Over the decades, a pattern has been established of movie stars acting alongside their progeny onscreen.
Prior to his second marriage,Kevin Costner and first wife Cindy Silvawelcomed three children.
(Kevin and Silva divorced in 1994 after 16 years of marriage.)
She also had a role in “The Baby-Sitters Club.”
The youngest child from Kevin’s first marriage, Joe Costner, was born in 1988.
He also has a small role in “Horizon.”
Kevin has one more child, son Liam Costner, who arrived in 1996.
“I couldn’t fall out of love with Hayes,” he added.
Turns out, the apple does not fall far from the tree.
Hayes remained enthusiastic about sports as he grew from child to teenager.
“It’s those quiet, peaceful moments that I cherish the most,” he said.
As theDes Moines Registerreported at the time, the three played catch on the iconic plot.
And by all accounts, Kevin really likes working with his kids.
Interviewed byPeopleback in 2022, Kevin discussed his decision to cast Hayes.
“And the same thing for Cayden, same thing for Grace.
You should come be with me.'”
“He’s very good,” he said.
“He’s 13 years old and the screenplay’s been around longer than that.”
“She’s our leading lady.
She’s incredible in the movie.
“And I said, ‘I know.
However, he was confident his son was right for the role.
I was so proud of him, and every day we’d go to work together.
It was a dream.”
“Working with my dad was an unforgettable moment in time.”
“It was an adrenaline rush for sure.”
“I’ve only seen him act before,” he added.
In turn, Kevin got choked up at his son’s remarks.
“I was just really proud of my dad, he’s been working for so long.
I could just only think about him at that moment,” Hayes told People.
