The producer said it was fun being a part of show business and doing stuff behind the scenes in a way that’s different from what his dad did growing up. Sam also views red carpet events as a break from his normal life, where he works with farmers in New York.
Michael is proud of his son. When Sam turned 34 on May 30, 2023, the actor shared a picture of his son blowing off candles on a cake. He captioned the photo:
“Happy Birthday to my big bouncing baby boy @palekidd you are the best. Proud to be your pops. Love you!”

Sam is now a tall, grown man. Fans who saw the pictures Michael shared of him on his 34th birthday pointed out just how much he looked like his dad. “Actually he looks just like his daddy. And he’s gorgeous,” a fan commented. “Gosh, he looks SO much like you at that age!” another fan agreed.

More fans agreed that Sam and Michael were “like twins.” “Such a mini you Sam is❤️Happy Birthday,” a fan wrote. Fans were amazed by how greatly the producer takes after his father in appearance. “Never realized how much he looks like you until now!” a shocked fan said.
Michael retired from acting in 2020, but now Sam is in the entertainment industry, doing his father proud. The actor finds joy in watching who his kids are becoming in adulthood. Michael and Tracy Pollan are also still deeply in love and happily spending their time as empty nesters traveling.
