Jack Quaid, best known for his starring role in Amazon’s “The Boys” TV series, says he is “inclined to agree” with those who call him a “nepo baby.”
The actor – whose parents are film stars Meg Ryan and Dennis Quaid – made the comments in a podcast interview with The Daily Beast earlier this week. “I mean, no matter what I do, people are going to call attention to it,” he said of the “nepo baby” label. “People have called me a ‘nepo baby.’ I’m inclined to agree. I am an immensely privileged person, was able to get representation pretty early on, and that’s more than half the battle.
“My agent wanted to represent him and he said ‘no, I want to do it on my own,’” explained the elder Quaid during an appearance on “The Kelly Clarkson Show” in 2020. “And then, of course, he gets an agent on his own and his first movie is ‘Hunger Games.’” Quaid made his acting debut in the role of Marvel, a tribute from District 1, in the first “Hunger Games” film, released in 2012. His mother, Ryan, also chimed in on the “nepo baby” discourse in an interview with Glamour magazine last year.
