In fact, Carl Junior's young niece, Carla Laemmle, had a cameo role and the first speaking lines in Dracula. Carl Junior was known for funneling massive amounts of money into his projects, and even though his films were lucrative, their profits didn't equal the amount of money that Carl and his father had been investing in them. By the mid 1930s, Universal executives decided that they had had enough of the Laemmles and they were ran out of the company.
