Connor Cruise, the 13-year-old adopted son of Tom Cruise and his ex-wife Nicole Kidman, is already taking a stab at an acting career.Connor has a minor, non-speaking part in the upcoming Will Smith drama “Seven Pounds,” a spokesman for Columbia Pictures confirmed Tuesday. He shot his part, over two days, more than a month ago, playing Smith as a young man and mostly shown in photographs. Even with such famous acting mentors in his corner, Connor had to audition for the part. So since his famous mom and dad didn’t have anything to do with him getting the part it means he must be talented, right? I sure hope so.

“Tom is so proud of Connor,” says a source. “He’s proud of him for really doing this on his own.”
The movie, which is still in production, co-stars Rosario Dawson and is directed by “The Pursuit of Happyness” filmmaker Gabriele Muccino. The drama follows the story of a man who affects the lives of seven strangers.Even though this is really cute, I like the father-son team of Will and Jaden Smith more. Am I alone in this opinion? Help me out here, people!
