Legendary actor and director Clint Eastwood has a lookalike following in his footsteps. His 30-year-old granddaughter Graylen Eastwood shares a striking resemblance with the academy award winner. Graylen, who was born in Los Angeles, also shares the same interests in the entertainment industry. 

In addition to her acting, Graylen also does modeling. In her photos, fans can really see the similarities between her looks and those of her grandfather’s. The model/actress/writer wrote for Masque d’Or (2014) and Parzival (2015).

Clint Eastwood recently starred in his latest film The Mule (2018). The film, which was also directed and produced by the 93-year-old, is based on the real-life exploits of Leo Sharp. Sharp gained great notoriety in 2014 when the article The Sinaloa Cartel's 90-Year-Old Drug Mule graced the pages of The New York Times. Sharp, a World War II veteran, was arrested in 2011 for helping organized crime smuggle drugs into the United States.

Clint’s family, including Graylen, attends events with her grandfather like one Eastwood Ranch Foundation party in 2017. Graylen shared the photo on Instagram writing, "Thank you @praxis_fineart for the 📸💕 #eastwoodranchfoundation." Alison Eastwood, also in the photo, is one of Clint Eastwood’s eight children and also starred in The Mule. 

Maybe Graylen will be the next family member to star alongside her famous grandfather as she already has the looks down. 

But for those who don't know anything about Graylen Eastwood, it's worth starting from the beginning to give you a full picture of her life, including the similarities and differences she has with her grandfather, Clint. According to IMDB, the actress was born in Los Angeles, California back in 1994, making Graylen Spencer Eastwood 30 years old. Her dad is Kyle Eastwood, who is in show business like his father Clint. But rather than becoming an actor, Kyle became a musician who has released original music like the album The View From Here, which came out in 2013.

It's easy to see how growing up in that kind of household — with a grandfather known for being one of Hollywood's most famous actors and with a father as a musician — would inspire you to enter the entertainment business. With that said, it's not 100 percent clear that Graylen has, and will, follow in her grandfather's footsteps given that she only has three film credits on IMDB — she wrote for two productions and appeared in one short. Graylen's Instagram, however, is more insightful. In her bio, she writes, "Musician 🥁. Model~citizen. Art. Film. Production." Although it isn't widely known, further investigation into Graylen's social media presence shows that she plays the drums. For example, in a September 2019 post, she's pictured jamming out at West Hollywood's The Viper Room venue.

It's safe to say, then, that even though Graylen has kept out of the spotlight, she has definitely been influenced by her dad and grandfather as far as her interests go. Only time will tell where she'll end up from here. With that said, she has quite a legacy to live up to. After all, her grandfather is one of the most well-known actors in the world. Still, the question remains for Clint Eastwood fans: Can he keep going even though he's 93 years old? And shouldn't he enter retirement and leave showbusiness to his younger kids and grandkids? The answer, as far as Clint is concerned, seems to be a resounding no. Back in 2018 when The Mule came out, Clint told USA Today that regardless of his age and the countless films he's worked on, he still isn't tired of the profession.

“Maybe I just don't want a certain volume of work, but, no, it hasn't lessened. I love what I do," he told reporters. 

“I'll probably keep on going. I feel good, but it depends on material. I probably wouldn't do something just because it was marginal – I have to kind of think it has some validity and has some relationship to today,” the now 93-year-old actor added.

All in all, 30-year-old Graylen has plenty of time to catch up to her grandfather's success, even if he does continue to direct and star in a movie here and there. Plus, there's always the possibility that Graylen wants a different life for herself, one outside of Hollywood. Regardless of what she does, we can rest assured that it's worth keeping up with this young writer, actress, model, and musician because she's clearly talented — just like her grandpa.
