Congratulations Ryan on a great year from all your fans at RyanReynoldsFan!!

Hey everyone! DreadCentral.com has posted some new stills of Ryan from his upcoming film “Buried” and you can view them here. I’ll try to find some postable ones that I can add to the gallery but for now go check those out!

His work in blockbusters (’Wolverine’ and ‘The Proposal’) and a lovable indie (’Adventureland’) made him stand out this year.

Ryan Reynolds might want to quit while he’s ahead. How else can the man top 2009, when he starred in two of the 10 highest-grossing movies of the year (”X-Men Origins: Wolverine” and “The Proposal”), as well as the critically lauded indie “Adventureland”?

Then again, the 33-year-old can’t go into hiding anytime soon. This year, he signed on to two big-budget franchise flicks, “Deadpool” and “Green Lantern.” Lucky for him, fanboys couldn’t be more excited to see his takes on both iconic comic book characters. As Thanksgiving approaches and we dole out gratitude to our favorite actors and filmmakers of the year, MTV News is delighted to dub Ryan Reynolds as the guy we’re most thankful for in 2009.

In an exclusive chat, the man himself discussed reworking an iconic comic book character in “Wolverine,” making the biggest rom-com in history with “Proposal,” and what the future is going to look like now that he’s becoming both Deadpool and Green Lantern.

MTV: I have to congratulate you, because we always anoint a person we are most thankful for, and this year it is you. Congratulations, officially.

Ryan Reynolds: Wow, that has only ever been bestowed upon me by Tammy Reynolds, my mother. This is nice.

MTV: Do you have a speech prepared?

Reynolds: I have absolutely nothing but a series of simple grunts.

MTV: When you take a look at this year, does it feel like, in the scheme of things, it’s a landmark year, personally or professionally?

Reynolds: It’s been probably the most unbelievable year of my life. Starting with setting some goals that I didn’t think would be possible several years before, running a marathon, getting married — the year has been incredible, all across the board. The fact that “Green Lantern” is something that’s about to get going full-steam pretty soon, and then there is “Deadpool” on the horizon as well. If you asked me if this would be happening three years ago, I would have kick-f—ed you back to where you were from.

MTV: All these things we’re talking about are things you set in motion. You pursued them, you kind of went after them. Does that make it a little bit more gratifying?

Reynolds: It’s incredibly validating and gratifying when you can see that you can manifest something that you desperately want or a goal that you have. This is a difficult industry to get anything made, let alone a passion project, so when you see people understand what your vision is and come aligned with that common goal, it’s pretty cool. I’m including all the creative types that are actually involved with “Deadpool” and “Green Lantern,” because those guys want to make an authentic movie, and that’s something a few years ago studios disregarded.

MTV: You have done everything from a publicity tour with Betty White to trying on the Green Lantern costumes. So, in looking back at the year, is there a moment that sums it up, that encapsulates what 2009 was about?

Reynolds: I think, seeing the prototypes for the Green Lantern costumes was a huge moment. It was a moment when I was like, “This is happening, and it’s happening in the right way.” That’s a pretty cool, definitive moment for me.

MTV: Were you happy with the incarnation of Wade Wilson and Deadpool in “Wolverine”? Do you think you captured what you wanted to in the first look at Wade?

Reynolds: Yeah, I think the initial moment of the sequences that involve Wade, I think it did. It’s always difficult to fully embrace something that isn’t perfect, in terms of staying true to the source material. So it was a little bit frustrating. I really wanted to play Wade, and I really wanted to play Deadpool, and it would kill me to see someone else play them. I had a kind of ham-fisted attitude that it had to be perfect, but it doesn’t. The movie’s called “Wolverine,” it’s not called “Deadpool” or “Wade.” I thought it was a nice little wink and tip of the hat to things to come. Finding the tone of that character alone is such a difficult prospect. I’ve been in so many meetings lately about “Deadpool” and meeting all these writers. Everyone is always looking for that one line, “What is that character?” and for me it’s kind of like, “There’s a guy, and he’s in a highly militarized comedic fame spiral.” That’s not an easy thing to write — an entire screenplay, let alone a franchise. I had a blast playing Wade. Every line I had in that was stuff I thought he would say. It wasn’t something that a writer said to me. It was fun to really create that character, including everything he spits out of his awful mouth.

MTV: Does your love of “Green Lantern” and Hal Jordan go back far?

Reynolds: I’ve known about “Green Lantern” my whole life, but I’ve never really followed it before. I fell in love with the character when I met with [director] Martin Campbell. When I sat down with him, I really got what it is that this guy is all about. When you have a guy like Martin Campbell, part of his charm is that he has ba–s of titanium, and the other part is that he’s slightly crazy, and you have to be to take on something with the scope of “Green Lantern.” He’s less of the director and more of a general. He just really knows strategies, he knows the intricacies, and his attention to detail! It’s infectious. I sat down with him, and I could not even believe what he was saying. When I went to the meeting, I was entirely cynical. I thought, “What the hell, I’ll see what they have to say,” and I left the room with a completely different perspective.

MTV: Now about this little romantic comedy, “The Proposal.” You and Sandra were friends going way back. Were you confident when making the film that it would translate to the screen?

Reynolds: She and I had been friends forever, but I don’t think that necessarily translates into chemistry. Chemistry is something that either does or doesn’t happen. We discovered that on the first day of rehearsal, and that’s when we stopped rehearsing and decided to save it for film.

MTV: Is this one of those onscreen pairings you think could benefit from returning to in the future?

Reynolds: We wouldn’t do a sequel, but we’re looking for something to do together again. Everyone used to do it back in the day. I’m not comparing us to [Spencer] Tracy and [Katharine] Hepburn, but they worked together all the time. So hopefully we can find something that works.

Ryan was all smiles as he stepped out in New York City last  (Nov 30th).  I’ve updated the gallery with some photos… enjoy!

It looks like Anna Faris is going to have a very busy 2010. A couple of weeks ago we told you about her plans to visit Jellystone Park next year when she stars in the Yogi Bear movie. Now we have news today of two more projects that will star the talented young comedienne. She has just signed on to the romantic comedies Wedding Banned with Robin Williams and TMI with Ryan Reynolds.

According to THR, Anna Faris and Robin Williams will co-star in Wedding Banned. The story will revolve around a long-divorced couple who kidnap their daughter on her wedding day to prevent her from making the same mistakes they did. As you can imagine, the parents rekindle their relationship as they elude cops and the angry groom. Faris will star as the daughter and Robin Williams is currently signed on to play the father. The roles of the mother and the angry groom have yet to be cast and there is currently no director attached to the project. However, the film will be written by the writing team of Jack Amiel and Michael Begler who gave us 2006’s The Shaggy Dog.

Meanwhile, Variety reports that Faris will also co-star next year in TMI with Ryan Reynolds. The film’s premise will be that while honesty may be the best policy in a relationship, that “too much information” might not be the best thing. The screenplay comes from Kirsten Smith (The House Bunny) and Marc Klein (Serendipity). Reynolds will also be an executive producer on the film and it could be his next project he’ll do after he finishes shooting on Green Lantern.

Both projects look like that will begin filming sometime next year after Faris is done with Yogi Bear.
