Revisiting Finder’s Fee, the Movie Where We Saw Ryan Reynolds and Darth Vader AKA James Earl Jones Team Up for an Uncanny Crime Drama

Ryan Reynolds is one of the few actors who has played roles in every genre. From
starring in comic and superhero roles to taking the lead in sports docuseries
based on his team, time and again, Ryan has proved himself to be a versatile
actor. While we certainly know him as the Merc with a Mouth from Deadpool or
Adam Reed from The Adam Project, little is known about his role as Quigley in
the 2001 film Finders Fee.

Over the years, we have seen Reynolds star alongside a plethora of talented
stars like Dwayne Johnson and Meghan Markle. Likewise, Finder’s fee is no
exception. The film features a massive ensemble of famous actors. Here is
everything you need to know about the film starring Ryan Reynolds and James Earl
Jones.


FINDER’S FEE HAS RYAN REYNOLDS AS QUIGLEY

Directed by Jeff Probst, the host of the insanely popular TV series
Survivor, Finder’s Fee was one of the finest mystery films of its time. The film
follows the story of a guy named Tepper (Erik Palladino) who finds a lost wallet
on the street. While such incidents are routine, what is rare is the fact that
the wallet also includes a winning lottery ticket inside worth six million
dollars.

Although Tepper does contact the owner, Avery Phillips (James Earl Jones), on
the number found inside the wallet to return it, he finds himself in a moral
dilemma. His regular poker-playing crew, including Quigley (Ryan Reynolds) and
Fishman (Matthew Lillard), arrive for their regular game. Meanwhile, the big
twist of the movie is the poker game involves betting lottery tickets.

Palladino perfectly portrays the tensed guy Tepper making it clear with his
expressions that there is a tense situation. On the other hand, we have Ryan
Reynolds playing a divorced father in serious debt. Despite not having the main
lead, Reynolds

works his part out to perfection. Furthermore, James Earl Jones, aka Darth Vader
[https://netflixjunkie.com/fans-imagine-a-darth-vader-appearance-in-this-star-wars-esque-scene-from-stranger-things-season-4/],
adds a lot of credibility to the cast. We also have Fishman, a gambler in
serious debt played by Matthew Lillard. The Collector actress Carly Pope plays
Carla in the film.

While the plot is a little predictable, the twists and turns in between the film
will work your nerves. Interestingly, Avery Phillips, the owner of the winning
ticket’s arrival at the poker game, is the film’s highlight. Moreover, watching
Tepper try his best to hide the winning lottery ticket from his friends and
return it to the rightful owner is the part to look out for.
