Hailee Steinfeld wants to raise her and husband Josh Allen's baby daughter to embrace her individuality.

The Hexed star hopes Harper, who was born in April, will grow up feeling confident in herself and that her differences are one of her greatest strengths.

She told E! News: "A major theme in this movie is understanding that what makes you different is your greatest strength.

"If there’s any time where she is able to express that she's feeling different or misunderstood, that I can serve as a reminder that that's a great thing that … there’s something within you that is destined for something great."

Hailee, 29, would love her bundle of joy to have the same self-belief and determination as her Hexed character, teenage witch Billie Doe, who is "so convinced to her core that she is capable of living this amazing life that she so badly desires” and "stops at nothing to get there".

She added: "If I can just encourage her to find that within her and be there every step of the way to support her."
