Cameras flashed nonstop as the father-and-son duo posed on the red carpet. The 72-year-old actor stood beside Dylan with slicked-back gray hair, wearing a cream-colored, double-breasted suit jacket, black pants, a white shirt, and a dark, patterned tie with a matching pocket square.
Meanwhile, the rising actor wore a gray pinstripe suit with broad shoulders, a white shirt, and a dark tie with gray stripes. His long brown hair was styled back, nearly brushing his shoulders.

One fan shared, "Wow so handsome son 😍🔥 [sic]." Another added, "Wow! Great family genes there! 🔥." A few netizens commented on Dylan's demeanor, like one person who noted, "The guy looks very shy," while another remarked, "His baby looks so nervous 😍."
Others celebrated the resemblance, including one person who wrote, "Chip off the old block ❤️." A few kept their reactions brief, such as a netizen who added, "Awesome," and another who said, "Weird seeing Dad."
Several even drew comparisons to other stars. "Why does his son look like Liam Neeson 😂" asked one person, while an Instagrammer declared, "A bit like young Richard Gere but more naive." Someone else commented, "I thought it's young Billy drago [sic]."

The former James Bond actor shares Dylan and his 24-year-old son, Paris Brosnan, with his current wife, filmmaker and philanthropist Keely Shaye. He is also father to Christopher, 52, Sean, 41, and his late daughter Charlotte, whom he shared with his first wife, the late actress Cassandra Harris.

Following in their father's footsteps, the two youngest have entered the world of acting, officially debuting in "The Unholy Trinity." In a June interview with People, Pierce mentioned that Paris and Dylan were just visiting the set when they were asked to join the film.
Although he and his family stayed closely connected during his James Bond days, they now have the chance to actually work on movies together since his sons are adults.
However, Paris originally had doubts about pursuing this career despite both he and his brother having minor acting credits before the Western-themed film.
"We've been asked quite often if we wanna act. And for the longest time, I didn't really know how to respond to that. I didn't really know if I wanted to do it because it seemed daunting," he told People, adding that being near his house and his father made the experience better.

Additionally, he's moving forward with his next project titled "Overhill Manor," also starring John Rhys-Davies. Meanwhile, Dylan shared that they've been around movie sets for most of their lives, and that was unlikely to change.
"It's sort of one thing leads to another and it was just really nice to go spend time with Dad and Paris and be a part of that. I would do it again in a heartbeat," he continued.

When asked whether the three might appear onscreen together again, Pierce said he would "jump into the trenches" with his sons any day. This is because the former James Bond actor values family over almost anything else.
During a 2021 interview with The Gentleman's Journal, he proudly spoke about his sons, noting that Dylan was making his own documentary. Meanwhile, at the time, Paris was a student at Loyola Marymount University and was about to work as an assistant director in the film "Black Adam."

"The boys have a creative life," Pierce expressed. "An artistic life. They've grown up in the business — surrounded by movie-making, so it's been a natural progression for both of them to go into the arts. And they're both very good at what they do."
The veteran actor also told the outlet that he cherished his role as a father because he didn't grow up in a stable family. He was moved around and felt alone often.
