The Elevator Pitch: A man must save the world from evil imaginary friends.

As well as being one of the funniest actors in Hollywood, Ryan Reynolds is also one of the busiest. On top of The Adam Project, he's also got Deadpool and Free Guy sequels in the works, but arguably his most intriguing upcoming project is this.

Described as a "fantastical comedy", Imaginary Friends will see Reynolds join forces with John Krasinski. The project was involved in a huge bidding war in 2019, and based on that star power - and the movie's concept - it's not hard to see why.

The movie is set to follow a man who can communicate with people's imaginary friends, but in a dark twist, he can also communicate with those that have been forgotten or discarded. Some of these unloved imaginary friends ultimately turn to the dark side, and so it's up to the man to stop them!

With Krasinski acting, directing, writing, and producing - along with Reynolds as an actor and co-producer - the movie should be funny as hell, and we haven't even mentioned that Phoebe Waller-Bridge will be starring in it too.

It's currently being prepped for a 2023 release - so keep your eyes on this one.

Danny has been with WhatCulture for over ten years, and is currently Doctor Who Editor and WhoCulture Channel Manager, overseeing all of WhatCulture's Whoniverse coverage. In 2022, he took charge of WhoCulture and has grown it into the biggest Doctor Who channel on YouTube, and one of the biggest Doctor Who communities on the web full-stop. He has been writing and video editing since his early teens, and first got a taste for content creation after making his own Doctor Who trailers, off the back of a burning obsession with the Matt Smith era of the show. Like many his age, he first got into Doctor Who with the 2005 revival, but has since gone back and fallen in love with the classic years too. If you need someone to recite every Doctor Who episode in order, or to give you a random factoid about the making of Gridlock, Danny is the person to ask!
