Ryan Reynolds BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
Ryan Reynolds made headlines this week for both his personal life and his expanding business ventures. On Sunday, Reynolds and his wife Blake Lively appeared together for the first time on a red carpet since the widely publicized legal dispute involving Lively and Justin Baldoni. The pair attended the SNL 50th Anniversary Special in New York City, with Reynolds opting for a sharp tuxedo and a small floral pin. The public appearance comes as Baldoni’s suit against Lively, Reynolds, and their publicist, alleging civil extortion and defamation, gears up for trial in early 2026. Baldwin’s legal team has promised to release evidence detailing Lively’s alleged actions, while Lively’s camp asserts her claims of sexual harassment and retaliation are backed by concrete facts. The court of public opinion is buzzing, as the legal battle’s details dominate gossip sites and industry columns, setting the stage for long-term fallout that could affect Reynolds and Lively’s professional reputations, depending on what comes to light during trial, as reported by AOL and PEOPLE.
On the business front, the Deadpool star has launched a new wine brand, Ugly Estates, in partnership with Gallo Winery. Reynolds describes the brand as an “underdog” product, packaged unpretentiously in cardboard boxes and now sold exclusively in Minnesota. He told the Star Tribune that Ugly Estates is for people who appreciate both wine and irony, and the marketing campaign leans heavily on his comedic persona, featuring Peggy—the “Pugese” mix who appeared with Reynolds in Deadpool & Wolverine. The launch could be as influential as his previous successes with Aviation Gin and Mint Mobile, companies noted for Reynolds’s savvy marketing and high-value exits. According to the Star Tribune, the wine’s approachable image and tongue-in-cheek slogan “33% more wine, 100% less snob” fit Reynolds’s track record of emotional investment and storytelling in brand building.
From Hollywood to the streaming world, Reynolds was announced this week as co-starring in a new live-action adaptation of Eloise, set for Netflix. The film, based on Kay Thompson’s iconic children’s books, will be directed by Amy Sherman-Palladino, creator of Gilmore Girls. Production starts in London this month, and Netflix’s Hannah Minghella declared that Reynolds brings exactly the kind of mischief and charm Eloise fans expect. This casting adds another major family-friendly role to Reynolds’s filmography and marks his return to working with top creatives on original material, as reported by ABC Audio.
As for social media, Reynolds continues to engage millions, though no viral posts have dominated the last few days. The rollout of Ugly Estates in Minnesota triggered a wave of regional Instagram cheers, and his SNL appearance with Lively drew mostly positive reactions across Twitter and entertainment blogs. While no major Instagram or TikTok controversies surfaced, these activities reflect a carefully cultivated public persona—balancing blockbuster news, entrepreneurial bravado, and family drama.
