The youngest of four children, Ryan Reynolds is one of those stars who didn’t have their stardom handed down by famous parents.

Of course, he was drawn to acting from an early stage but it wasn’t a walk in the park for him as he had to give up at some point. Though the Canadian actor who was raised a Roman Catholic failed in his drama class in high school, he didn’t relent in going after his dreams.

The Canadian hunk was born Ryan Rodney Reynolds on October 23, 1976, in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. He has an Irish ancestry and wasn’t born into a celebrity home.

Ryan graduated from Kitsilano Secondary School in Vancouver in 1994 and attended Kwantlen Polytechnic University, also in Vancouver which he dropped out from. His career as an actor started in 1993 when he got a role at the age of 12, marking his first professional acting job. He was cast in a Canadian teen drama which was first called Hillside and later renamed Fifteen when it was aired in the United States by Nickelodeon. The show ran from 1991 to 1993 and didn’t give Ryan the attention he was looking for. After the show ended, he starred in several Canadian TV sitcoms and played small roles in TV films to make ends meet. Still, the limelight didn’t find him. Thus, the lack of success forced him to return to Vancouver with the decision to quit acting.

Ryan’s film career took off in 2009 when he played the mercenary Deadpool in the box office world-class hit “X-Men Origins: Wolverine” starring .

Is Ryan Reynolds Gay?

We really didn’t see this one coming but it actually came to pass that Ryan Reynolds and Andrew Garfield locked lips at a very public event. The two decided to steal the show when Ryan Gosling was walking up to the stage to accept his award for Best Actor in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy at the 2017 Golden Globes.

Perhaps Ryan was trying to make the most of his time at the event since he didn’t win a Golden Globe for his performance as Deadpool. Notably, he had been nominated for the same award which Gosling scooped.

Regardless of his actions both in movies and in real life, Ryan seems to be only interested in the opposite sex. At least we know he has been married to two and dated many others.
