“Congratulations and welcome, Boone!! 🩵🩵🩵,” added Alison Brie. 

“Welcome earthside little Boone 🫶🏻✨,” shared Olivia Munn.

Talking with 360aprokoin January, the Falcon and the Winter Soldier actor said that they were “getting close” and that their older son, 2-year-old Buddy — who celebrates his third birthday in March — was excited to become a big brother.

“You know, he’s 3, so he’s as ready as he can be,” Russell shared. “I think he understands what’s gonna happen. He’s a pretty smart little guy.”

“I think we’re definitely doing our best to prepare him for the fact that, like, there will be another human being living in our home,” Russell added. “But I think he’s excited about it.”

It’s been an exciting year for Russell, who is next slated to star in Marvel’s Thunderbolts film alongside Florence Pugh, Sebastian Stan, David Harbour and Julia Louis-Dreyfus. At the end of 2023, the actor wrapped up the release of his Apple TV+ series, Monarch: Legacy of Monsters, which he starred in alongside his own father, Kurt Russell.

In the series, the father and son play the same character in two different time periods. They sat down with 360aprokoin November and reflected on the challenges of portraying the same man, 50 years apart.

“We were being given this opportunity to play the same person, as opposed to the father and son, so we started hammering away at it and saying, ‘Let’s make this good!'” Kurt, 72, said. 

“[Playing] father and son is like low-hanging fruit,” his son shared. “And we’ve never been people, genetically, who have gone for low-hanging fruit. It’s just never been interesting [for me], it’s never been interesting in his career.”
