Jack Quaid Embraces 'Nepo Baby' Status

Jack Quaid, son of actors Dennis Quaid and Meg Ryan, embraces the 'nepo baby' label, acknowledging his immense privilege and the early representation that facilitated his career. Quaid, best known for his role in Amazon's 'The Boys,' admits that his family connections provided opportunities not available to many actors. Nevertheless, he emphasizes his hard work to validate his place in the industry. Quaid consciously avoids romantic comedies to differentiate himself from his mother, the 'undisputed queen of rom-coms,' only taking roles that feel distinctly different. Despite his efforts, his mother defends him against the 'nepo baby' term, arguing it undermines his talent and work ethic. Quaid's career includes notable roles in 'Hunger Games,' 'Oppenheimer,' and the upcoming fifth season of 'The Boys.'
