Why are we talking about this? Do you remember the Netflix film The Adam Project starring Ryan Reynolds? Well, the little boy, Walker Scobell, who played the young Reynolds in the film, made us think about it.

When the Netflix film, The Adam Project, hit the streaming giant in 2022, the actors appeared in several interviews promoting their sci-fi film. During one of their interviews with Today, both the film stars talked about how much they enjoyed working on the film. However, until the arrival of Scobell, the world thought there was only one Ryan Reynolds. He soon proved the world wrong when he started answering questions about the Canadian actor.
