Tom Cruise's son Connor has been bitten by a bug - the acting bug, that is. He's been tapped to star in the remake of the 1984 film, Red Dawn. Connor will join his castmates, which includes Isabel Lucas, for military training before heading to Detroit next month to begin filming.
Red Dawn is an action movie that depicts that United States being invaded by the Soviet Union. A small group of high schoolers in a rural town resist the invasion and fight the Russians. Connor will play Daryl, the youngest of the high school patriots.
This won't be Connor's first foray into films. He had a small role in Seven Pounds, in which he played the younger version of Will Smith's character. Connor is also no stranger to film sets and locations, having had two famous parents in Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman. And who better to offer him advice than two big powerhouses like that?
