"I was her 'chaperone' and I can't begin to tell you the emotions I felt standing there watching," he wrote in the caption.
"To be standing behind the camera, watching my 7 year old daughter act for the first time in front of the camera, brought so many feelings back to when I first started acting and it felt so surreal to be there witnessing it all again but this time, as a parent," he continued.
"My heart was beaming with pride and it was genuinely one of the very few times I've felt completely fulfilled. To see your child find their passion and chase that feeling is one of the most beautiful and inspiring things to behold. What a moment for me and more importantly, what a moment for her. Well done darling."
