Ryan Reynolds Says Hosting the Oscars ‘Would Be a Dream,’ Talks Academy’s ‘Greatest’ Snub and ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ Success


Awards Circuit Podcast: Ryan Reynolds on hosting the Oscars, 'Deadpool & Wolverine' and more. Also: The Roundtable looks at early frontrunners.

The modest deflection is classic Reynolds, but the actor takes serious pride in his work sharing how the film fosters unity through joy, an increasingly rare commodity in 2024: “I think people are looking for reasons to come together in smart and fun and unexpected ways.” Through all his memorable performances, such as “Van Wilder,” “Buried” and “The Adam Project,” Reynolds remains a storyteller at heart, sharing it was films like “Planes, Trains and Automobiles” that made him fall in love with movies. Variety’s “Awards Circuit” podcast, hosted by Clayton Davis, Jazz Tangcay, Emily Longeretta, Jenelle Riley and Michael Schneider, who also produces, is your one-stop source for lively conversations about the best in film and television.
