Jack Quaid had a bloody good time at a recent NBA game while doing promo for his upcoming action-thriller flick Novocaine.
The actor, who's the son of Dennis Quaid and Meg Ryan, attended the L.A. Clippers vs. Sacramento Kings game on Sunday, March 9, at the Intuit Dome. While in his floor seats beside Novocaine co-star Amber Midthunder, Quaid was completely banged up, wearing bandages and two arm casts, one reading "Go Clippers." Although he appeared to be bloody and bruised (done with SFX makeup), Quaid seemed to be enjoying himself, even talking to a reporter for a courtside interview. In the video below, Quaid called himself a "lifelong Angeleno" and admitted that he'd never attended a Clippers game before.
Of course, Quaid didn't look rough the entire time, as he started the game wearing just a cast and neck sling before his injuries got progressively worse.
Novocaine is expected to be just as violent when it comes to theaters on March 14. The film also stars Jacob Batalon, Betty Gabriel, and Ray Nicholson, who's the son of Jack Nicholson. In the flick, Quaid plays Nathan Caine, who repeatedly gets injured but doesn't feel pain.
In an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Tuesday night (March 10), Quaid expressed that Novocaine takes withstanding pain to a "hyper real place."
"The whole movie I'm just getting injured a lot. I don't feel any of it, but there's so many like prosthetic bruises and bumps and broken bones... Very gory," he said around the 3:30-minute mark.
The actor also joked that he would FaceTime his girlfriend and friends "without context" while wearing his "bruises."
