Robyn Lively Career
She started her career when she was living in her early childhood. Robyn developed her passion for acting at a young age. She was just six years old when she first appeared on the small screen with one of the biggest debuts in TV movies entitled DSummer of My German Soldier (released 1978). During the 1980s, Robyn appeared on several other television shows including Starman, Punky Brewster, and Silver Spoons. Despite this, she played some of the leading roles in films like Teen Witch, Not Quite Human, The Karate Kid Part III, Wildcats and many more.
Once in 1989, Robyn was cast with the role of Jessica Andrews in The Karate Kid Part III, where the film’s producers were forced to change the role of the protagonist, Daniel LaRusso, since Robyn was 16 at the time and she had an interesting role in the developed love. Played by actor Ralph Macchio, Daniel was 27 at the time, despite playing his role as an 18-year-old personality. The age difference and the situation that arose for the film’s release prompted the producers to rewrite the roles of Jessica and Daniel so that the couple could develop a close friendship.
Rise to Fame
Lively was 19 when she was nominated for an Emily Award in 1991 for her special performance as an insecure teenager on the ABC Afterschool Special episodes “Less Than Perfect Daughter.” In 1990, Robyn had recurring roles in films such as Twin Peaks, Chicago Hope, MD, and Doogie Howser.
