In that same People interview, Jack revealed that he doesn't go to his parents for advice when it comes to acting. "I've never asked them, 'How should I perform this scene?'" he said. His reason for doing things on his own makes so much sense. The star said it all comes down to how much the industry has changed since his parents first began their careers. "The way that this business works is so much different than the way that it worked back then for them," he said. "I'm experiencing some things for the first time, like working on a movie set during COVID."
While Jack didn't rely on his parents for kickstarting his acting career, he's thankful they always encouraged him to do whatever he wanted. "It's lucky that I got to grow up saying, 'Hey I want to be an actor' and they understood that," Jack added. "I didn't grow up in a house that didn't quite understand what that meant, or a house that would tell me, 'Oh, that probably isn't the wisest choice. You should have a backup plan.' Like, I had the privilege, and I was lucky to have people that understood what that meant and supported me going into it."
