American model Natalia Bryant, 18, is keen to pursue a career in films because her basketball great father, Kobe, who died in a helicopter crash along with daughter Gianna and others last year, shared her love for movies.

Asked about who motivates her, the teenager told IMG: “My dad and I would watch as many movies as we could and we’d always analyse as many movies.  Anywhere we’d go, we’d just keep talking about different films. Like, oh my gosh, that architecture reminds me of…like this piece from this film. So, it’s just things like that really inspired me and I was like, ‘I want to do this, forever.’”
