Scott Eastwood is an American actor. He is the son of actor Clint Eastwood and Jacelyn Allen Reeves.
His father has English, with smaller amounts of Scottish, Irish, Dutch, and German, ancestry.
The “Eastwood” line of Scott’s tree seems to trace back to Richard Eastwood, a man who was born, c. 1620, in England. Richard moved to Virginia, United States. One family tree traces Scott’s paternal grandmother’s “Runner” line to William Hans Ulrich Runner and Christiannah Reitz/Ritz, who immigrated from Germany in the 1700s.
Scott’s paternal grandparents were Clinton Eastwood (the son of Burr Eastwood and Jesse Mabel Anderson) and Margaret Ruth Runner (the daughter of Waldo Erroll Runner and Virginia May McClanahan). Jesse’s father was born in Scotland.
