Resume: Jack Reynor

Jack Reynor started off his career slowly with Last Resort Films, with only one film in the first 10 seasons of the studio. However, his upcoming film, Y: The Last Man, will be his fourth film in the last four seasons. In this latest edition of Resume, we will take a look at the filmography of one of the studio's biggest rising stars....


















Season 5

Drake
Director: Christopher Nolan
Writer: Meirad Tako




Budget: $33,000,000
Domestic Box Office: $28,562,061
Foreign Box Office: $30,989,097
Total Profit: -$24,627,851


Jack Reynor's debut film for the studio is definitely one to be forgotten. A misfire from director Christopher Nolan and star Christian Bale, the film was a box office bomb that also failed to connect with the critics.


Season 11

Suzanne
Director: Sally Potter
Writers: Ann Morrow & Harry Wright



Budget: $28,000,000
Domestic Box Office: $18,907,113
Foreign Box Office: $15,478,189
Total Profit: -$15,671,480


Reynor had to wait all the way until Season 11 to work for the studio again, but when he did it was in the critically adored film, Suzanne. Reynor plays the closest thing the film has to a villain and was praised for his performance along with the rest of the cast, which earned them a Golden Reel nomination for Best Ensemble Cast.


Season 12

Days Without End
Director: Doug Liman
Writer: Jimmy Ellis



Budget: $49,000,000
Domestic Box Office: $38,711,928
Foreign Box Office: $32,362,222
Total Profit: -$23,069,539


In Season 12, Jack Reynor finally played his first lead role for the studio in Doug Liman's war drama. The film received mostly positive reviews, singling out Jack Reynor's strong performance, but the film was a flop at the box office.

Torso
Director: Denis Villeneuve
Writer: John Malone



Budget: $81,000,000
Domestic Box Office: $185,803,155
Foreign Box Office: $88,337,482
Total Profit: $7,232,993


Later in Season 12, Reynor played a major supporting role in the epic crime film, Torso, from director Denis Villeneuve. The big budget thriller managed to earn a profit at the box office. The critics were pretty positive about the film, and it received a total of six Golden Reel nominations, including one for Best Ensemble Cast, ultimately winning one GRA for Best Adaptation.


Up Next: Jack Reynor gets another chance with a lead role in the big budget comic adaptation, Y: The Last Man. If the film is a success at the box office, writer Matt Parker and LRF president Phil Dolan have discussed a series of films based on the comics. After that, Reynor will begin training for a major Marvel Universe role for LRF.
