7-year-old Saint West and Kardashian’s first son will reportedly make a cameo appearance in one of the scenes, but nothing changes the fact that this is such a huge milestone for the family.

Nepo Babies?
The West babies’ roles may or may not have added to the ongoing claims of Nepotism making rounds in Hollywood. The term “nepo babies” is used to qualify kids who use family connections to build their careers.
They join other alleged nepo babies like Lily-Rose Depp, Margaret Qualley, Maude Apatow, Lourdes Leon, Leni Klum, and Riley Keough, who are also bold faces in the industry.
