ALL RIGHTS RESERVED 6 Wyatt Russell is the son of screen stars Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell Credit: Getty The Los Angeles-born screen star cut a suave figure as he stepped out in a black suit and crisp white shirt for the London premiere of the action flick. Yet fans might not have sussed how Wyatt Russell is the son of Academy Award-winning actress Goldie Hawn, 79, and American actor Kurt Russell, 74. The Hollywood icons have been together since the early 1980s - but have not gotten married. When they got together, Goldie was already mom to Kate and Oliver Hudson from her relationship with their dad Bill Hudson. Kurt, meanwhile, had a son called Boston from his marriage to Season Hubley. The couple then went on to welcome son Wyatt three years after they began dating. He is of Hungarian, Jewish, German, English, Scottish and Irish descent. Wyatt is a former ice hockey player turned actor. He had a promising career as a goaltender, playing for professional teams in America and Europe, before injuries curtailed his sports journey. He has previously appeared in the Marvel series The Falcon and the Winter Soldier as well as Julius Avery's Overlord and Lodge 49. Goldie Hawn, 78, and partner Kurt Russell, 73, still look so young as they live it up on a yacht while on Greece getaway In Thunderbolts, he plays enhanced super soldier John Walker, a US agent who is a member of the Thunderbolts, after being a former decorated captain of the US Army Rangers.

The screen star has also revealed how his dad's nickname was tweaked when he started dating Cactus Flower star Goldie. Gogi Wines founder Kurt said: "One day, when I was very early on with Goldie, my dad, who called me Goge, said, 'Hey, Goge,' and we both turned around and she looked, and she said, 'How did you know my nickname?'' After his moniker was tweaked to Gogi he said: 'Gogi was the sort of what I became to all the grandkids and to all my family." 6 The 38-year-old, far right, recently revealed the key advice his famous parents gave him Credit: Getty 6 Former sports star Wyatt has now followed in his dad's acting footsteps Credit: Getty
