{{/usCountry}}His character, the spoilt and sadistic Crown Prince (and later King) came to be reviled by fans and Jack was praised for his performance. In 2014, he retired from acting at the age of 22 after his role in Game of Thrones came to an end. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, he said he did it because he wasn’t enjoying it. “I’ve been acting since age 8. I just stopped enjoying it as much as I used to. And now there’s the prospect of doing it for a living, whereas up until now it was always something I did for recreation with my friends, or in the summer for some fun. I enjoyed it. When you make a living from something, it changes your relationship with it. It’s not like I hate it, it’s just not what I want to do,” he said.
In 2020, he returned to acting with a role in the TV show Out of Her Mind, followed by the independent film Rebecca's Boyfriend.
