Ryan Reynolds

"I remember that coming to America was scary for me because everything here is just bigger, better, shinier, you know?"

"My father was a police officer before he retired. One of my brothers is also a police officer, and I think they kind of expected I would do something along those lines, like become a fireman or something."

"I'm not a hockey fan, which is probably why I had to leave Canada in the first place."

"I never took acting classes, but I knew I could do it based on the skill with which I lied to my parents on a regular basis."

"I used to backpack when I was younger. I think I can actually say that I can't do the hostel thing anymore, I'm a little too spoiled."

"I'm always terrified at the beginning. Then I start working and get past my fear, which is a real win for me."

"Usually some of the best stuff comes from having something great on the page already, so you're sort of inspired by it."

"I come from a family of cops, and all of them share that understanding that they put their lives on the line. They share and deal with that sense of risk every day, so I got to see that up close."

"It wasn't until my mid-20s that I began to fall in love with it, and see the possibilities, and embrace all the actor crap that I used to get so embarrassed about. In the early days it was all just about cracking one-liners, not being vulnerable."
