He then co-starred alongside Jeffrey Dean Morgan in the indie Neighborhood Watch, further expanding his creative repertoire.
Headlining ‘Heads of State’

Sharing screen time with Hollywood titans Idris Elba and John Cena, Quaid brings his trademark charm and wit to the story—a funny, fast-paced mission flick where he expertly balances humor with high-stakes action.
Saying Goodbye to ‘The Boys’
Throughout these new projects, Jack Quaid is also reflecting on his time as Hughie Campbell in Amazon’s hit series The Boys. Having grown with the show since its inception, he described his departure as emotional but liberating, freeing him up to take on roles like those in Heads of State.
Surprising Pleasantries with Spider‑Man
