Scott Eastwood is the son of Hollywood legend Clint Eastwood. While he'll always be linked to his famous father, the 34-year-old actor is padding his own resume with appearances in flicks like Suicide Squad and The Fate of the Furious.

Late actor Paul Walker is the man responsible for introducing Eastwood to the world of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Since that time, the Walk of Fame star has fallen in love with the discipline and gone on to earn a blue belt.

The second-generation thespian explained why he enjoys grappling: "I think it promotes a healthy ego, and that’s why I like it. No matter what level you’re at, you’re always getting choked out, and you’re always choking someone else out. It’s humbling. That grounds you. It doesn’t give you a false sense of confidence."
