Ryan Reynolds Quotes About Friends

The ‘friend zone’ is like the penalty box of dating, only you can never get out. Once a girl decides you’re her ‘friend,’ it’s game over. You’ve become a complete non-sexual entity in her eyes, like her brother, or a lamp. — Ryan Reynolds

I'm pretty good at surprising friends and family with gifts. I tend to go towards the more sentimental side of giving. — Ryan Reynolds

I always say that chemistry is something impossible to manufacture. It's either there or it isn't. The fact that you're friends doesn't necessarily equate to great chemistry. — Ryan Reynolds

The fact that you're friends doesn't necessarily equate to great chemistry. — Ryan Reynolds

I know people that have blacked out that I party with that dont do anything irresponsible. They just act drunk, ... I dont think people should ever drink by themselves because they need to have friends around that can keep them in line in case they do blackout. — Ryan Reynolds

Ryan Reynolds Quotes About Life

I have a discipline that has served me very well in my career and in my personal life... and that's gotten stronger as I've gotten older. I've always felt if I don't just have a natural knack for it, I will just out-discipline the competition if I have to -- work harder than anybody else. — Ryan Reynolds

I think we know too much about actors as it is and their personal lives and it's this information age where we're stimulated constantly by the celebrity buzz effect or whatever it is, these web sites and blogs and different things. — Ryan Reynolds

There's a very real possibility in this industry of going out and leading your life and then going home and being a voyeur of your own life. You can literally go watch yourself - where you went last night, what you did, what the things that people presuppose about you. It's kind of crazy. — Ryan Reynolds

Mathematically speaking, it seems impossible that there isn't life out our planet. If you flick on the news, it certainly seems like we have aliens among us. — Ryan Reynolds

I understand the climate we live in and why people are curious. But it's just tough and almost emotionally violent - for anyone, I think - to see your personal life summarized in a sentence. — 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

Ryan Reynolds Quotes About Love

I learned early on to abandon all those preconceived notions you have about other actors and it's served me really well. I usually just try to empty my mind of that. I love meeting actors and I love working with actors. — Ryan Reynolds

I love doing six versions of any joke, so if they'll give me six takes, I'd love to do it. — Ryan Reynolds

I love Canada. It makes a nice hat for America. When America runs out of water, it's the first place I'll go. — Ryan Reynolds

I think the reason that people fall in love with Sandra Bullock is that she doesn't seem to know it in the same way. She doesn't seem to know it in a way that other gorgeous people maybe would. I think that's what makes her so accessible. — Ryan Reynolds

Ryan Reynolds Quotes About Acting

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

Character acting is a much braver pursuit than a guy who runs around and intermittently clenches his jaw muscles. — Ryan Reynolds

Like a lot of people, I've got a self-loathing streak that's alive and well. It acts as a de facto engine when I'm working, but it also has its extraordinary pitfalls, too. — Ryan Reynolds

Ryan Reynolds Quotes About Shooting

Four months after we finished shooting, I'd been in New Orleans shooting another movie and my agent and I were having a bite to eat - actually in London - and he's sitting there and goes, 'Wow, I just can't believe how ripped you are.' — Ryan Reynolds

I noticed while working on Green Lantern that the actor - albeit forefront in the film, obviously, and the key focus for the audience - is kind of the smallest cog in the machine when you're shooting. — Ryan Reynolds

It was comical because you're at a firing range, all these people are so seriously shooting their little guns. — Ryan Reynolds

Ryan Reynolds Quotes About People

There are 7 billion people on the planet. Pretty much everyone is doing sex. It's not like you need to order the "baby-starter kit" on Amazon. Instincts will come to you at the weirdest places and times. — Ryan Reynolds

My tattoo is of a cannon in Vancouver that I got in a fleeting moment of stupidity maybe 14 years ago. A lot of people have really beautiful tattoos, and I get real tattoo envy. But then other people basically just treat them like bumper stickers for their bodies. — Ryan Reynolds

There's a lot of actors I think that appear so much more together as the characters they portray as opposed to the actual people, so I know I've said this before: Hollywood's not a place where you're rewarded for growing up. — Ryan Reynolds

