In 2011, Ryan Reynolds starred in the suspense thriller Buried. He played a US contractor who awakens to find himself buried alive in a coffin with only a lighter and cell phone at his disposal. The film was well-received by both audiences and critics. It was nominated for several awards, with Ryan Reynolds winning Breakthrough Performance Actor of the Year at the Hollywood Film Awards. If you are a fan trying to reach out to the actor, here are some options to consider.
Connect Through Social Media
While there are many celebrities who don’t maintain a social media account, Ryan is not one of them. He has a Twitter account, @VancityReynolds, through which he connects with fans and promotes the projects he is working on. You can also follow him on Instagram and Facebook. Try dropping a message through the platforms and if you are lucky or creative enough you may get a reply.
Write to The Publicist or Agent
Of course, reaching out through the publicist or agent is always the most authentic way of sending a message. But we advise to take this route only if you are looking to do any time of business or seeking endorsement. It is easier to sign a deal or bring the celebrity to an event through the agent. We don’t have specific details of the publicist or agent, but you can Google for “Ryan Reynolds Talent Agency” and know the current ones. Some of the popular talent agencies that handle Reynolds’ business include APA, Hirsch Wallerstein, and United Talent Agency. There are several paid online databases that allow you to contact any celebrity through their agents, or managers. Do ample research before signing up for one.
Oh, did we mention that Ryan has his own production company? The New York-based Maximum Effort was founded by Ryan in 2018. If you want to make contact with the production company, you can write to themarketeers@maximumeffort.com.
Movie Premieres or Meet-and-Greets
Post-movie premiere meet-and-greets can be a great opportunity to get an autopgraph or say hello to the actor. You can spot Ryan often at public events. He is also very active on social media, making him an easy person to reach out to for promotions or interviews. While networking events are not always an effective method for reaching out to celebrities, they allow you to meet people in the industry who can then pass on details to their clients.
