Who knew these two were pals?!

On Sunday we spotted Connor Cruise and Alex Pettyfer hanging out in West Hollywood, and it looks like the Magic Mike star was teaching Tom's 18-year-old son how to ride a motorcycle! The boys were snapped taking a few spins in a parking lot, and according to Just Jared, Connor was using the same Harley Davidson that Alex taught a friend to ride on last month.

Alex and Connor have hung out a handful of times lately, but we have to wonder why dad Tom Cruise isn't helping out ... after all, Tom has a Ducati and several other bikes...

Connor Cruise, adopted son of Tom and ex wife Nicole Kidman, may only be 17, but the young teen is a Chateau Marmont regular.

The DJ, and soon to be star of Red Dawn, left the Hollywood hotspot ... giving us a "peace out" hand gesture on the way out.

As for his first big screen role, Connor will star opposite Chris Hemsworth and Josh Hutcherson in the 1984 remake about a group of teens and twenty-somethings who try to save their town from an invasion of North Korean soldiers. Red Dawn hits theaters in November.

Looks like someone may be following in daddy's action-packed footsteps!

Tom Cruise's son Connor and buddy Joe Jonas grabbed a late night bite with buddies at Bagatelle in West Hollywood. Hard to believe Tom's DJ son is only 17!

One thing's for sure ... these two boys certainly know how to dress. We're digging Connor's checkered shirt and matching kicks. As for Joe's ensemble, thumbs up on the maroon slacks and grey blazer. What fashionistos!

Perhaps Connor will be spinning tunes for an upcoming Jonas Brothers concert. Talk about star power!

At least someone is on Tom Cruise's side!

Although the rest of the Cruise family has kept mum on the "blindsiding" divorce from Katie Holmes, the actor's son Connor has taken to Twitter to show his support for his superstar dad.

The 17-year-old budding DJ tweeted Sunday, "#LaFamilia Always. Friends Come And Go, But Family Is Forever," possibly referring to a friendship with his estranged stepmom.

The Mission: Impossible star shares a famously tight bond with his only son, and with all the rumors flying about the cause for the split, it seems the teenager wants to make it clear he stands behind his father through thick and thin.

We're standing by for a tweet from Suri!

Tom Cruise's 16-year-old son Connor Cruise has the need for speed ... just like his famous dad!

Connor is the adopted son of the Top Gun actor and ex-wife Nicole Kidman. The budding DJ, and pilot, hopped in his propeller plane to take a flight over the Cruise family home in Malibu.

Most teenagers would think flying their own plane at the young age of sixteen is a mission impossible, but not for Tom's boy Connor.

Apparently, the sky's the limit!

Happy birthday, Tom Cruise!

The A-lister turned 40 on July 3, and the whole family was in Miami, where Cruise is on location for Rock of Ages, to celebrate!

Wife Katie Holmes threw a surprise party for her hubby at the exclusive Soho House, and Isabella, Connor and 5-year-old Suri were all spotted celebrating in style -- love those shades, Suri!

Holmes arranged the party on the DL for about 40 guests, who noshed on Italian food and a chocolate cake for dessert, the New York Post reports.

Watch our video of the fam outside of the Soho House below, and check out a pic of Holmes' fancy new bling from hubby Tom, after the jump ...

While Tom Cruise is off racing cars and promoting his film Knight and Day, Connor Cruise is staying at home here in Los Angeles, attending meetings at Scientology's Celebrity Centre in Hollywood.

At least he got to hang out with a couple of hotties!

Connor's taking after his dad Tom, jumping into his second major movie role (his first was as a young Will Smith in Seven Pounds) in the remake of the 80s classic Red Dawn.

THR reports that Cruise will play Daryl, the son of the town's mayor who helps mount a resistance when the town is invaded by Chinese and Russian troops.

Connor will have to go through a few weeks of military training before the shoot starts next month in Detroit.

But military training should be a breeze compared to his Scientology training, right?
