‘The Boys’ Star Jack Quaid Embraces the “Nepo Baby” Label, Dismissing Its Impact on His Acting Skills

Jack Quaid is widely recognized for his portrayal of Hugh “Hughie” Campbell in The Boys, as well as for his notable voice roles such as Brad Boimler in Star Trek: Lower Decks and Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, Clark Kent / Superman in My Adventures with Superman, and Earth-65 Peter Parker / Lizard in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.
Despite his established career, Quaid is also the son of renowned actors Dennis Quaid and Meg Ryan. This familial connection has led some fans to label him a “nepo baby,” short for “nepotism baby,” which refers to individuals who achieve success in careers similar to those of their already prominent parents.
Recently, Maya Hawke, daughter of Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman, acknowledged how her parents assisted her in securing her initial roles. Similarly, in a recent discussion, Jack Quaid expressed his acceptance of the “nepo baby” label but emphasized that he believes it has no bearing on his talent.
