Ryan Reynolds Celebrates Jennifer Lawrence for Breaking the Hollywood Mold
The actor tells GQ he'll go see a movie 'based exclusively on the fact that she's in it.'
Even heartthrobs can get a little starstruck.
During his recent interview with GQ magazine, Ryan Reynolds revealed that he is a fan of Jennifer Lawrence and her movies.
The Oscar winner's name came up when Reynolds -- who's promoting his upcoming comic book film Deadpool -- was discussing the pros and cons of up-and-coming actors joining film franchises.
A lot of them are incredible artists, and they need to have a franchise in order to pursue a lot of the other interests that they may have," Reynolds explained. "It works as a bit of a conduit to the material that they want to be pursuing when they’re not shooting the big franchise."
When GQ's Zach Baron challenged Reynolds, saying franchises might prevent actors "from working on the type of material they want to be working on," the actor referenced Lawrence's career.
Interestingly, thank God, there’s more and more opportunities for women now than there was. Obviously there’s a pay gap and an age gap in Hollywood that’s kind of insane and at some point needs to be remedied, inch by inch or mile by mile," he said, adding, "
But, you know, Jennifer Lawrence, she’s a movie star. I personally would go see a movie based exclusively on the fact that she’s in it.”