When I meet thousands of fans of the comic - when I realize every one of them can recite the Lantern Corps oath ('In Brightest Day, in blackest night...') - I know how important this is to people. — 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

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

People have their complexities. They have their heroic moments and their villainous moments, too. — Ryan Reynolds

You always get that one customer that decides that your name is boy. Or something. It certainly reinforces a respect I already had for people that are in the hospitality industry. — Ryan Reynolds

I'm going to admit when I'm clueless, and I'm going to ask people for help when I don't know the answer to something. — Ryan Reynolds

Ryan Reynolds Quotes About Movie

There's an old saying that you don't ever finish a movie, you abandon it, and I really believe that. I never walk away from a take and pat myself on the back. — 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 did as much as I could in Vancouver. You can only play so many ex-'Falcon Crest' sons in so many movies of the week before you burn out. — Ryan Reynolds

It's funny, because there are so many stereotypes out there about actors and movie stars in general, but I've had a great opportunity to meet a lot of them, and maybe it's just because they don't behave that way around me, but I rarely see that kind of abuse of power. — Ryan Reynolds

A live action movie is work, and an animated movie is you showing up in your pajamas once every three months, or in my case, just a splash of baby powder. It's not any kind of heavy lifting. — Ryan Reynolds

Graphic novels and comic books offer an easy foothold into that world, and screenwriters and studio execs gravitate toward those, because I think they can see it all right there. It's like, "Here's what the movie looks like." — Ryan Reynolds

I'm one of the most fortunate guys around,I still get to do those kinds of movies, and then I get to do Green Lantern, and I get to do Buried with an auteur like Rodrigo Cortés. I enjoy that I can get away with that. — Ryan Reynolds

But if you do, then it's a high class problem to have. And if you do, you're the architect of that problem. There's no one else to blame but yourself. You've kept doing the same kinds of movies and that's what they want to see. — 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

We started training a month before the movie started and then by five months in, we were at our peak shape. — Ryan Reynolds

Ryan Reynolds Famous Quotes And Sayings

I played rugby for years, and I had a rugby jacket that I lost when I was 14. Somehow, my brother found it in storage 15 years later, and he gave it back to me for my 30th birthday. That was amazing and probably one of the best gifts I've ever received. — 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

'Green Lantern' I screen-tested for twice. I fought for the role. And I'm glad I did, because I felt like I earned it. — Ryan Reynolds

Anyplace of work where you have a cross section of work, you have mini-ecosystem. A little representation of what the planet is. You have the Alpha Dog. You have the young ones, the old ones. The pissed off one. The quiet one. — Ryan Reynolds

When you're growing up in a family without a lot of money and four boys, it can't always be, 'Let's go see a specialist, see if you're okay.' If you got hurt, you just walked it off. — Ryan Reynolds

I think by take eight you're kind of going, "Oh, wow, I don't know if I want to fall entirely off the roof again." That stuff is tough, and I'm also not 21 anymore. I just don't like cement. Cement isn't hilarious any more. — Ryan Reynolds

I'm terrified that I'm genetically predisposed to only having boys. That's frightening. By the time I was 10 years old, and I'm not exaggerating, I knew how to patch drywall. — Ryan Reynolds

I learned discipline from my father. Not in terms of corporal punishment, but being determined in whatever you do, and sticking with it. — 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

I find that I get a little depressed if I don't move my body each day, so sometimes it's just as simple as walking, and other times it's training for a marathon or some kind of personal goal that I'm trying to meet. — Ryan Reynolds

If you ask me to describe my relationship, I mean - words are too clumsy to accurately describe how I feel in that regard, particularly in an interview. It’s a strange thing. — Ryan Reynolds

When I was 21 I think I thought I was 31. I was always kind of doing the right thing, and it wasn't until my late twenties that I became just a completely wild asshole. So I should've had that out of my system already and I was too busy being a grown-up. — Ryan Reynolds

I had a lot of different jobs between fifteen and nineteen. I'd moved out of my house way, way younger than I should have. So I was living out on my own with my brother when I'd just turned sixteen. I did busboy stuff, and worked in warehouses, and did odd jobs, and stuff. I earned me some Pesos. — Ryan Reynolds

I think every relationship is going to go through a few rough patches. Those are what make it stronger, I think. — Ryan Reynolds

