About this listen
Ryan Reynolds has been at the center of several major headlines over the past few days, a mix of emotional gestures, strategic public appearances, ongoing business moves, and the ever-present glare of social media and legal controversy. The most poignant story was his heartfelt public message of support for Wrexham striker Steven Fletcher, who was reportedly forced out of the club after its promotion to the Championship. Reynolds, co-owner of Wrexham AFC, called Fletcher “greatness” in an emotional statement, cementing his bond with the team and fans according to GOAL, reinforcing his role as a hands-on and compassionate club boss.
Despite this positive moment, Ryan’s public reputation is under significant scrutiny, largely due to the high-profile legal saga involving his wife, Blake Lively, and her It Ends With Us co-star Justin Baldoni. After Lively sued Baldoni for alleged sexual harassment and a retaliatory smear campaign, Baldoni countersued both Lively and Reynolds, plus their publicist, for $400 million, accusing Reynolds of aggressively berating him and “fat shaming” Lively. This legal battle has cast a shadow over Reynolds, with The List noting that his recent public relations moves, such as presenting at January’s National Board of Review Gala, have been met with skepticism by some fans and social media commentators who see his actions as calculated attempts to rehabilitate his image.
That January appearance at the National Board of Review Gala marked Reynolds’ first public event since the lawsuits surfaced, and it drew plenty of discussion for both his sharp red-carpet look and a speech that, some argue, was more about his own narrative than about the film he presented. Notably, he and Lively also skipped the 2025 Met Gala, a significant absence for a couple so closely linked to the event’s history, as confirmed by PEOPLE.
In the midst of these personal storms, Reynolds remains a formidable presence in business and entertainment. His ventures with Mint Mobile and Wrexham AFC keep him in headlines, while the anticipation for Deadpool 3 continues to mount, promising to cement his blockbuster status once again, as highlighted by BioSnap’s weekly biography podcast. Reynolds is also scheduled to make a high-profile business appearance as a speaker at OMR25 in Hamburg in early May, a nod to his growing entrepreneurial reputation.
Through it all, Reynolds keeps his trademark humor alive on social media, engaging in lighthearted banter and fan interactions. Still, speculation lingers about his next moves, particularly regarding a potential expansion of his production company, Maximum Effort, but nothing is confirmed yet. As recent events show, Ryan Reynolds’ story is unfolding in real time, shaped as much by his business acumen and charisma as by the controversies and challenges of the public eye.
