“Fab” wasn’t the only kind remark Jack Nicholson had for his youngest son when speaking to AARP. Au contraire, when asked how he would describe Ray Nicholson, Jack was quick to laud his work ethic.
Pointing out that Ray had sacrificed a vacation abroad to focus on his football training, Jack shared that he was the youngest player to get into his high school’s varsity team — and that even an injury wouldn’t hold him back from reaching his goals. “Ray might not tell you exactly what he’s up to, but once he’s got his mind set on something, he’s gonna stick to it and take care of business, no matter what me or anybody else says,” Jack gushed.

That certainly seems to have been the case with Ray’s latest goal: success in Hollywood. Far from shying away from following in his legendary father’s footsteps, Ray has carved out a career for himself as an actor. Perhaps not all that surprising — after all, Jack did tell AARP that, as kids, both Ray and Lorraine Nicholson were “very comfortable around show business.” As an adult, that’s translated into a number of roles in impressive projects — from Amazon Prime’s “Panic,” to his lead role the 2022 Diane Kruger and Hank Azaria co-starring, “Out of the Blue.” Something tells us, Jack is one proud papa!
