						<p>Following in her footsteps? While <strong><strong>Reese Witherspoon</strong></strong> has had an <strong>enviable Hollywood career</strong>, she’s not ready for the movie of her life to be made just yet.</p>


<p>“Well I don’t think all the chapters of my life have been told yet, so I don’t think I’m ready <strong>for a biopic</strong>,” the <strong>Hello Sunshine founder</strong>, 45, revealed during a Thursday, September 16, interview with <strong>Fox 5 New York</strong>.</p>
<p>But when that time does come, Witherspoon isn’t on board with the idea of <strong>her lookalike daughter</strong>,<strong><strong> Ava Phillippe</strong></strong>, playing her.</p>
<p>“She’s not an actress,” the <em>Big Little Lies </em>alum told the outlet. “She’s so happy with her life and<strong> I am just so enormously proud of her</strong> and the incredible, compassionate young woman she’s become.”</p>


<p>She continued, “It’s very cool having adult children. You just can’t believe that they’re grown up. I could cry talking about her, I love her so much.”</p>
<p>The <em>Morning Show</em> star welcomed Ava, now 22, in September 1999 with her ex-husband, <strong><strong>Ryan Phillippe</strong></strong>. Witherspoon previously opened up about the lack of support she felt after her daughter was born.</p>

<p>While speaking with podcast cohosts <strong><strong>Kristen Bell</strong></strong> and <strong>Monica Padman</strong>, the <strong><em>Legally Blonde</em></strong> star noted that she “couldn’t have worked” when Ava was still an infant.</p>

		<p>“I was lucky enough to have money saved and I didn’t have to work, but it’s just not a one-person job,” she added. “I would even say it’s not a two-person job.”</p>
<p>Witherspoon wed the<em> I Know What You Did Last Summer</em> actor, now 46, in June 1999, three months before Ava was born. They later welcomed son <strong>Deacon Phillippe</strong>, now 17, before they eventually split in 2006.</p>


<p>Since their breakup, the pair have maintained an <strong>amicable coparenting relationship</strong>.</p>
<p>“It’s a feeling-out process,” the <em>Big Sky</em> star <strong>told HuffPost Live in 2014</strong>. “I think we’ve gotten to a really great place. It’s going well, and she’s happy and remarried, and our kids are incredible. I’m proud of the way we’ve handled it and who our little people are.”</p>
<p>Following their split, Witherspoon married <strong><strong>Jim Toth</strong></strong> in 2011. The next year, they welcomed their son, <strong>Tennessee</strong>, now 8. The <em>Cruel Intentions</em> actor, for his part, moved on with<strong> <strong>Abbie Cornish</strong></strong> and <strong><strong>Alexis Knapp</strong></strong>. He shares daughter <strong>Kai</strong> with the <em>Pitch Perfect</em> actress, 32.</p>
