Justin Timberlake Shares Photos of His Father-Son Trip to Disney (& Their Lightsaber Duel Is Epic)

Justin Timberlake just helped his son, Silas, celebrate his birthday with an epic father-son getaway to Disney.

The 40-year-old star shared some photos and a video clip from the trip, with a caption that said, "I don’t know who was freaking out more... me or my six year old. This was the coolest. Big thank you to @waltdisneyworld for an amazing trip."

In the video, Timberlake holds a green Star Wars lightsaber, preparing to face off against his six-year-old, who holds his own blue lightsaber. However, before the playful fight begins, we see the pair exchange a fist bump.

The video clip is followed by two photos, one featuring the pair walking and holding hands, and the other showing the father-son duo holding up their lightsabers.

While Timberlake enjoyed some special bonding with his son, mom Jessica Biel was absent from the photos. If we had to guess, Biel was probably at home with their other son, Phineas, who was born in July of 2020.

It's unsurprising that Timberlake took his son on an awesome birthday trip, given the fact that Biel has commented on Timberlake's fathering skills in the past. Last year for Father's Day, the Valentine's Day actress shared a post that said: "To the dad who not only protects and provides but most importantly, PLAYS, and puts up with all our shenanigans. And teaches and guides and comforts and accepts and respects. Being a dad can sometimes be a thankless job, but today we hope you know how important you are in our lives. We love you forever and ever and a day. Love mom and Silas."

Talk about dad goals.
