Jack Quaid’s Career

Despite the pressure of growing up with iconic parents, Jack wasn’t content to be just another celeb kid. He worked tirelessly to prove he had what it takes to make it on his own. After a series of auditions and rejections, he landed his first major role in “The Hunger Games”, where he won audiences over with his performance as Marvel.

But it was “The Boys” that really shot him to stardom. As Hughie Campbell, Jack brought vulnerability, humor, and depth to the role, making him a fan favorite and earning critical acclaim. His success in “The Boys” opened doors to more opportunities, and now, he’s choosing roles that challenge him and showcase his growth as an actor.

In a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight at the premiere of his movie Novocaine, Jack shared how it’s been “unbelievable” to watch his mother, Meg Ryan, return to the Hollywood spotlight—from her recent Super Bowl commercial to presenting at the 2025 Academy Awards. “Obviously, I am very biased, but no one deserves it more than her,” he said, expressing immense pride for her accomplishments.
