All Ryan Reynolds Upcoming Movies: Complete Guide to His Next Big Roles

In Hollywood’s never-ending talent circus, Ryan Reynolds

is the ringmaster spinning jokes, deals, and drama with a martini in one hand, likely made from his very own gin, now entangled in a cheeky lawsuit. Between charming audiences on-screen and charming Blake Lively

off-screen (four kids and counting), he also finds time to co-own a football club, reinvent phone plans, and crash brand meetings with punchlines. Now, with studios circling like caffeinated hawks, his next film lineup has officially entered its hold-my-tequila era.

While Hollywood hustlers pick lanes, Ryan Reynolds builds highways paved with gin ads, legal curveballs, dad jokes, and deadpan charm. As the scripts stack up and the chaos simmers, Reynolds keeps the show going with a wink. Here are all his upcoming cinematic escapades.

Animal Friends

Childhood friends do not always stay in your head; sometimes, they hitch a ride and demand closure. Animal Friends

sets Ryan Reynolds on a road trip with animated emotional baggage

, co-starring Aubrey Plaza, Jason Momoa, and Dan Levy. Directed by Peter Atencio and dropping May 1, 2026, via Warner Bros., the film blends live action with animation and vibes with trauma. Therapy has never looked this chaotic or this star-studded.

While imaginary friends hit the road, Reynolds’ next move takes a nosedive into Cold War survival; no cartoons, just snow, spies, and Soviet shade.

Mayday

In Mayday,

Ryan Reynolds ditches the punchlines for pressure suits. He plays a recon pilot who crash-lands in the Siberian wild during a Cold War mission gone sideways.

Kenneth Branagh joins in, with directing duo Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daley behind the camera. Backed by Apple TV+, Skydance, and Maximum Effort, this upcoming 2025 thriller is high-altitude tension with frosty stakes and not a wisecrack in sight. Maybe.

While Mayday

keeps him grounded in espionage, Reynolds’ next film unleashes monsters under the bed and beyond in a comedy where bedtime stories bite back.

Everyday Parenting Tips

Bedtime stories usually end with hugs, not nationwide monster invasions. In Everyday Parenting Tips

, Ryan Reynolds plays a father dishing out advice to his kid, unaware that the monsters under the bed are very real 

and very angry. Directed by Paul King and still in development, the film fuses suburban parenting with global-scale kaiju mayhem. It is heartfelt chaos where juice boxes meet jump scares, and the monsters need as much therapy as the humans.

While monsters crawl out from beneath bunk beds, Reynolds resurfaces in his slickest role yet, pulling off heists and hijinks from within Netflix’s treasure trove

of criminal capers.

Red Notice 2 and 3

The museum alarms are ringing again. Ryan Reynolds is back as Nolan Booth in Red Notice 2

,

teaming up once more with Gal Gadot

and Dwayne Johnson. Expect slicker cons, flashier escapes, and enough banter to power a private jet. While part two is locked in for a 2025 Netflix drop, part three is still playing it cool in the vault.

Either way, the crew is back, the cons are bigger, and the getaway plan is pure cinematic mischief.

While Booth plots his next big score, Reynolds switches the spotlight to stage lights, mics, and matching outfits in a reunion comedy with serious boy band energy.

Boy Band

Middle-aged men, minor fame, and maximum cringe, that is the vibe in Boy Band

. Ryan Reynolds teams up with Hugh Jackman in this Shawn Levy project, where the pair may or may not harmonize their way back into the pop culture spotlight.

Plot details are hush-hush, but the concept screams Take That band meets midlife crisis. If pitch-perfect chaos is a genre, Reynolds is hitting the high notes already.

As faux pop stars dust off their dance moves, Reynolds trades in autotune for gunpowder, joining forces with Channing Tatum in a diamond caper gone family feud.

Calamity Hustle

Calamity Hustle

sounds like a crime noir made by people who hate sitting still. Ryan Reynolds plays a washed-up LA detective-turned-PI who gets yanked into the underworld

after his estranged brother (cue: chaos) steals a diamond from a crime lord. Channing Tatum co-stars. The Nee Brothers direct. And studios battled like gladiators to nab the project. With this much charisma on-screen, even the diamonds will sweat.

As the detective digs into dirty diamonds, Reynolds switches from noir to nostalgia, bringing pixelated dragons and arcade glory to life in his upcoming project.

Dragon’s Lair: The Movie

From button-mashing to big-screen action, Dragon’s Lair is getting a live-action makeover. Ryan Reynolds is producing the adaptation of the iconic 1980s arcade game for Netflix

, with James Bobin set to direct. While he is not confirmed to play Dirk the Daring, rumors suggest Reynolds might slip into the role of the charmingly useless knight. Expect quests, slapstick swordplay, and at least one scene involving lava.

From Cold War snowstorms to monster-haunted nurseries, diamond-studded betrayals to dance battles in dad jeans, Ryan Reynolds’ upcoming slate reads less like a filmography and more like an adrenaline-fueled genre gauntlet. Each project feels like a dare he accepted mid-laugh, crafted not just to entertain, but to confuse algorithms and outpace expectations. Studios chase, fans cheer, and his calendar probably cries. This is not just a film slate. It is a patchwork of wild stories, stitched together with wit and wonder.
