In the years that followed, Reynolds continued to take on a variety of roles in film and television, including the romantic comedies Just Friends (2005) and The Proposal (2009).

Throughout his career, Reynolds has earned critical acclaim and commercial success for his performances in film and television. He has been nominated for multiple awards, including a Golden Globe for his role in Deadpool.
His Personal Life
In his personal life, Reynolds has been married to actress Blake Lively since 2012, and the couple has four children together.
Reynolds is also known for his philanthropy and has been involved with various charities and organizations over the years, including the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research and F*ck Cancer.
Ryan Reynolds In Business

He has also made waves in the telecommunications industry, as an investor and spokesperson for Mint Mobile.
In April 2021, it was announced that Ryan Reynolds, along with fellow actor Rob McElhenney, had purchased the Welsh soccer team Wrexham AFC. The purchase was celebrated by fans and local officials, who praised Reynolds and McElhenney for their commitment to the community and the team’s future.
Reynolds has since expressed his excitement for the new venture, stating that he is looking forward to being a part of Wrexham’s legacy and helping to grow the team’s fan base.
