John Owen Lowe Weighs In on Nepo Baby Discourse: ‘If You’re Not Grateful, You’re Doing Something Wrong’

Rob Lowe is opening up about the life parallels in his new series Unstable with his son John Owen Lowe.

A family affair! Rob Lowe and son John Owen Lowe have teamed up on a handful of projects in the past, but their latest collaboration — the new Netflix series Unstable — is their most personal one yet.

Anthony Michael Hall, star of "Weird Science" and "Halloween Kills," turned 55 on Friday. Hall rose to fame as a member of the infamous Brat Pack, a group of young actors who frequently appeared in movies together throughout the 1980s, including "St.

Brillstein Entertainment Partners is looking to “fuel the momentum” of its production company after striking a first-look deal with Paramount Television Studios.

Hilary Swank, 48, took to Instagram on Easter Sunday to share the happy news she has given birth to twins. The Hollywood actress posted a picture of herself late last night holding her newborns in her arms as she watched the sunset. Hilary, who has given birth to a baby boy and girl, looked serene as she looked out to sea in a clean, white bathrobe.

Two of a kind? Rob Lowe and son John Owen Lowe may star on Netflix’s Unstable together, but they are not sure if Tom Schwartz and Tom Sandoval better hold that title.

Rob Lowe and his 28-year-old son, John Owen Lowe, got downright serious — and a bit emotional — during their latest appearance on .The father-son comedic duo had a lot banter during Thursday's show, trading barbs and zinging each other. But the conversation turned serious, after Barrymore opened up about her sobriety journey and sharing that her family supports «me through my pitfalls.»She then commended Rob and John Owen for supporting «each other through every high and low.» Rob chimed in and talked about being in recovery for 33 years now.

Rob Lowe revealed he had to cut his honeymoon short to film "Wayne's World" in 1992. Lowe appeared on "The Drew Barrymore Show," where the two talked about some of his hit films. "I had to come back from my honeymoon to do that movie," Lowe admitted.

Drew Barrymore is sharing her fangirl moment with Rob Lowe.

One was fiercely focused, the other accident-prone. They both made it.

There is no code to crack when it comes to making marriage work, but "Unstable" actor Rob Lowe has a few secrets he's willing to share after being married for over three decades.  "It is not just Hollywood, it's everywhere. Marriage is hard.… It can be hard – marriage is not hard. If it were hard, nobody would do it.

John Owen Lowe isn’t afraid to roast his famous father Rob Lowe, even if it’s on national television.

John Owen Lowe addressed his status as a “nepo baby” in a new interview.

“some dialogue,” he confided most in his therapist about the show’s striking resemblance.“The truth is, when I’m really feeling like, it’s all getting too meta for me, he’s not the right person to go to because it’s about him, so I have to find other resources,” John Owen said.

Emily Longeretta When John Owen Lowe began writing on “9-1-1: Lone Star,” which stars his dad, Rob Lowe, he couldn’t resist venting to members of his team. His complaints about going “stir crazy” were so funny that they told him to pitch it as a show. With that, Netflix’s “Unstable” was born: The sitcom, which premieres March 30, stars the two actors and co-creators as estranged father and son Ellis and Jackson. The comedy is fictional — but rooted in reality. “Jackson’s estranged from his dad. It never got that bad between my dad and me,” Lowe, 28, says. “[Jackson is] a little more socially awkward and lost than I am. I did experience pockets where I didn’t have an identity, because of what it was like growing up with a father who sort of sucks the air out of every room you’re in with him.” 

Daniel D'Addario Chief TV Critic The conversation about “nepo babies” has grown tiresome — and not just because “nepo baby” itself is such an unattractive turn of phrase. (Was “nepotism case” too hard to pronounce, somehow?) The general outrage over the idea that children of famous actors find themselves drawn to acting, ginned up by an artfully provocative recent cover story in New York magazine, has tended to elide the simple fact that said children often find themselves acting because they share talents with their parents, who are famous for good reason. So it is with John Owen Lowe, who seems like a slightly altered carbon copy of his father Rob (of “The West Wing” and “Parks and Recreation,” among others), with the smarm ironed out. Together, they’re headlining “Unstable,” a new Netflix comedy that’s infuriatingly better than it needed to be. Lowes père and fils share executive producer credits with Victor Fresco and Marc Buckland, two creatives with long comedy résumés. And what might have been expected to look like a Lowe family vanity project — Rob Lowe has built a sort of performed vanity into his public persona, after all — has ended up as a sharply written comedy with some genuinely great lines.

Rob Lowe is one proud dad.

It's been 40 years since audiences were first introduced to Ponyboy — played by C.Thomas Howell — and his gang of greasers, making the cast of "The Outsiders" household names. Based on the 1967 novel with the same name, the movie tells the story of Ponyboy and his struggle between right and wrong.

BreAnna Bell “It was a lot of highs and Lowes,” John Owen Lowe said of working with his famous father, Rob Lowe, on Netflix’s latest comedy “Unstable.” At the show’s premiere on Thursday night in Hollywood, the father-son duo spoke with Variety about their unique dynamic — and how its portrayal on the show isn’t so different from real life. John Owen plays Jackson, the son of Ellis Dragon (Rob Lowe) in the workplace comedy. Ellis is a quirky biotech genius who finds out he may lose his job when he spirals following the death of his wife. With the company at risk of imploding, his employees seek out the one source they feel can help him at this time: his son.
