Ryan Reynolds once tried to enter the Marvel Cinematic Universe through the fan-favorite Iron Man franchise.

When Ryan Reynolds ‘Auditioned’ for the Role of Tony Stark’s Father Anthony Stark

Ryan Reynolds is one of those actors who fought their way into Hollywood since
he began working in the 1990s. The actor started his career with a Canadian
sitcom and later got the lead role in Two Guys and a Girl. Today, he is one of
the most beloved celebrities known for his cynical role in the Deadpool
franchise. The 45-year-old actor impressed fans with substantial comic chops and
remarkable acting all these years. However, the glamourous world of stardom has
tested him and it took years to reach this pinnacle of success. The Free Guy
star has faced many rejections, including when he auditioned for the role of
Anthony Stark.

went there for an audition. “Auditioned for the role of “Anthony Stark”. Didn’t
come even remotely close, but the nice man with the taser escorted me to the
ground,” read the caption.