He has such a clear vision of exactly what he wanted out of each character, out of each set, out of each wardrobe change, out of each emotional beat, and action. — Ryan Reynolds

Michael Keaton had a great, great career. I do remember when I was a young guy thinking about him, about how he'd had the chance to do it all, so yeah. But, there's nobody where I've said, "Man, I really want that guy's career." — Ryan Reynolds

I'm not one of those actors who romanticizes his trials working out and brags that he can bench press a panda now. — Ryan Reynolds

My father was a police officer before he retired. One of my brothers is also a police officer, and I think they kind of expected I would do something along those lines, like become a fireman or something. — Ryan Reynolds

I believe in energy like dark energies. I believe that when a family moves into a house where six murders took place, there's going to be some bad juju in that house. But then again what the hell is wrong with you to be moving in that house to begin with? — Ryan Reynolds

It's a nice visual. I had just done Blade and I put on more weight for Blade and I thought I might as well use it so I kept it and added a little more. I wanted him to be a big bear. — 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. — 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

It's just that... working on Green Lantern, I saw how difficult it is to make that concept palatable, and how confused it all can be when you don't really know exactly where you're going with it or you don't really know how to access that world properly - that world comic book fans have been accessing for decades and falling in love with. — Ryan Reynolds

A well-tailored suit is important - and I don't like wearing belts with mine - it should be tailored to your body. — Ryan Reynolds

Every time I hangout with Sandra Bullock I think I want to be her. I want to be married to Jesse James. — Ryan Reynolds

I run in a pair of New Balances with a thinner sole, but they're nothing like those barefoot shoes that show all five toes. I have a bit of a phobia about those. — Ryan Reynolds

You have to really make sure that every moment means something, and that every moment, there's a purpose for it. And then you have to blend it all together without it looking like you're really focusing on it. That, to me, was the magic trick that was most difficult for the film [Buried]. — Ryan Reynolds

Hollywood is so strange because a lot of times the battlefield is just a meeting. It's not necessarily like an audition. They've seen clips of you and they know that you can perform and it's a matter of "what is your take on a character"? — Ryan Reynolds

Making a mix CD - albeit slightly old school - is generally a pretty cool gift and something I like to receive, or giving someone a book that moved you. Writing an inscription inside makes it even better. — Ryan Reynolds

I don't necessarily need 400 pounds on my back in the squat rack, and then take a picture of myself and send it out to my Twitter followers, 'Part of the 400 pound club today.' — Ryan Reynolds

When I first moved to Los Angeles I came down there on a wing and a prayer in a way. I had about six weeks worth of money to make it there and that was just from doing a couple of episodes of the X-Files just to finance that trip. I got there and it is either you got to hit it or you got to go and, thankfully, I found a job. — 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

We might be too proud to admit it as guys, but we still need to learn how to manage responsibility, how to face our challenges. — Ryan Reynolds

I'm the guy doing calisthenics. I'm doing jumping jacks and deep knee bends. I work out like a British person. — Ryan Reynolds

Anyone who gets divorced goes through a lot of pain ... I don't think I want to get married again. — Ryan Reynolds

That was my earliest maladaptive coping mechanism I forged when I was a kid. I found that my fists weren't going to do any significant protective work for me, so my mouth was it. Making my father laugh was a way to control him. — Ryan Reynolds

Buried is the strangest film I've ever done. I'll be the only person in the movie. So, I'm still trying to figure that out. I have a short but impactful amount of time to figure that out and that's all I'm doing when I get home. I won't bury myself, of course... that would be a sad end! And then the plan is to do Deadpool after that. — Ryan Reynolds

I'm just a huge fan of Joe Carnahan. He's such a charismatic individual and somebody that just applies every part of himself to the project he's in. — Ryan Reynolds

The stunts on the ground I can do, but I've never been good with heights. — Ryan Reynolds

I read the 'Deadpool' series back in the '90s. I'm not, like, a huge comic book reader, per say, though. I'll check out 'Archie' when I'm in the grocery line, but that's about it. — Ryan Reynolds

My father was swallowed alive by his own anus. It was a terrible way to go. — Ryan Reynolds

I remember that coming to America was scary for me because everything here is just bigger, better, shinier, you know? — Ryan Reynolds

