Town & Country turned the spotlight on Clint Eastwood's son Scott Eastwood, with a recent fashion spread featuring the 27-year-old hunk, in its October issue.

The spread nails a fine balance, showcasing both Scott's tough side -- "pounding nails, working construction, bartending, and valeting cars" -- and his suave sophistication. The shoot took place on a luxury yacht and features solo shots of Scott and some of him with a female model. The pictures highlight Scott's athletic frame, perfectly chiseled abs -- he is shirtless in a bunch of pictures -- and periwinkle eyes. Wearing a slight stubble, he looks much like a modern-day Dirty Harry with cigar in mouth.

Being the son of a Hollywood heavyweight doesn't seem to have made things any easier for the aspiring actor.

"People assumed that I would have everything handed to me, but that couldn't be further from the truth," he told the publication. "I was on my own just doing the grind."

Scott's stepmom Dina Eastwood corroborated this in an interview with US weekly, published on Sept. 19.

"He is an amazing young man!" she told Us Weekly. "He has had nothing handed to him -- ever. He works as a bartender when he is not acting. He has to pay the bills!"

But Eastwood has been supportive of his son's career Scott and also gave him small roles in his films, Flags of Our Fathers, Gran Torino and Trouble with the Curve, in the past.

Scott has a bunch of films lined up for the next year. He will be co-starring in David Ayer's Fury, with Brad Pitt, Shia LeBeouf, and Logan Lerman. He started filming for Fury, which is set during World War II, in September. Scott is also set to play the lead in Dawn Patrol, in which he portrays a blue-collar surfer who gets into trouble when he kills the wrong man for avenging his brother's murder. He most recently wrapped The Perfect Wave. He plays the role of a surfer in the film which has been directed by Bruce MacDonald. The release date for the film hasn't been announced yet.
