Hollywood's next generation took centre stage on Monday night as Richard Gere's rarely-seen son, Homer Gere, made a stylish appearance alongside Cindy Crawford's daughter, Kaia Gerber, at the Los Angeles premiere of The Shards.
The pair, whose famous parents were one of Hollywood's most talked-about couples in the early 1990s, reunited on the blue carpet to celebrate Ryan Murphy's eagerly awaited adaptation of Bret Easton Ellis' novel.
Homer, 25, looked every bit the leading man in a sharp black suit, white shirt and slim black tie, smiling alongside his co-stars as cameras flashed. Kaia, meanwhile, channelled old Hollywood glamour in a dramatic gold gown with silver detailing.

Following in famous footsteps
Although Homer has largely stayed out of the spotlight, The Shards marks one of his biggest acting roles to date.
He stars as Robert Mallory, the mysterious new student whose arrival shakes an exclusive Los Angeles private school in the early 1980s.

Kaia plays Susan Reynolds, one of the glamorous members of the elite friendship group who become entangled in the mystery.
A full-circle Hollywood moment
The casting has delighted fans, coming more than three decades after Homer's father Richard Gere and Kaia's mother Cindy Crawford ended their high-profile marriage.

Now, their children are sharing the screen together in one of television's most anticipated new dramas.
Earlier this month, viewers got their first glimpse of Homer and Kaia in the series' promotional artwork. One striking image showed the pair submerged beneath the surface of a swimming pool, with Homer shirtless in black boxer shorts while Kaia floated beside him in a blue swimsuit.
Hollywood's newest leading man
While Kaia has already established herself as both a successful model and actress with roles in American Horror Story and Palm Royale, Homer has kept a much lower profile.
© Getty ImagesRichard welcomed Homer in 2000 with his second wife, actress Carey Lowell, and the 25-year-old has largely avoided the celebrity spotlight while quietly pursuing acting.
His appearance at The Shards premiere suggests that may be about to change.
Judging by the reaction to his confident red carpet debut, fans are already predicting that Homer could become Hollywood's next breakout star.
With Ryan Murphy at the helm, an acclaimed source novel from American Psycho author Bret Easton Ellis and a cast packed with rising talent, The Shards is already shaping up to be one of the year's most talked-about television dramas.
