25+ Celebrity Sons That Are Copies of Their Famous Dads
James Caan and Scott Caan
Who can forget the iconic Sonny Corleone from The Godfather? James Caan had an illustrious acting career, starring in many movies like El Dorado to seasonal family fun in Elf. He also had a successful TV run on the show Las Vegas. Sadly we lost James in July 2022, but his legacy lives on in his son Scott.
Scott Caan, born to James and Sheila in 1976, has starred in quite a few big movies but is most notable for his role in the remake of Hawaii Five-0. He has the unmistakable nose and eyes of his dad, and those blue eyes are enough to make anyone weak in the knees!
Stellan Skarsgård and Alexander Skarsgård
Dad Stellan isn’t one that you’d always know or recognize, and yet this Swedish-born actor has been in some big movies. He’s probably most notable as Bill “Bootstraps” Turner in the Pirates of the Caribbean series, yet you may also recognize him from Mamma Mia and the Oscar-winning movie Good Will Hunting.
Stellan’s mini-me, Alexander, is an accomplished actor too. He was part of the main cast of True Blood but also had significant roles in Zoolander and The Northman. It’s worth noting that Stellan’s other son, Bill, is also a copy of his father! The Skarsgårds definitely have strong genes!
Clint Eastwood and Scott Eastwood
Where do we even begin with the list of Clint Eastwood’s memorable movies? The man is a Hollywood icon, and not only in front of the camera. From his break-out role in the 1966 TV series, Rawhide to playing a New York City cop in Dirty Harry, Clint has proven he has immense talent. He then moved behind the camera, and his numerous awards show that he can direct too!
Scott Eastwood, Clint’s son from one of many relationships, was born in 1986, and there’s just no mistaking who his father is! Those eyes, that jaw, someone pass the fan, it’s getting hot in here! Not only has Scott inherited his dad’s swoonalicious looks but he’s also just as talented.
John Lennon and Sean Lennon
John Lennon. Need we say more? Everyone should know who he is. The former Beatle is well known for his singing and songwriting skills, with famous songs like “Hey Jude” (co-written with Paul McCartney), and “Imagine” (co-written with Yoko Ono). Sadly, John was taken from us in 1980, but his memory lives on in all his music that’s still loved today.
Not only does his legacy live on in his music, but his son with Yoko Ono, Sean, is also a musician. There’s no mistaking that Sean is John’s son, and although not as famous, he’s steadily performed with various artists over the years, including Miley Cyrus.
Ever start watching a new TV show, and one of the actors looks incredibly familiar? You open your phone and open the ever-reliable IMDb, and it hits you, the actor is the son of another famous actor! We realized that there are quite a number of famous dads that have lookalike sons, so we’ve made a list for you. And it’s great to know a lot of them are just as talented as their dads! Some of them might even surprise you!
