Today an article appeared suggesting what Ryan Reynolds might do to repair his screen image. As I pointed out in the Who's your cast" thread, his films are not performing well this summer and that this could severely damper studio executives selecting him for future work. It was also remarked he is having a tough time faring with critics and audiences alike.

Of the films he is contractually bound to do (Deadpool among them), there was no mention of Repairman Jack. Perhaps the author might be unaware of Jack or Reynolds' "attachment".


At any rate, as someone who works within the entertainment industry, Reynolds needs to find something that will
allow him to be cast against type.

I don't think he is officially attached anymore. That was a few years ago and as the project is languishing in development hell actors, screenwriters, and others attached to the project (and I use the term "project" loosely) have moved on.

Tell me about "Development Hell." Back in 03, John Borg and I wrote a couple of songs for a flick called BLUE DIAMOND. The project fizzled.

Good tunes, though.

i thought ryan reynolds would be the man for the job but i dont even know who could pull jack's character off anymore. i almost want to just say leave it as the novels because there is no topping those stories and id hate to see it butchered by terrible actors and producers. i try to get as many people as i know to read the tomb now before a movie ever came out so they know how good it is in case they make a crappy movie.
