Rubber B also creates custom rubber watch bands for watches produced by Panerai, Rolex, and Audemars Piguet.
There are few actors on the planet who are as immediately recognizable, or as beloved by audiences today, as Ryan Reynolds. The wise-cracking Canadian has parlayed his success into owning both a cell phone company and a marketing agency, and he’s also a collector of fine watches as well.
Let’s take a closer look at the life, career, and watch collection of Ryan Reynolds in order to learn more about the Canadian transplant.
Who is Ryan Reynolds?
Ryan Rodney Reynolds was born on October 23rd, 1976 as the youngest of four sons. His father, James Chester Reynolds, was a former member of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, and his mother, Tamera, worked in retail sales. Reynolds has been acting since he was thirteen years old.
Ryan Reynolds’s Early Show Business Career
Reynolds made his first notable appearance on Canadian television when he starred as Billy Simpson on the Canadian teen soap opera Hillside in 1991. In 1993, he would make his film debut as a young child struggling with the death of his father in the film Ordinary Magic.
Mainstream Success as an Actor
Reynolds’s breakout role would occur in 1998, when he would get a leading role in the sitcom “Two Guys, a Girl, and a Pizza Place.” The show would prove popular with audiences and help bring Reynolds to the attention of a national audience for the first time. In 2002, upon the conclusion of the show, he would have his first proper starring role in a film, playing the lead in National Lampoon’s Van Wilder. The film was a success and prove that Reynolds could reliably make the transition from television to film.
In 2004, he would appear in his first action film alongside Wesley Snipes in Blade: Trinity, the conclusion to the Blade trilogy of films. Though the film itself received mixed reviews, Reynolds was deemed to be its standout, adding a much-needed sense of humor to the project.
In 2009, Reynolds would play the role of Wade Wilson, better known as Deadpool, for the first time in the film X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Audiences were deeply confused as to why both Reynolds, and the character of Wade Wilson, were underutilized. When he did appear on screen, he was unable to talk for a large portion of his screen time. Reynolds later stated that he regretted this and wanted to play the character again, this time in a more faithful fashion to the comic books.
In 2010, Reynolds would star in the thriller Buried, marking his first proper entry into the genre. The 2010s would see Reynolds alternating between rom-coms, action films, and dramatic thrillers. In 2016, he would finally get the chance to launch his own superhero franchise and revisit the role of Deadpool once again, this time in his own film.
The film, released in 2016, would prove to be wildly popular with audiences, and he would later revisit the role in a 2018 sequel.
What Are Ryan Reynolds’s More Recent Projects?
In 2022, Reynolds appeared in The Adam Project, a Netflix original sci-fi family film. He is also slated to appear in Spirited, a musical retelling of A Christmas Carol that will appear on Apple TV.
What Watches are in Ryan Reynolds’s Watch Collection?
Reynolds owns a number of luxury watches, including a Panerai Luminor Marina, a Panerai PAM 351, and an Omega Speedmaster. He is also a brand ambassador for Piaget and has been seen wearing the Polo S, as well as an Altiplano Scrimshaw Engraving Watch, which is a highly unique watch.
