Who is Jack Schumacher?
Schumacher is a star on the rise. Not much is known about his background, but the actor previously told Pop Culturalist that he was “obsessed with movies” from a young age. “I would watch a movie, and I’d immediately rewind it and start it again,” he said. “Film has always been an escape for me. It was what I was most interested in, but I never pursued it for whatever reason. I was always interested in acting; I always daydreamed about it, but it never seemed like the realm of possibility.”
He went to college and realized his love for acting when he took a beginner’s acting class as a senior. “From there, I immediately went over to Second City and started taking classes there. Then it became my only focus, and it became my career. It’s been exciting,” he added.