I would sooner be prime minister of the moon than run another marathon. I've been really lucky. I didn't have any toenails fall off or anything disgusting like that. I still have all three nipples. — Ryan Reynolds

I remember being upset because I was finally legal to drink in Canada, and I decided to throw that all away and move to America, where I had to wait another two years. I came here to do improv and to try to join the Groundlings. — Ryan Reynolds

I think we can all use a little more patience. I get a little impatient sometimes and I wish I didn't. I really need to be more patient. — Ryan Reynolds

The woman is skin covered prozac I like to call her. Half the trick to a film like this is keeping a sort of emotional level going and keeping an attitude that induces creativity on the set. You have to be in a good mood for that. You have to be happy to make a comedy I think and Anne sort of ensured that every time by expressing most of her feelings through the exciting medium of dance. — Ryan Reynolds

Sometimes it's just enough to keep your body moving. I get depressed if I don't move. — Ryan Reynolds

New Orleans is one of the most exciting, incredible communities in the world. There's such a rich culture and history, and there are innumerable things to do. — Ryan Reynolds

I'm a bit of an M&M nut. I like the blue ones. I pick them out. — 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

I do have someone that I work with and she is amazing and I definitely don't have unmitigated abusive tendencies towards her. She is very sweet. I also know what that is like. I have heard my agent thinking he has hit mute on the phone before he, you know, physically unleashes broken glass and cellphones at his poor assistant. It is a tough job under the best of circumstances. I understand that. — Ryan Reynolds

There are guys I admire. Like Jimmy Stewart and - a more modern example - Tom Hanks. They managed to do it and have a really high standard for their work, but at the same time they remained incredibly classy and well-regarded personally throughout the process, which I thought was rare and kind of cool. And I'm trying. I try. I haven't thrown any TVs out the hotel window yet. — Ryan Reynolds

Every time I've gotten myself into trouble, it's because I'm choosing a project based on a long-term career goal as opposed to something that speaks to me at the moment. — Ryan Reynolds

I don't personally believe that villains exist. Villains are just a way of saying that somebody has an opposing conviction. — Ryan Reynolds

Well, I came down to LA initially to join The Groundlings, which is an improv comedy group. I didn't get in, of course, becaue I'm not a part of The Groundlings. I just assumed that I could walk in and take over. So they said: "Hit the road Jack." And I ended up getting an agent instead. They sent me out on a couple of leads and I ended up on a sitcom and Van Wilder thereafter and then pantsless with Sandra Bullock. — Ryan Reynolds

I don't get a lot of romantic comedy scripts. — Ryan Reynolds

Guys are lucky: We can wear a suit over and over, just with different shirts and ties. — Ryan Reynolds

Martin Campbell is a director who has that ability to marshal so many forces together and create a film. — Ryan Reynolds

When you have expectations, you are setting yourself up for disappointment. — Ryan Reynolds

I remember exiting the birth canal and suddenly I was in a film. But you are never really in charge of that. The movie came out about five or six months ago in America. It was Miramax in the States and Disney here [fakes falling asleep]. What happened. I love working for Disney, not Walt specifically because he couldn't be more dead, but the company is fantastic. — Ryan Reynolds

The R.I.P.D. picture is like a graphic novel, I guess. I don't know if it's like a typical kind of comic book. But there is great source material for those kinds of films. — Ryan Reynolds

You can be deported back to Canada, absolutely, for a shockingly minor infraction. Little bar fight. Next thing you know you are back in Sascatchuan. Which I'm not from, thank God... But it did concern me. — Ryan Reynolds

When I was younger, I was reticent to be vulnerable on camera and everything I was doing was just a really finely honed defense mechanism from when I was a kid, and I was now using this to make a living on camera. — Ryan Reynolds

There's nothing my brothers and I didn't put a hole in. We turned our home into a Wiffle house. — Ryan Reynolds

I come from a family of cops, and all of them share that understanding that they put their lives on the line. They share and deal with that sense of risk every day, so I got to see that up close. — Ryan Reynolds

I don't know if you've ever had insomnia, but it's a really terrible feeling when it's days and weeks on end. It was kind of awful. — Ryan Reynolds
