He is the genetically-blessed son of acting legend Clint Eastwood.

So it's no wonder Scott Eastwood had heads turning as he strut around shirtless along Sydney's Bondi Beach on Thursday.

With his hair still wet from a day in the surf, the 30-year-old actor showcased his ripped torso and bulging biceps as he strolled in the sun with his discarded T-shirt in one hand.

Sun's out guns out! Scott Eastwood, 30, had heads turning as he strut around shirtless along Sydney's Bondi Beach on Thursday

His off-duty ensemble was complete with a pair of black designer board shorts and some square-framed sunglasses.

Scott arrived in Australia late last month to film his newest project, Pacific Rim: Maelstrom.

He is set to play opposite Star Wars' actor John Boyega, who will play the son of Idris Elba's character, who sacrificed himself at the end of the first Pacific Rim movie.

Filming is slated to begin in mid-November at the Fox Studios in Sydney as well as some location shooting in Queensland.

Upon his arrival in Sydney, the hunky Hollywood star took to Instagram to gush about reconnecting with long lost pals Down Under.

Posing for a selfie with a pretty brunette, Scott wrote: 'Down here in Austrailia working on #pacificrim and look who I ran into. Dalia and I used to Bartend together back in my early 20's [sic].'

He continued: 'I travel with this shirt everywhere I go to always remind myself where I came from. Every time I put it on I'm reminded of the grind, working till 3 am in the morning, exhausted and still running lines in my head for the next day.'

'Then driving 100 miles up to LA that morning to audition. Never forget where you came from. Never lose sight of where you are going. I'm so lucky to get to do what I love. Make movies, for you all.'

He went on: 'Thanks to all of my fans, without you it wouldn't be possible. Follow your dreams people!!! Also thanks to my old boss Matt Spencer for hiring me when I was a 21 year old punk. Sending out love to all my old #firehouse crew. #thegrind #hustle #stayhumble.'
