Pierce Brosnan is one proud dad! The actor is a boy dad of four, sharing sons Dylan and Paris with wife Keely Shaye Brosnan, and sons Sean and Chris with his late first wife Cassandra Harris.

Pierce, 71, and Cassandra welcomed Sean, now 40, during their marriage and he adopted Chris, 51, and his late sister Charlotte when their father, Cassandra's ex-husband Dermot Harris, passed away in 1986.

Sean is also an actor, just like his dad, but deviated from the profession to pursue a career in clinical psychology. However, he put his psychology career on hold to return to the stage recently.

Between August 20-25, the 40-year-old led a theater production of the play Waiting for Godot, and that run has finally come to an end, and his dad couldn't be more thrilled with his latest endeavor.

Sean shared a post on Instagram that featured snapshots of him in character, sporting thick and long hair and a beard to match, all tinged with grays that contrasted sharply with his usually blonde style.

"And it's finished," he penned. "Goodnight Vladimir. It's been a pleasure. Thank you to everyone for your support. Means the world to me." Pierce shared words of encouragement in the comments section.

"Hearty congratulations dear Sean, Vladimir will never leave your soul, you are one. Deep respect for your work," he sweetly wrote. Others added responses like: "Congratulations Sean," and: "Epic! Phenomenal performance and play," as well as: "Well done brother. I think you should keep the look, it suits you."

Sean still maintains a close relationship with his father, as well as his half-brothers Dylan and Paris, making the occasional red carpet appearance with them as well. He is a dad himself to nine-year-old Marley May and one-year-old Jaxxxon Elijah, shared with wife Sanja Banic.

And perhaps in a production of Waiting for Godot? What a dynamic duo you both are. I appreciate you both so much and I hope to make you both proud. Love to you both, Seany AKA Vladimir!"
