Owes his success to his father.


No one would know who this guy is if it wasn't for him being the son of Richard Harris.

Richard Harris came from a middle class family and slept in a coal cellar for six weeks before he found success. His son was born with a silver spoon in his mouth.

While connections may get you in the door, without talent to sustain you, you'll be soon back out on the street again

Tell that to Nicholas Cage.

Our society is so into narcissists and into narcissism.

Wow I never realized he's Richard Harris' son. Somehow that makes me like him even more. Both awesome actors.

reply

Nah. He's better. When on screen Richard Harris was being Richard Harris, not the character he was playing. Jared on the other hand becomes the character. Valery Legasov in Chernobyl is not Francis Crozier in The Terror is not Hari Seldon in Foundation. Jared is exceptional.

He's awesome in Chernobyl, and awesome on Sherlock Holmes.

He's a great actor.
