Being the child of two Hollywood stars comes with high expectations. But for Dylan Douglas, it’s also an open door. At just 24 years old, Dylan is stepping into the spotlight with his first acting role in a psychological thriller. While his last name may be famous, he has shared that the path he has chosen is uniquely his own.
On March 25, Variety confirmed that Dylan will lead the upcoming film, I Will Come to You. The role is a big step for the son of Oscar-winning actors Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas.
Dylan Douglas revealed he was drawn to the role
In I Will Come to You, Dylan plays Julian Marks, a character described as mysterious and emotionally layered. It’s a big task for a new actor, but Dylan says that’s what drew him in. “I was drawn to this role because of its complexity and depth,” he shared in a statement. “I’m looking forward to bringing this character to life and being part of a project that pushes boundaries.”
The film is directed by Jacob Arden, known for music videos and short films. Arden called Dylan a perfect fit, saying the role requires “restraint and raw intensity” which are the two qualities he believes Dylan naturally brings to the screen. The film is backed by Cathedral Collective and Tripwire Entertainment and will begin production later in 2025.
The role will be a standout role for Dylan Douglas
I Will Come to You has been described as a “thought-provoking exploration of the human psyche.” It will shed light on the intricate intersection of attraction and danger, hidden truths, and the devastating consequences of betrayal. The film promises to explore the darker side of human nature, with Dylan’s character taking the main role. This movie should definitely be a standout role for Dylan.
Fans have watched Dylan grow up in the public eye, often appearing with his parents at red carpets and events. Now, his first film role signals the start of a new phase, one where he’ll make a name for himself and put himself more in the limelight.
