Ryan Reynolds: The Truth About Nude Scenes
From: people.com
Written by: Marla Lehner
Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock let it all hang out in their new movie, The Proposal – literally.
The pair, who play co-workers pretending to be an engaged couple, found themselves filming completely in the buff during a rollicking nude sequence, which started out "awkward," but ended up just being business as usual, according to Reynolds.
"Filming a scene that involves being entirely naked and takes a couple days can be a little awkward," the actor, 32, tells PEOPLE. "Thankfully you're there for so long and you're doing it for so long that you dispense with the awkwardness pretty quickly and start to have mundane, normal conversations – the difference being you're not wearing pants."
The movie's director, Anne Fletcher, was set on making the scene as funny – and realistic – as possible.
"The naked scene in the movie was a lot of fun," she tells PEOPLE. "We had a great time doing it. It was the only scene that I ended up rehearsing because I really wanted to shoot them completely naked."
Reynolds and Bullock's moves were expertly choreographed, but the rehearsals tended to get silly, says Fletcher. "We had so much fun laughing at just the possibilities of what we could get away with."
As for Bullock, she credits Reynolds with making her look good. "You know why I looked hot?" she tells Glamour magazine. "Because everyone was looking at Ryan. Our stuff was hanging in each other's faces, and we didn't care."
Asked about being a sex symbol – he also flashes his very buff bod in the Wolverine – Reynolds tells PEOPLE that all attention makes him feel shy.
"I don't really think of myself in any particular way, shape or form that involves being known as sexy," he says. "If I did, I would probably be just like a certified ass----. But for the most part, it's flattering and incredibly sweet, I think."
The Proposal opens June 19.

EXCLUSIVE: Ryan Reynolds Hopes For Ajax
EXCLUSIVE: Ryan Reynolds Hopes For Ajax & Black Tom In ‘Deadpool’ Movie, But What About Cable?

It’s no secret that we’ve been pulling for a “Deadpool” spin-off movie for quite some time now, so we were excited when “X-Men Origins: Wolverine” opened big and a solo Ryan Reynolds adventure was greenlit just days later.
“Well, your voice is part and parcel to that. That’s one of the reasons that I think the movie is happening, and all this is happening,” Reynolds told MTV News, saying some nice things about the MTV team when I caught up with him over the weekend and giving me a status report. “It’s in fast-track development at this point.”
Reynolds had told us previously that he’s a huge fan of Cable, and that he’d like to get the white-haired telepathic mutant into the spin-off; now, however, he’s sounding like it might not happen.
“We’ll see. That is all being discussed,” grinned Reynolds, whose romantic comedy “The Proposal” hits theaters June 19th. “I’m hoping Cable will be in it. Look, I’ve made no secret that I love that character.”
What was even more, interesting, however, was that Reynolds revealed two old Deadpool characters that he cited as likely to make it into the spin-off.
“I also love some of the more preliminary characters at the beginning of the series. I like Ajax — that’s an easier character to put in. And Black Tom,” he revealed. “I think there’s a lot of different villains [we’re considering]; you could do a whole bunch of villains in [the first film], or you could just have Deadpool going up against one guy. We’ll see.”
Reynolds is currently working with the studio to find a writer and director for “Deadpool,” and hopes to shoot the “X-Men” spinoff film sooner rather than later. As a response to the huge opening weekend for “Wolverine,” the mutants’ studio is also developing a sequel with Hugh Jackman’s razor-clawed hero.

Ryan Reynolds Promises a Scarred, Comic Book Faithful Deadpool Movie
Ryan Reynolds Promises a Scarred, Comic Book Faithful Deadpool Movie

If Ryan Reynolds is to be believed, we won’t be seeing any of that Weapon XI nonsense that showed up at the end of “X-Men Origins: Wolverine” in its spin-off “Deadpool” film. Or at least that’s what I got from this brief interview with Reynolds, who while doing promo rounds for his comedy “The Proposal”, got asked questions about the upcoming “Deadpool” movie that was announced almost as soon as the first weekend box office receipts for “Wolverine” came up roses.

