Ryan Rodney Reynolds OBC (born October 23, 1976) is a Canadian and American actor, producer, and businessman. He began his career starring in the Canadian teen soap opera Hillside (1991–1993) and had minor roles before landing the lead role on the sitcom Two Guys and a Girl between 1998 and 2001.
His father was a food wholesaler, while his mother worked in a retail store. The youngest of their four children, Reynolds attended the Kitsilano Secondary School and subsequently joined the Kwantlen Polytechnic University in Vancouver. However, he soon dropped out in a bid to pursue a career in acting.
He wanted more out of life. A close uncle convinced him to enlist in the Air Force. In it he would gain a sense of direction, a sense of pride. After serving in the Air Force and Air National Guard, Ryan decided to use the discipline learned from the military and apply it to academia.
What businesses does Ryan Reynolds own? Reynolds' journey to entrepreneurship started with his film production company and digital marketing agency Maximum Effort.

Ryan Reynolds currently has a net worth of roughly $350 million, according to CelebrityNetWorth. But, Forbes recently reported, the companies he owns or has sold are (or were) worth roughly $14 billion.
Ryan Reynolds has a reputation for being one of the nicest actors in Hollywood, despite the snarky, sarcastic characters he often plays on screen — and it's played a role in his success.
In hopes of finding more reliable and steady work, he dropped out of Kwantlen Polytechnic University after only a few months and moved with a friend to Los Angeles when he was 19 years old.
Reynolds' dad, James, died on Oct. 28 at the age of 74 after battling Parkinson's disease. And while the actor has always been known for his humor, it was his recent turn as the comical, maniacal superhero that helped him transform the pain of losing a parent into something constructive.
People with an anxiety disorder often find ways to cope with occasional events that trigger their anxiety: “I certainly have my own little rituals and those kinds of things that help me stay grounded and keep my mind from spinning out of control,” Reynolds said.
Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively have a swoon-worthy romance. The couple first met on the set of Green Lantern in 2010 but didn't develop a romantic relationship until a year later.
The idea that real besties never take pics together couldn't be more true for Hollywood titans and long-time pals, Taylor Swift and Blake Lively. Despite having a seemingly unbreakable bond, these two ladies are notoriously private about their personal lives – and that extends to their friendship.
The couple first crossed paths in 2010 while filming “Green Lantern.” Lively and Reynolds were love interests in the movie, but were romantically linked to others in real life at the time: Lively was dating her “Gossip Girl” co-star Penn Badgley and Reynolds was married to Scarlett Johansson.
Not only did these two lovebirds date, but they were also engaged (despite never having made it down the aisle). Before their breakup in 2007, the Van Wilder star and the Jagged Little Pill artist were one of our favorite couples in the mid-2000s (besides Kirsten Dunst and Jake Gyllenhaal, of course).
In an interview with The MR PORTER Post, Reynolds revealed that they named their daughter James after his father, who passed away shortly after she was born. "It felt right," Reynolds explained, adding that before his father died, "he got to see her, which makes me happy."
The financial news outlet said she is the first artist to achieve billionaire status solely on the basis of her music, and estimated she has a $1.1 billion fortune.
In April 2023, Reynolds bought a stake in Canadian fintech company, Nuvei. Montreal-based Nuvei is a global payments technology company. 28 "I know about as much about fintech as I did about gin or mobile a few years ago," Reynolds said in a statement released by Nuvei.
