Ryan Reynolds has been known for his dedication to his work but it did cost his kids once when he left them at school.

How Ryan Reynolds Left His Kids at School Over His Method Acting Approach for This Role in 2019

The world knows it! Ryan Reynolds [https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/ryan-reynolds/]
is a complete family man. Being the father of four adorable daughters, he always
stays alert to their wellbeing. Or if we say in Blake Lively
[https://www.netflixjunkie.com/tag/blake-lively/]‘s words “he races home” to
check on his family no matter where he is going. Despite shooting movie projects
and playing the role of co-owner in his soccer club, he still finds time to help
his wife with their children. Seeing all the efforts he makes for the people he
loves: could anyone believe that he once left his kids at school for a movie
role? Well, he did!

Ryan Reynolds took the lead role in the 2019 adventure drama Pokémon Detective
Pikachu. He voiced this iconic fictional species that has remained a
fan-favorite for decades in the Pokemon franchise. And taking this character was
indeed something challenging and adventurous for the actor who wanted to give
his best. To talk about his preparation for the role, he dropped a video on
social media in 2019 explaining the entire process.



The 46-year-old revealed that he used ‘method acting’ to immerse into this 30cm
tall yellow creature. Reynolds spent one year being this exceptionally
intelligent detective and vanished into it. So when he got the role, the actor
was on his way to pick his girls up from school. “Well, I didn’t show up at
school because Detective Pikachu doesn’t know who those two little girls are.
Who are they?” he said.

After his comment, the camera moved to his wife, who sat with a straight face
and said, “They’re our daughters.” The Free Guy star then channeled his humorous
side, saying that the character does not have a wife, which means he did not
have any children.


RYAN REYNOLDS DID PROPER RESEARCH ON PIKACHU

Moving forward, Ryan Reynolds gave fans insight into the grueling process which
tested his limits. He deeply researched Pikachu by reading books. In fact, he
tried to be like he physically showed one of his crawling shots in the clip and
even tried to lose weight, but doctors stopped him. Well, all these efforts
certainly came out fruitful in his portrayal because the film was a tremendous
success.
