Bob Dylan’s grandson Levi Dylan is making a name for himself. The actor-model-grandchild of the legendary American singer opened up to VMAN 37 about forging his own path in Hollywood.
At only 22-years-old, Levi, who is the son of actress Paige Dylan and rock and roll singer Jakob Dylan, has already modeled in Milan for Dolce & Gabbana's menswear show and has a Netflix project and a movie being filmed this year.

Discussing his career thus far, the budding star admitted that he is not a fan of labels.“I get labeled as a model but, if I had it my way, I would hope nobody would ever call me that,” Levi confessed.

Despite having plenty of family members in the industry whom he can look up to, Levi revealed that his Hollywood role model is Dennis Hopper. He said, “I don’t know that I have a favorite actor, but I will say that I’m inspired by [him].”
