asked me: ‘Why are you acting in movies with these young boys' and I replied: ‘Honey, at least I don't do it in real life'! My daughter met Robert [Pattinson] but she was so blasé about it," Thurman said
