Tom Cruise’s son Connor lands first movie role

Perhaps joining the family business, Connor Cruise will make his film debut in the upcoming the Steven Spielberg movie drama Seven Pounds.  Connor has reportedly landed a minor role as a young Bobby Seale, with Will Smith playing the major role of Seale as an adult. Bobby Seale is one of the demonstrators and was tried for conspiracy, in the Trial of the Chicago 7.  Connor, who has grown up around movie sets had to audition for the part just like everyone else! However getting the opportunity to audition for such a part probably had a little bit to do with who his daddy is.
