Along with being a “part-time actor,” as per his bio, Ryan Reynolds is a successful entrepreneur with ownership of multiple businesses. Some notable ventures include Aviation Gin, Mint Mobile, and Maximum Effort. In addition to this, he is a co-owner of Wrexham AFC, a soccer club based in Wales.

The Free Guy star joined LinkedIn in 2021 when he partnered with MNTN, a marketing and advertising platform. He announced this jokingly on Twitter, saying “I’m on LinkedIn now. I’m not sure why.” Not a joke anymore, it seems, as he has been very platform active as of late, with over 3 million followers. He lists himself as a former forklift driver and part-time actor. Reynolds has also mentioned all his other businesses there, as any professional would do.

“My skills include writing, re-writing, tweeting, mixing cocktails, backend engineering for software platforms, and watching lower-tier Welsh football matches. Proficiency ranges from excellent to absolutely awful,” his bio reads. Hilariously summarising everything that he does. He is as cheeky as he is a professional! 

Notably, other personalities like Dwayne Johnson and Will Smith have also garnered countless followers here. Additionally, Ryan Reynolds is among the widely followed celebrities on LinkedIn, closely followed by Gwyneth Paltrow and Jennifer Lopez. One can know a lot about his companies from that platform.
