More quotes by Ryan Reynolds
It's tough. It's very tricky to throw a morally flexible character onto the screen and have an audience empathize. It's always an exercise in restraint.
Ryan Reynolds
Acting has given me a way to channel my angst. I feel like an overweight, pimply faced kid a lot of the time - and finding a way to access that insecurity, and put it toward something creative is incredibly rewarding. I feel very lucky.
Ryan Reynolds
There are so few surprises left in life. We've gotten so addicted to knowing. It's the Google generation. We want the answer to everything right now!
Ryan Reynolds
I've always just liked working. I like being a working actor.
Ryan Reynolds
I think that people see that Sandra Bullock has an ability to laugh at herself and you just don't find that too often.
Ryan Reynolds
It's just a moment that doesn't feel 100-percent truthful, a kind of a square peg/round hole situation. Which is why the preproduction on a movie is so important, because you can't just push those through.
Ryan Reynolds
My very worst day on 'Green Lantern' was nowhere near as difficult as my finest day on 'Buried.'
Ryan Reynolds
Everyone thinks their baby is a genius. People find it delightfully refreshing when I tell them, My baby? Totally average. Like, 100 percent average.
Ryan Reynolds
Martin Campbell is a director who has that ability to marshal so many forces together and create a film.
Ryan Reynolds
Hollywood is like a stock market - you're always up and down and all around. With age, you start to invest less in the outcome of that.
Ryan Reynolds
For the most part Hollywood is a world of imagination.
Ryan Reynolds
Everybody thinks it's glamorous and this spy versus spy stuff is so exciting, but working in that industry and being a CIA operative, like a field officer, is tough. That's a difficult job that usually dismantles their lives in some capacity.
Ryan Reynolds
I'll say this: The media wasn't invited to my marriage, and they're definitely not invited into the divorce.
Ryan Reynolds
I've done things to my body, mechanically, that I'll never do again. I've done stunts that I shouldn't have done 10, 11, 12 times. I've broken a ton of bones on sets.
Ryan Reynolds
Fragrance is a very personal gift, and I think that's why it makes a great Christmas gift. There's a very distinct signature to it, so if you give it as a gift, I like to think that it's from a person that thinks very highly of you.
Ryan Reynolds
When I do comedy, my brain sort of locks up in the infinite possibilities. That's where I get sort of lost. I think, Oh, there are six other jokes that we could say here! I feel more at home with drama.
Ryan Reynolds
Wouldn't that be an amazing super power? Knowing where to press on someone's neck to make them immediately urinate.
Ryan Reynolds
Honestly, I think it's dumb luck that I'm able to kind of get away doing different types of films in different genres. There's always a tendency to kind of stick with what works, or stick with one particular kind of brand or movie. But so far I've been getting away with it, so I'm going to continue to do that for as long as I can.
Ryan Reynolds
The best directors I've worked with, they all have the same thing in common. They're the first to say, 'I don't know.' If you ask them, 'How are we actually pulling off this movie?', they'll just shrug and go, 'I have absolutely no idea.'
Ryan Reynolds
I don't like seeing the stuff that's not polished. It's harder for me to step away from it and watch that.
