When we think of classic Hollywood, one of the few names that come to mind is Clint Eastwood. He rose to fame with his role in “Man with No Name” during the mid-1960s.
His lookalike son, Scott, followed in his infamous father’s footsteps in pursuing a career in acting. By the time he was 28, he was landing roles in 2015’s “The Longest Ride” and 2016’s “Suicide Squad.”
King Charles III (37) & Prince William (37)
King Charles III and Prince William lived very different lives in their mid-30s. Charles was nearing the end of his marriage to Princess Diana and had just welcomed his second son, Prince Harry.
By age 37, his son, Prince William, had been married for eight years and had already had three children in his seemingly strong marriage to the Princess of Wales, Kate Middleton.
Alain Delon (26) & Alain-Fabien Delon (26)
Alain Delon rose to fame as a French movie performer in the 1960s. His son, Alain-Fabien Delon, bears half of his father's famous name and has followed his lead into acting.
Being the head-turner that he is, it's no surprise that Alain-Fabien had a prosperous modeling career as the face of Dior Homme. The young actor made his debut acting appearance in 2001 in the film Fabio Montale and was most recently in "Golden Youth" in 2019.
John Lennon (40) & Sean Lennon (40)
Of course, John Lennon would have a son whose name rhymed with him. His father was assassinated in 1980 at the age of 40, and Sean Lennon, the son of Beatle legacy, John Lennon, has maintained his father's name and honor.
Sean Lennon is a singer-songwriter, musician, and guitarist. Interestingly enough, he was born on his father's 35th birthday; perhaps the universe knew that Sean would continue his father's legacy long after he was gone.
Daniel Day-Lewis (20s) & Gabriel-Kane Day-Lewis (20s)
One of the best method actors of our time, Daniel Day-Lewis, has won three Academy Awards for his work. Being the magnificent actor he is, you would expect his children to fill his shoes, wouldn't you?
But his son, Gabriel Kane Day-Lewis, has decided to separate himself from his father and has found a passion for music. He is currently pursuing a career as a musician in New York City.
