8) Scott Eastwood
Scott Eastwood is currently poised to become one of Hollywood’s new A-listers, and not just because he’s the son of iconic actor/director Clint Eastwood. In fact, Eastwood originally tried avoiding nepotism by taking on his mother’s last name, Reeves, but gave into the power of his surname later in his career.
Eastwood has slowly risen through the ranks of Hollywood, first starring in smaller films like You Got Served, and has even worked under his father a few times, in movies like Flags of Our Fathers, Gran Torino and Invictus. His latest cinematic efforts were last year’s Fury and the lead in this year’s The Longest Ride, and he’ll next join the DC Extended Universe with a highly-secretive role in David Ayer’s Suicide Squad.
Eastwood has the charm, looks and acting chops for the role of Han Solo, and while he has an iconic father, he himself is not yet famous enough to let that distract from his performance.
