The Adam Project is already out there on Netflix, and we are quite excited about this adventurous sci-fi Netflix original film. Ryan Reynolds and Shawn Levy worked together in Free Guy. The film explores Adam, a time-traveling pilot from the future who goes back in time to meet his old self. Adam had to make some tough decisions to save his father and save the future of the planet. The whole lead cast, including Ryan Reynolds, Zoe Saldana, Mark Ruffalo, Jennifer Garner, Walker Scobell, and the creator of the film, Shawn Levy have joined together with Entertainment Weekly to explain their experiences on the set of the film.

The film launched on March 11th, 2022, exclusively on Netflix, and already received some positive critical reviews. Peter Travers from ABC News claims, “Ryan Reynolds leads an A-list cast in this Back to the Future nostalgia trip that coasts down well-worn roads instead of paving new ones with fresh imagination. But there is still fun to be this cynicism-free throwback to 80s family entertainment.”
