No parent should have to endure the agony and the devastation that follows when you lose a child as the Travolta’s have.  But the united family has come out of seclusion to celebrate the premiere of their daughter Ella Bleu’s first film debut in Disney’s Old Dogs. The lucky young actress is in good company, with both mom and dad, and funny guy Robin Williams, it was a dream come true for Ella Bleu, who always wanted to be in a movie with dad.

Star of 90210 Lori Laughlin, co-stars with the young nine-year Ella Bleu, and revealed exclusively to OK! Magazine that John took the role at the request of his young daughter.    

The Assoc. Press reported in Sept. 2009, that  John Travolta told the crowd of fans as he made a surprise appearance at the D23 Expo in Anaheim, Calif.  "I always appreciate the audience's love for me." He continued: "I hope they love Old Dogs and much as we do, because I've got my baby in it."
