Dylan Douglas doesn’t need his famous parents for a little red carpet moment.
On Tuesday, June 9, the eldest son of Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones stepped out in New York City for the TriBeCa Film Festival.
In addition to the 24-year-old, a budding actor, the couple, who tied the knot in 2000, are also parents to daughter Carys Douglas, 22, who just celebrated her college graduation in May, plus they are also parents to Cameron Douglas, 46, who the Basic Instinct actor shares with his ex-wife Diandra Luker.

For the special night out, he wore a white pinstripe jacket and matching pants, paired with a fitted white henley shirt and brown shoes. He appeared to wear the same jacket and pants when attending the premiere of America’s Burning last summer with his dad Michael and sister Carys.
The forthcoming movie was directed by John S. Baird, and has a star-studded cast featuring Bryan Cranston, Allison Janney, Laura Benanti, Simon Rex, Jack Champion, and Benjamin Evan Ainsworth, among others.

Though it doesn’t seem Dylan had any role in the film, he has expressed an interest in following in his parents’ acting footsteps, and appears to currently be working on a short titled I Will Come to You.

Not unlike his father, Dylan has already become involved in politics and advocacy, and last year, he launched a podcast with SiriusXM, titled Young American, through which he intended to both inform and motivate his generation when it comes to the political issues impacting their future. The show launched in September for a limited run, in time for the election between former Vice President Kamala Harris and Donald Trump.
In a since-deleted Instagram post at the time announcing the new venture, Dylan wrote: “It’s been a wild ride the last couple of years. From the start of forever wars, the first Black president, culture wars, and now a second chance at a first female president, my generation has lived through some of the most transformative and tumultuous times in our history; and it’s only gonna get crazier. I wanna take you through it. On my show, I won’t just talk you through the news of the day but underscore the larger issues spinning our country out of control.”

His mother Diana was part of one of the oldest and most respected families in the Caribbean island, and his ancestors’ roots there have been traced back to the 1600s. The compound is located in the island’s Warwick Parish, though the family listed it for sale for $10.6 million in 2019.
Aside from Bermuda, Dylan and Carys were largely raised in upstate New York; the family, who have also owned a home in Mallorca, Spain for over two decades, put on the market their 22-bedroom, Georgian-style estate in Irvington last year.
