Ryan Reynoldssaid in a Vanity Fair interviewthat he has this thought about life, saying “we tell ourselves stories that aren’t necessarily true,” and he did the same when he tried to justify his complicated relationship with his father before he passed away. Shawn Levy, the director ofThe Adam Project, added “There’s the notion of confronting your younger self, who might just see things more authentically than you have come to narrate for yourself.” He also added that not only was Walker Scobell able to go toe-to-toe with Ryan Reynolds, but Walker came into the film a huge fan of the star.
The photos and Ryan Reynolds' comments are expected to build anticipation. Especially since he’s expected to take ashort break from actingbefore he returns inDeadpool 3.A trailer forThe Adam Projectis expected to be imminent. Ryan Reynolds has done a lot of action comedies throughout the last couple of years, it’s very exciting to see him tackle a film that has a little dramatic edge to it. With the interviews he’s given, it seems to be very personal and cathartic to him, so expectations for his performance should be sky-high.
The supporting cast also seems promising, and he has a previously established working relationship with the director. They just recentlyworked onFree Guytogether, and it was received well amongst critics and audiences alike. The recipe for a great treat of a movie is all there.
