12 Perfect 2020 Castings We Can't Wait To See

12. Ryan Reynolds - Free Guy

An exceptionally interesting premise concerning a bank-teller living within an open world video game who suddenly becomes imbued with self-awareness, Free Guy is the sort of film with so much potential that could easily fall flat in the wrong hands. Therefore the casting of perpetual charisma machine, Ryan Reynolds, to carry the film as its lead character seems a masterstroke.

Lending his almost inhuman wit to a story with so much scope and potential immediately make this film a very exciting proposition and should, at worst, elevate to worth seeing for a few laughs. At best, however, in tandem with similar comedy god, Taika Waititi, Reynolds has the ability to make this one of the great comedies of this year.

A great premise and similarly great casting has brought this movie to the fore in terms of hype this year and, if it is executed right, it has the potential to be a masterpiece of action comedy.

While that potential remains just that; there is little doubt the casting of Canada's wittiest son has inflated the clamour for this movie in 2020.
