Ryan Reynolds: High School Hero, Business Mogul, and Deadpool's Alter Ego
Ryan Reynolds BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Ryan Reynolds had a characteristically eventful week, blending Hollywood charisma, surprise real-world appearances, and continuous business buzz. Arguably most memorable, he stunned students and faculty by dropping in on rehearsals at Staples High School in Westport, Connecticut. As reported by Patch and also featured in 06880DanWoog, Reynolds spent an hour with the drama club cast and crew of Les Misérables, sharing personal career insights and later filming a promotional video with the excited teens. The gesture, which included Reynolds openly admitting he never graduated high school himself, got widespread media and social media attention and demonstrated his enduring connection to education and mentorship. Local outlets highlighted the cultural moment in Westport, describing students as energized and inspired by the Hollywood A-lister’s candor and support for arts education.
Business-wise, Reynolds’s entrepreneurial streak continues to make headlines. Jacobs Media reviewed his recent windfalls from the $1.35 billion sale of Mint Mobile to T-Mobile, and Impact Wealth placed his 2025 net worth at a towering $350 million. The Deadpool star’s transformation from acting force to business juggernaut remains a top industry story. He also trends for unconventional business moves, this week unveiling, along with partner Rob McElhenney, ambitious new plans for a Wrexham lager brewery—another sign that their ownership of Wrexham AFC has blossomed into a multi-pronged brand expansion, according to Yardbarker.
On the entertainment front, Reynolds’s name is still synonymous with the Deadpool franchise following last summer’s blockbuster Deadpool & Wolverine, his most successful film to date, per industry commentators. Clips of his trademark humor, including his turn in Mint Mobile commercials and ongoing viral videos, continue circulating on social media, with fans dissecting every post and playful jab he shares online.
Notably absent from the 2025 Met Gala alongside Blake Lively, rumors swirled about the reasons. AOL reports that both may be dealing with a challenging legal battle, but as of now, no confirmed details have emerged so the situation remains firmly in the category of speculation.
In sum, this week saw Reynolds in the headlines not for controversy or film drama, but for showing up, doing good, expanding his business legacy, and keeping fans—as always—guessing. The industry is watching to see which hat Ryan Reynolds will wear next.
