Your eyes are probably deceiving you: that is not a photo of a young Clint Eastwood above, but a pic from the latest issue of Town & Country magazine with Clint’s 27-year-old son Scott, who is a budding actor and model.

Scott has already starred in a few movies with his father and on his own, but he tells the magazine that nepotism doesn’t apply in his case because he’s made it on his own.

He also wants to be a leading man. He certainly has the looks for it.

“I want to be a man's man—not a kid actor or a glitzy pop star but a no-bull[expletive] leading man,” he explains.

Scott says he has the same motto as his father when it comes to making movies (“Tell the truth”) but he insists this is where his father’s help stops.

“People assumed that I would have everything handed to me, but that couldn't be further from the truth. I was on my own just doing the grind,” Scott says of starting out.

This is particularly funny if you consider his first role was in “Flags of Our Fathers,” which his dad directed.
