Jack Reynor

He appeared in the 2017 mini-series Philip K. Dick's Electric Dreams and the 2018 drama film On the Basis of Sex, and then starred in the 2019 horror film Midsommar alongside Florence Pugh.

Days after wrapping the T4 global press tour, Reynor travelled to London to shoot Andy Serkis' Netflix film, Mowgli, alongside Christian Bale, Cate Blanchett, and Benedict Cumberbatch. The feature uses cutting-edge facial recognition technology that has been specifically invented for the project. Also that year, Reynor starred in upcoming writer/director Gerard Barrett's film Glassland with Toni Collette and Will Poulter, in which he plays a young taxi driver who struggles to instill a sense of structure in his life while his mother suffers from severe alcoholism. The film was released early 2015 and earned Reynor the World Cinema Dramatic Special Jury Award for Acting at the Sundance Film Festival. After Glassland, Reynor shot Julian Jarrold's romantic comedy, A Royal Night Out. His role opposite Sarah Gadon was the character RAF airman Jack, the young Princess Elizabeth's fictional romantic interest during the V.E. Day celebrations in 1945.

Reynor starred with Michael Fassbender, Marion Cotillard, and David Thewlis as Malcolm Canmore, the rightful heir to the throne, in The Weinstein Company's feature film Macbeth, directed by Justin Kurzel, which earned an unprecedented ten-minute standing ovation at the Cannes Film Festival and premiered in Edinburgh in September 2015. Following on from the Scottish Film, Reynor next completed shooting John Carney's project playing Brendan in Sing Street, set in 1980s Dublin. It premiered at the 2016 Sundance Film Festival.

Reynor has a younger brother and sister. Reynor owns homes in Detroit, Los Angeles and Ireland. As of 2014, he is engaged to the Irish fitness and fashion model Madeline Mulqueen.

In January 2013, Reynor was cast as Shane, an Irish race car driver, in Transformers: Age of Extinction, the fourth film in the Transformers series. The film was released in June 2014 and co-starred Mark Wahlberg and Nicola Peltz. It shattered worldwide box office records, making just over $1.1 billion and becoming the highest-grossing movie in Chinese history.

In early 2010, he was cast as Robbie, "the boy next door", in the live format, unscripted Dollhouse, directed by Kirsten Sheridan, which premiered at Berlinale 2012. He depicted Richard Karlsen in Lenny Abrahamson's feature What Richard Did, which screened at the 2013 Tribeca Film Festival. The film portrays the fall of a high school rugby star and golden boy whose world unravels after his involvement in an act of careless violence. Reynor earned the Irish Film and Television Academy (IFTA) award for best actor in 2013 for his performance, which paved the way for his booking as a smiling barista in the DreamWorks comedy-drama Delivery Man opposite Vince Vaughn.

His interest in acting began when he played an altar boy on the set of Country, directed by Kevin Liddy, in 1999. He moved to Dublin in 2004 to attend Belvedere College, a private Jesuit school, where he performed onstage in numerous theatrical productions.
