'Thunderbolts*' Star Wyatt Russell Responds to ‘Nepo Baby’ Label

Sometimes, the best approach to conversations that may feel a bit repetitive or topics you’re constantly asked about is simply to be as blunt and straightforward as possible with the response.

For Thunderbolts* star Wyatt Russell, who just so happens to be the son of Kurt Russell and Goldie Hawn, that was seemingly his approach when asked about the "nepo baby" label in a previous interview.

While some have argued that life in Hollywood comes more easily to those dubbed as "nepo babies," Russell set that narrative straight during a conversation with Movie Web. In short, the 38-year-old actor has no problem with it, and yes, he'll happily admit that it's far easier.

"People talk about Nepo babies and stuff, and you're like, 'Yeah, 100 percent is it 1000 times easier? F--- yeah.'" Russell said. "Are you kidding me? It's a million times easier."

Although some may feel elated to hear an actor make this statement, Russell's reasoning behind it provides far more context and offers a highly valid point.

"When you get on to set, the thing that actually makes it easier is the fact I've seen this, I've seen this 1000 times, and you have never seen it," he explained. "So it's like family business, right?"

Russell explained that he spent a tremendous amount of time on sets throughout his parents' careers to the point that he was "comfortable" there.

While Russell may have followed his parents into the "family business," he's done an impressive job of making a name for himself in recent years. The arrow is pointing up for the Thunderbolts* actor, and it has nothing to do with who his parents are or the movies they've starred in previously.

And even if it did, it doesn't sound like Russell cares all that much about the "nepo baby" label.
