  • Both his famous actor parents share snippets of family life – including of Dylan’s sister Carys – on Instagram, and showed support when he graduated from Brown
  • He had a low-key childhood in Bermuda before moving to New York for schooling that accommodated his dyslexia – did you know he once did a voice-over on Disney’s Phineas and Ferb?

Dylan Michael Douglas, the son of Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Kirk Douglas, is now all grown up at 22!

Zeta-Jones uploaded a series of throwback pictures of Dylan in his younger years for his birthday on August 8, captioning it, “Zero to 22! You are everything to me and everything is you. The joy you have brought to this world thus far is immeasurable. I love you more than words can say.”

Meanwhile, an equally doting dad posted a snap of Dylan’s graduation from Brown University in May, calling himself a “proud” father.

But will the LA-born fresh grad appear on the big screen like his famous parents? Time will tell, though he does already hold two IMDB credits in his name: one for playing the voice of Russell in an episode of Phineas and Ferb in 2011, and another for playing himself in Formula 1: BBC Sport.

In 2021, Zeta-Jones revealed to Today that her kids (she also has a daughter, Carys) have expressed interest in acting – and she encourages them to pursue their dreams. She added that they’re also aware of the cons of showbiz, saying, “They know what celebritydom is. They know the good, the bad, warts and all of that.”

So, what do we know about Dylan Michael Douglas so far, and is he en route to stardom like his actor parents?
