Nara Smith to Make Acting Debut Alongside Hudson Williams, Demi Moore

Nara Smith and Lucky Blue Smith Say Welcoming Baby No. 4 “Has Been an Adjustment"

Nara Smith is cooking up a new venture.

The influencer is set to make her acting debut in the upcoming film Tyrant, according to Deadline, joining a cast led by Charlize Theron, Julia Garner, and Demi Moore.

While details on the film—which is also set to star Hudson Williams, Paapa Essiedu and Omar Apollo—are scarce, the outlet notes that the David Weil-directed movie is “said to be a high-stakes thriller in the vein of Wall Street and Whiplash set within New York City’s elite fine dining scene.”

No additional information has been shared about Nara’s character, although she and the cast will likely begin filming later this year. 

E! News has reached out to her rep for comment and has not heard back.

But her acting the debut is hardly the only exciting update in her life as the 24-year-old—who shares kids Rumble Honey, 5, Slim Easy, 4, Whimsy Lou, 2, and Fawnie Golden, 7 months, with husband Lucky Blue Smith—recently announced the release of her debut cookbook, Homemade, out Oct. 13.

And working on the book so soon after giving birth to daughter Fawnie helped the TikToker find her “voice” and “herself.”

“When we were doing a lot of the shoots for the book, I was freshly postpartum,” Nara recalled in an April 22 TikTok. “Fawnie came on the shoot. I think our first shoot was when she was three weeks old.”

“After that, there was a lot of stuff going on in my personal life that was really, really hard,” Nara continued. “I feel like I really lost my spark and my vision for a certain amount of time. But then I kicked back into it and really just sat down and zoned in and really am proud of how this book turned out.”

And while she hadn’t previously discussed a desire for acting, the desire for cooking came naturally—especially as she found it helped with health issues she began to experience in her early 20s.

“I got diagnosed with an autoimmune disease and severe eczema after I had my second child, which kind of led me to make a lot of things from scratch,” she explained. “Because the things I was eating in the grocery store weren't really helping my autoimmune which led me into what I do now.”
