There are roles that seem to be born just for one actor. Like Robert Downey Jr. is the only Iron Man, Hugh Jackman is always Wolverine and Deadpool can only be Ryan Reynolds.

Instead of choosing a business path like his parents or following the example of his two older brothers in the police profession, the youngest child in the Reynolds family chose to pursue an acting career when he was only 15 years old. Possessing a handsome face and an ideal height of 1m88, it is not difficult for Canadian Ryan Reynolds to soon be noticed by Hollywood and given many opportunities on screen. But only with Deadpool can people see the pinnacle of Ryan’s career where talent and passion intersect.

Although he works hard in many different genres, from action-comedy, horror to romance, after more than 20 years of artistic activity, Ryan Reynolds has still not really made a breakthrough. Even with a series of failed starring works such as Safe House, R.I.P.D, Self/less and especially the superhero “disaster” Green Lantern (2011), Ryan made audiences and producers wary. because of the ability to create “spray bombs”.

Things only really changed when Deadpool achieved great success in 2016. At the end of its release, the film earned 783.1 million USD (while the budget was only 58 million USD) and received sobbing praise. of critics and the public. The film even received two prestigious Golden Globe nominations (Best Comedy – Musical and Best Male Lead in a Comedy – Musical for Ryan Reynolds himself). It can be said that Deadpool “saved” the career of the actor from the land of maple leaves. But to get together, both Deadpool and Ryan had to go through a long and bitter road.

Deadpool and destiny are inseparable

Deadpool is a very famous anti-hero character in Marvel comics. With a bubbly, humorous personality, fond of swearing, and the super ability to “break the 4th wall” (a term that refers to the character’s ability to chat, converse with the audience, and even perceive himself as a character). fictional character), mercenary Wade Wilson/Deadpool is a very unique superhero model.

Ryan Reynolds – The sexiest guy in the world – Photo 4.But bringing Deadpool to the screen in the most honest and charming way is not simple.

Because even for Ryan Reynolds – a passionate, devoted fan of Deadpool – it took 11 years and a “life-threatening accident” to bring the foul-mouthed mercenary who likes to wear red shirts to life. successful movie.

“Deadpool is very feminine. At least that’s how I see him.” – Ryan shared in Variety’s article on January 3, 2017. In 2004, Ryan Reynolds “fell in love” with Deadpool when he accidentally saw a comic book with a scene of the mutant spitting on a photo of himself. That April, in Deadpool and Cable#2, Wade described himself as looking like “Ryan Reynolds’ face crossed with a shar-pei (a Chinese bulldog) face”.

Drinking at the wrong glance, the drunkenness followed for the rest of his life. Ryan then devoted a lot of energy to “conceiving” the Deadpool adaptation project. During the making of Blade: Trinity (2004), directors David Goyer and Ryan Reynolds discussed the idea of making a separate film for Deadpool. The project was shelved, but Ryan Reynolds still has passion for the character.

In 2009, Ryan Reynolds first had the opportunity to portray Deadpool in the movie X-Men Origins: Wolverine. But when he covers his mouth, Deadpool is no longer Deadpool. Ryan’s failure as Deadpool lies in the overall failure of the entire movie.

Even though he was busy with a series of his own projects after that, Ryan Reynolds still kept dreaming about the “Deadpool dream”. Also in 2009, he and two screenwriters Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick completed the rough script for the red-shirted mutant’s own movie but was ignored by Fox. In 2014, Ryan Reynolds boldly released a sample video about Deadpool on social networking sites. The audience’s excited interaction contributed to helping Ryan’s burning desire come true in 2016.

“When the video was released on the internet, it created a huge impact. Every Twitter, Facebook and Instagram account wanted the film to be made.” Although he did not reveal who leaked the footage, Ryan also implicitly affirmed that it was that action that convinced Fox producers to put their trust in him (again).

Thank goodness, the real Deadpool is here!

Talent alone is not enough

Deadpool changed Ryan Reynolds’ career, taking him from a notorious “box office failure” to an A-list star in Hollywood. But with Deadpool, we cannot properly evaluate Ryan’s acting ability. Because simply, he is just expressing himself.

Before Deadpool, Ryan Reynolds was known as one of the handsome actors with transformative and emotional acting skills. In the psychological horror and comedy film The Voices (2014), Ryan fascinated viewers when he transformed into the paranoid Jerry – a man with a double life, working as a transportation worker during the day and working as a transportation worker at night. is a serial killer. Or with Definitely, Maybe (2008) – the movie version of the series How I Met Your Mother, Ryan showed his charming acting ability as well as good interaction with female co-stars.

“Buried” is considered the film that reveals Ryan Reynolds’ peak acting ability.

The science-fiction film The Nines (2007) or the romantic film The Proposal (2009) are other examples that show that Ryan can act well in all types of roles, from horror and psychological to humorous and romantic. side. However, the peak of Ryan Reynolds’ acting probably belongs to the movie Buried (2010). Throughout 90 minutes, the film revolves around the story of a truck driver buried alive in a coffin. All developments are confined to a small closed space, with a single person. Ryan Reynolds has proven that he not only portrays the character’s troubled and complex psychology well but also has a special power in captivating the audience from the beginning of the film to the end.
