Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Ryan Reynolds' most recent movie, If, has confirmed an unfortunate, surprising truth about Ryan Reynolds' career. The 47-year-old actor is known as one of the world's biggest movie stars, having risen to prominence in the 2000s through movies like The Proposal and X-Men Origins: Wolverine.
Movies have been struggling at the box office all year, with Furiosa being the most recent example. However, one of the most significant reasons for the Ryan Reynolds movie bombing is IF's negative reviews on various sites. The film has a brutal 49% score on Rotten Tomatoes, though that's contrasted by a far more generous 89% Audience Score. IMDb found it somewhere in the middle, with a 6.7/10.
In terms of his theatrical releases in the 2020s, Free Guy was a reasonable success, with $331 million at the box office. It's undoubtedly a hit, but it's still nowhere near his Deadpool numbers. On the other hand, Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard was a flop with $70.1 million. Before this stretch, he had a decent run of theatrical release films amid his Deadpool hype in the late 2010s, making his pivot to streaming seem like a strange choice.
Given the return of Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, Deadpool & Wolverine has all the pieces in place to be an enormous hit. Of course, Ryan Reynolds' career isn't in any jeopardy, but it'll be fun to see him get back on track as a movie star who can bring audiences to the box office. Given the underperformance of movies like IF and Furiosa, movie theaters need some exciting star power.
