Supermodel Kendall Jenner is reportedly planning to start her career in Hollywood.

The 20-year-old was spotted with personalities from the film world at the Cannes Film Festival last week in part of her bid to follow in the footsteps of her friend and supermodel-actress Cara Delevingne and make a transition to acting, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

"Kendall has wanted to follow in Cara's footsteps for some time and her 'momager' Kris Jenner was keen to ensure she made the most of her trip to Cannes," Britain's Grazia magazine quoted a source as saying.

And the trip is said to have been successful for Kendall, who is taking classes from Hollywood acting teacher Howard Fine, as she met with director Jim Jarmusch and casting director Kerry Barden, and also secured a reading for upcoming movie "Wonderstruck" alongside Julianne Moore and Michelle Williams.

 

"Kendall doesn't want to give up modelling but she's desperate to branch out and try something new," the source said.
