What Richard Did actor Jack Reynor has admitted he doesn’t care about receiving an Oscar one day.
Although he does appreciate the accolade, he doesn’t think receiving an Oscar wouldn’t be the greatest validation.
He has already won coveted awards at the IFTAs and Sundance, but Jack insisted he isn’t concerned with awards.
“I don’t hold a huge amount of weight in [Oscars] to be honest,” he admitted.

“Obviously any accolade would be nice. For a lot of people an Oscar is the greatest validation. That’s not the case for me,” he revealed.
“I don’t worry about accolades or premieres . . . any of that. Once I shoot a film I try not to think about it again.”
“I don’t like red carpets,” he admitted.

“They are a bit soulless. I don’t buy into the glamour. I understand why they would be a pull for some people,” he explained.
“I don’t have a huge amount of room for that in my life. I am interested in things that are substantial, things I can be proud of – in stuff that stretches my brain.”
Meanwhile Jack admitted he has no interest in moving to Hollywood, and just flies to LA for meetings.

“Hollywood wouldn’t have a lot of cultural substance,” he told the Irish Independent.
“I go out to LA if I have to. I do my meetings. Then I come home and completely disassociate myself from it.
“It is my goal to stay entirely detached [from Hollywood] if I can. That affords me the ability to remain a genuine person.
“And I think you need to remain genuine if you hope to portray characters in a truthful way,” he added.
