HOLLYWOOD has got another nepo baby stepping into the spotlight – and this one has two Oscar-winning parents cheering him on.
The kid is stepping out of his parents’ shadow for the first time to make a name for himself in the movies too.

The 24-year-old is set to make his acting debut in a psychological thriller – and he’s not starting small.
The film, I Will Come to You, sees him take on the lead role, playing Julian Marks, a character described as “complex and enigmatic” with dark motivations.
It’s Dylan Douglas, and both of his parents are Hollywood royalty.
Dylan’s dad is 80-year-old actor Michael Douglas, a two-time Oscar winner.
He took home gold for producing One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest (1975) and later winning Best Actor for his role as ruthless stockbroker Gordon Gekko in Wall Street (1987).
Douglas dominated screens in the ’80s and ’90s with hits like Fatal Attraction, Basic Instinct, and Romancing the Stone.
Mum Catherine, 55, is no stranger to top awards either – the Welsh beauty won an Oscar for her show-stopping performance in Chicago.
She first made waves in the late ’90s, starring in The Mask of Zorro and the crime thriller Entrapment with Sean Connery.
More recently, she’s wowed audiences in Netflix’s Wednesday.
Now it’s Dylan’s time to shine.
The Brown University graduate, who studied political science, has chosen a dark and thought-provoking project for his big-screen debut.
Speaking about the role, he told Variety: “I was drawn to this role because of its complexity and depth.
“I am looking forward to bringing this character to life and being part of a project that pushes boundaries.”
Directed by Jacob Arden, the film is set to explore the fine line between attraction and danger, hidden truths, and betrayal.
IN THE FAMILY
Dylan’s sister Carys has also landed her first lead role in a short film produced by the legendary filmmaker Spike Lee.
The 21-year-old plays a teenager in the early nineties who sets out to prove that “sex is no big deal”.

And Carys already has four acting credits on her IMDb page.
Her work includes the short film Shell and working as a second assistant director on another short film, August.
Her mum and dad married in 2000, a year before they welcomed Dylan, into the world, and three before Carys came along.
Michael also has son Cameron, 45, who he shares with his ex-wife, Diandra Luker.
He was released from prison in 2016 following drugs charges and has often praised step-mum Catherine for keeping their family together.
Opening up about her children’s acting dreams, Mask of Zorro star Catherine previously said: “The journey I’ve had as an actor has been extraordinary. So I can only encourage them to do what they love.
“They’re both extremely bright and they’re both studying history and politics. And they get all their brains from me.”
