Jack Reynor Interview: Jack's No Lad
Jack Reynor Interview: Jack's No Lad

Ireland’s Golden Boy is set for worldwide fame following his role in Transformers: Age of Extinction. The 24-year-old tells Roe McDermott about having Steven Spielberg and Michael Fassbender as fans, dealing with the fame – and why he’ll always return to promote Irish film.

Walking into the Merrion Hotel, I spot Jack Reynor lounging in an armchair, cool in a pair of expensive sunglasses. Has the famously good-natured star of What Richard Did transformed (pardon the pun) into a too-cool-for-school celebrity?

Transformers: Age of Extinction is in cinemas now.
