Ryan Reynolds

Actor

Actor Ryan Reynolds is best known as the star of National Lampoon's Van Wilder (2002), and as Berg on TV's Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place (1998-2001). His first exposure beyond his native Canada was in the cable TV teen drama Fifteen (1990-93). Since then he has worked in TV and feature films, often in comic roles, including the Nixon-era satire Dick (1999, with Kirsten Dunst and Michelle Williams) and the 2003 re-make of The In-Laws (starring Michael Douglas). Since Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place, Reynolds has proved he can play mean as well as funny, as Hannibal King in Blade: Trinity (2004, starring Wesley Snipes) and the brooding dad in the 2005 re-make of The Amityville Horror. His other films include Just Friends (2005), Waiting... (2005, with Andy Milonakis) and The Nines (2007).
