Laurence Fishburne's daughter tells TMZ that the legendary actor is "very hurt" over her new XXX career path  ... but for some reason, she's confident they can bury the hatchet.

Montana Fishburne -- aka "Chippy D" -- tells TMZ, "[My dad] is very upset. I heard that he's mad at me but I haven't spoken to him yet.  I feel pretty confident that I can work things out with him."

But here's where she might be wrong -- adding, "I think he wants to support me in everything I do, and though he sees this now as a negative, I believe in time he will view it as a positive."

According to Montana, she and Morpheus have always been on good terms -- in fact, up until the whole porn thing, she claims they spoke on a weekly basis. However, Montana also tells us she never gave her dad a heads-up on the porno news.

Montana tells us she plans to meet with her father soon to hash everything out.