Reynolds tells Hitfix:
Well, I’m intimately involved with it. We’re just trying to break a story right now and figure out who the villain is going to be and all that stuff. But, it’s going to be just like the comic books. I’m gonna have a messed up face and you may see some flashbacks of Wade earlier in his life, but primarily what you see is what you get in the comics and that’s the goal. And there is no better place to draw material from then the comics which are incredible.
And just to put a finer point on it, Reynolds said this to IGN about the movie’s ties to the “Wolverine” picture:
“Without saying too much, I can’t imagine that there’s gonna be any tie-in to the Wolverine movie at all.
…So many of the outlets that follow this character are curious what the elements will be, afraid that you won’t be disfigured, that you won’t wear the mask, and I laugh because there’s no way to do this without having the scarring, having the mask, having it all. And it can be done. It’s a no-brainer in that sense. You gotta have the character of Deadpool. You don’t want to just invent something new and call it Deadpool. “
You gotta figure that Reynolds’ involvement in the movie is of utmost importance. At this point, I doubt if anyone, especially the fans, will accept anyone else in the role except Reynolds, which is a good thing because it means he has pull in regards to the movie’s direction. That means if he’s got it in his head to make a comic book faithful Deadpool movie, it’s gonna happen.

Bullock Jokes About Reynolds' Naked Body
From: imdb.com
Sandra Bullock and Scarlett Johansson share a sexy secret - they've both seen hunky Ryan Reynolds naked in recent months.
Johansson is married to the X-Men Origins: Wolverine star and Bullock bared all with the actor in their new romantic comedy The Proposal.
Sexy Scarlett refuses to talk about her personal life and Bullock jokes she was far from impressed with her hunky co-star's body.
She says, "Ryan's surgically enhanced, overly tanned and a bit soft around the middle - and the back hair was a bit much to deal with.
"I'd put him at a four on a scale of one to 10."

Deadpool movie is a dream come true, says Ryan Reynolds
From: coventrytelegraph.net
Written by: David Bentley
RYAN REYNOLDS, who plays sword-spinning mercenary Deadpool in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, says he learned the news of a definite spin-off for his character from internet headlines.
But Ryan - who will next be seen in new comedy The Proposal, due out in June - is very happy to be reprising the comic book role.
He told ET: "I read [news of the spin-off] online like everybody else. I just woke up and it was the headline everywhere. It was a very strange way to learn something.
"I'd by lying if I didn't say I was hoping that that would come of this film. It's somebody I've wanted to play my whole adult life so it's sort of a dream come true."
In an earlier interview he had said: "I've always loved the character. I remember reading one of the Deadpool comic books, and in the comic somebody asks Deadpool what he looks like.
"And he said he looks like a cross between a Shar-Pei and Ryan Reynolds. And I was like, I really, really wanna play this guy at some point. I thought it was pretty cool. It's a guy that knows he's in a comic book. How hard is it to shoot that properly? That's not something they put in Wolverine nor would it belong in that universe.
"This character is something I've been mentioned about for a long, long time now. And the character in the comic book - Deadpool - even mentioned me playing him. So I think it was in some weird way it was a little bit destined."
A second Wolverine movie is in development along with a spin-off for Gambit.

Ryan Reynolds talks 'Adventureland,' 'Wolverine'
From: HitFix.com
t's been more than 10 years since Ryan Reynolds had what was probably his breakout role in the sitcom "Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place." Since that time, he's appeared in at least 20 film and television projects, some of which were solid hits, but it's hard to pinpoint a defining role for the 32-year-old actor.

Since that time, he's appeared in at least 20 film and television projects, some of which were solid hits, but it's hard to pinpoint a defining role for the 32-year-old actor.
Is he the quintessential frat boy who starred in "Van Wilder"? Is he the bearded action star from "Blade: Trinity"? Is he the romantic-comedy Everyman from "Just Friends" or "Definitely Maybe"?
"I get a little cooked doing the same thing over and over," Reynolds tells reporters at the junket for this Friday's (April 3) coming-of-age dramedy "Adventureland." "A lot of people do. The ultimate dream is to be able to do multiple genres and still function properly in those. I love it. I feel fortunate that I'm able to go from genre to genre."
It's beginning to look like 2009 could be a big year for Reynolds, with "Adventureland" opening this month, "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" coming out in May and "The Proposal" hitting theaters this summer. While many actors of Reynolds' profile would only be looking at starring vehicles, "The Proposal" is his only lead role of the group.
