Although the movie is only coming out now, the 15-year-old was just 13 when the movie was filmed. Of casting Hayes, the devoted dad who prays that he sticks around to continue raising his young kids, divulged, “I kind of did it on purpose, so he could be hanging out with me. And the same thing for Cayden, same thing for Grace. I’m like any other parent, I’m trying to figure out, like, ‘This is really neat. You should come be with me.'”
Kevin’s kids—in addition to Hayes, Cayden, and Grace Costner, Kevin is also a dad to his older kids, Joe, Lily, and Annie Costner—mean the world and more to him. Apart from the pride he has for Hayes’ career pursuits, Kevin also previously talked about Joe’s career, gushing, “My son Joe just got his first job out of college—he’s a sound engineer at a music studio. I’m so proud of Joe, Lily, and Annie.”
