Kendall Jenner, Rafferty Law, Lily Rose Depp, Gigi Hadid, Patrick Schwarzenegger and of course, Romeo and Brooklyn Beckham have one thing in common: famous parents - and these names are just some of the most recent celebrity offspring to grace the pages of glossy magazines and fashion campaigns.

However, it is Victoria and David Beckham's eldest son, Brooklyn, who’s just signed a modelling contract with a top agency and is also picturing a future career in Hollywood.

According to The Mirror, "he has recently signed to a modelling agency".

"It appears he has a lot of potential for a career in the industry," a source told the newspaper. "He is incredibly photogenic and has the handsome looks to be considered for some high-profile, big-money work."

The 16-year-old teenager made his modelling debut last year when he appeared on the cover and a 20-page story of Man About Town magazine at just 15. He followed in the footsteps of his younger brother Romeo, 12, who had appear in two Burberry campaigns, spring/summer 2013 and Christmas 2014 (first ever seasonal ad of the luxe fashion house).

Most recently, he proudly shared 10 images on social media of his first fashion campaign for Polish brand Reserved, and has also starred in a New York Times Style Magazine editorial.

However, he's reportedly hoping to make it to the big screen after spending three days on set of Guy Ritchie’s latest film Knight of the Roundtable: King Arthur, where his dad David has a cameo role.
