A Look Back at Ryan Reynolds' Shape-Shifting Movie Style
From Just Friends to Deadpool.
Ryan Reynolds, Hollywood megastar and king of the Twitterverse, shows a lot of variety on screen. It's not only about his characters, but also about the characters' presentations. In fact, they're often a bit of a makeunder for the Objectively Attractive actor. But by and large, they're pretty damn stylish. Here's a brief history of his most notable movie looks.
'Just Friends'
It's fun to imagine Ryan Reynolds as an awkward, socially inept teen. Thumbs up to that sweater is right.
Verdict: Good
'The Proposal'
Sandra Bullock's boss-lady prowess was the real winner of this film, but guy-next-door Reynolds wasn't shabby either. Great field jacket.
Verdict: Still good
'Green Lantern'
Reynolds, as the super hero no one really asked for.
Verdict: CGI
'The Change-Up'
Messy hair, sloppy hoodie. And yet...
Verdict: Lazy good
'The Voices'
Noted: Don't put Reynolds in a buzz cut.
Verdict: Pass
'Woman in Gold'
OY the accountant haircut. And wardrobe.
Verdict: No good, very bad
'Self/less'
Who in their right mind can see past this lonely waistcoat atrocity?
Verdict: Beyond repair
'Deadpool'
Scruffy works for Reynolds. As does that coat.
Verdict: Anti-hero good
'Criminal'
This haircut is inspirational. So is the beard. And the jacket. And also the wall he's touching.
Verdict: Firm yes
'The Hitman's Bodyguard'
Reynolds looks so good in a tailored suit it almost makes you want to hate him. Almost.
Verdict: Very good
