They grow up so, so fast. Jude Law, who famously starred in the beloved 1999 film The Talented Mr. Ripley, has a 27-year-old son named Rafferty (but you can call him "Raff") who looks so much like his famous dad that you're sure to do a double-take. And to add just one more layer of intrigue to the father-son duo's lookalike status, Rafferty is the exact same age now as Law was when he headlined the Anthony Minghella classic.

"I look back on that film now, it's strange to think it was 25 years ago," Law shared with People. "My eldest son Rafferty is 27, and I wasn't much older than he is. I think I was the same age, actually."

Rafferty is also an actor (and a model) and stars in Apple TV+'s Masters of the Air, which stars fellow nepo baby Sawyer Spielberg (yes, that Spielberg) as well as Austin Butler, Callum Turner, and Barry Keoghan.

"He's really good," Law says of his son's acting in the show. "I loved him in that show."

Rafferty has spoken about being in the family business, noting that having famous parents (his mother is actress and producer Sadie Frost) comes with some perks.

"I think there have been advantages and disadvantages to it," he said. "I've always focused on pursuing the things I love and proving to people that I'm hardworking."

The Talented Mr. Ripley launched Law into the celebrity stratosphere. He opened up to People about how the role changed his career and his life.

"I think there was an attention suddenly, to choices I was making, who was I working with," he said of transitioning from a theater actor with bit parts to a full-blown A-lister (it doesn't hurt to star in a movie with Gwyneth Paltrow, Cate Blanchett, and Matt Damon). "Suddenly people cared about what was going on in my private life, too. All of that was quite a lot to have happen at once. I look back and I'm really proud. I think I handled it pretty well."
