Coronation Street<\/a> actor Junade Khan has celebrated his daughter’s red carpet debut as she stars in an upcoming movie featuring Jacob Elordi and Margaret Qualley. The daughter of Khan, who plays Idris Nazir on Corrie, and singer and presenter Gem, Alara-Star Khan is part of the cast of post-apocalyptic sci-fi film The Dog Stars, which has just had its London premiere.<\/p>\n

An adaptation of the 2012 novel of the same name by Peter Heller, the film from director Ridley Scott and screenwriter Mark L Smith is set after a flu pandemic has wiped most of humanity. A former civilian pilot Hig (Elordi) and his dog, tough ex-Marine Bangley (Josh Brolin), and others navigate a ravaged world, still clinging onto hope that there might be a better life awaiting them.<\/p>\n

Alara-Star Khan plays Matilda in the movie, which also stars Guy Pearce, Allison Janney, and Benedict Wong. As the young actor walked the grey carpet on the big night, her parents escorted her, later relaying her star moment on Instagram<\/a>.<\/p>\n
